Gogol Bordello /Gypsy Punks Underdog World Strike
Recorded with Steve Albini in glorious analog sound, this record expands this NYC band's fusion of gypsy punk and Slavic stomp with a touch of metal and dub-wise sound effects that pay tribute to the classic sounds of Jamaica. This collective continue their cultural crusade to bridge gypsy music, rock 'n' roll, and other brands of rebel music from Flamenco to the perestroika punk that blossomed in Eastern Europe in the mid-80's. Side One Dummy. 2005.
