Gogol Bordello - Multi Kontra Culti Vs Irony - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The sound of New York?s Gogol Bordello is a combination of reckless fervor, foot-stomping rhythms, outlandish lyrics and a circus of surreal stimuli that leaves progressive minded music fans spinning in the their wake. Drawing upon Gypsy, Slavic and punk-rock traditions, Gogol Bordello is the genesis of a new aesthetic that bridges the gap between Eastern European and Gypsy influence with Western culture. This new direction in music is singer/lyricist/visionary Eugene Hutz?s passion, who uses the term InchUkrainian Gypsy Punk CabaretInch to describe their singular sound. InchThe title of the new album sums of the spirit of the band and the people around it. Gogol Bordello is about creating new musical possibilities. We all come from a very distinct tradition of music that is largely driven by Eastern European sounds, visions and colors as well as punk rock and street culture. We?re a multicultural unit with an underdog energy and a sense of humor, although a pretty twisted one,Inch says Hutz.
