Gogol

Gogol Bordello are out with the video to their new single 'American Wedding', from the New York City Gypsy punk band's fourth album 'Super Taranta!', out now on Side One Dummy. Watch it below the fold.

1. Coheed & Cambria regresa a México. Como parte de su gira la cual presenta su más reciente produccion 'Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume Two: No World for Tomorrow', la banda actuará nuevamente en el Lunario del Auditorio Nacional el próximo 17 de Mayo. Según su Myspace, los boletos tendrán o tienen (?), no entendí bien, un costo de $450. 2. El Vive Latino 2008 (nuestro orgullo... jaja) de vez en cuando deja que desfilen bandas de otro público, como The Mars Volta en 2004, The Magic Numbers en 2007, y parece ser que este año colocará en uno de sus escenarios a Gogol Bordello. Creo que este año ahora sí voy, aun que sea un ratito de 35 minutos. Esta información salió de Chema en Twitter y se lo apañaron en 10:1 desde ayer. 3. La última, Rodrigo & Gabriela

Bordello’s got some wit, sure; the hysterical “American Wedding” (“Have you ever been to American wedding?/ Where is the vodka, where is marinated herring?”) and the cynical “Your Country” (“Your country raised you/ Your country fed you/ And just like any other country it will break you”) are proof that frontman/songwriter Eugene Hütz is actually a very clever man with some intelligence.

Thanks to FijneWIET"Gypsy Punks Underdog World Strike" -- a mad mixture of gypsy, punk, reggae, Latin and who knows what else. It's more than a little insane, as it spins without warning from one style to the next. But the energy and spirit make that a good kind of insanity.

One of the best bands at Bonnaroo a few weeks back was Gogol Bordello, a group I'd never heard prior to its show. The band’s gypsy punk rocked, it was fun and full of energy, and the lead singer played Elijah Wood’s buddy in Everything is Illuminated. Good times all around. Now, the band has abandoned the much smaller Scottish T in the Park festival to play Live Earth on July 7.

We started wearing purple, wearing purple on their previous record Gypsy Punks Underdog World Strike.. Now on Super Taranta!, we are all going to be drunk! Super Taranta! has long playing lentgh, and a lot of Gogol Bordello's same gypsy punk goes here and there. Alcohol which is the most alcoholic and moody song of the record is my favorite cut.

Trupa americana de gypsy punk (dupa cum isi spun ei) vine pe 25 mai in Romania. Asa scrie aici. Cine poate sa se duca. Cine nu (si aici intervine partea in care eu ma oftic) nu. Niste melodii de-ale lor aici.

(6:51) link These "gypsy punks," as the band jubilantly describes itself, were once precisely that, a spectacular clash of cultures that smashed the exuberance of Ukrainian gypsy music and the pounding rhythms and exhilarating fire of Slavic folk, with the roar of punk rock. That was then, but now globalization has got them in its grip, and Gogol Bordello set about crashing through national boundaries, reconnecting the cultural links borders have severed.
