Trans-Continental Hustle combines the band’s radical invocations of positive primal energy and planetary consciousness with music infused with Ska, Metal, Punk, Rap, Dub and intimations of indigenous Brazilian sounds to produce a party maelstrom of electrifying proportions. Led by revolutionary change agent and provocateur Eugene Hutz, Gogol Bordello, a nine-piece juggernaut of gypsy rebel soul, has become an international force to be reckoned with.
The politically charged Eastern European folk-punk rock outfit’s fifth full-length offering was produced by fellow facial hair connoisseur Rick Rubin. Influenced by frontman Eugene Hutz’s recent relocation to Brazil, Trans-Continental Hustle adds the colors of Carnival to the Gypsy caravan.

Professional Reviews
Rolling Stone (p.70) – 3.5 stars out of 5 — “Everyone is on point: Accordion and fiddle rock as hard as guitars and drums; rhythms from Brazil blend with breakneck Eastern European dances and D.C.-style hardcore.”
Spin – 3.5 stars out of 5 — “Hutz’s minor-key odes to erotic revolution and cosmic evolution still pack a heady, sweaty punch.”
Alternative Press (p.105) – 3 stars out of 5 — “‘Break The Spell’ and ‘We Comin’ Rougher (Immigraniada)’ show Gogol Bordello haven’t completely forsaken four-on-the-floor folk-punk.”
CMJ – “HUSTLE relies on acoustic instrumentation and Hutz’s strengthened songwriting. ‘Sun Is On My Side’ shows Gogol Bordello’s metamorphosis into a modern-day, urban bard…”
Billboard (p.37) – “Wild, passionate opener ‘Pala Tute’ — a gypsy folk tune translated into English — features galloping acoustic guitars among fiery accordion and fiddle runs…”
Uncut (magazine) (p.108) – 3 stars out of 5 — “[I]f Gogol Bordello still sound like an Eastern European answer to The Pogues, it still means they’re doing something nobody else is.”

Somewhere around the turn of the 21st century, guys like David Gray (who’d already been laboring in obscurity for quite a while) and Five For Fighting made it hip (and profitable) to be a sensitive singer-songwriter for the first time since the ’70s. Along those lines, John Mayer appeals to the kind of youngsters who are embarrassed by their parents’ Dan Fogelberg collection but equally turned off by vociferous gangstas and misanthropic heavy rockers. ROOM FOR SQUARES (whose very title, not to mention Mayer’s studied regular-guy cover pose, bespeaks the revenge of the nerds) accordingly trades in acoustic guitar-based folk-rock tempered with just enough 21st-century freshness to keep its practitioner in the Billboard charts (and his listeners’ hearts). That’s not to say Mayer’s music is calculated; he’s got a real feel for melody and a distinctive lyrical style. He also managed to be in the right place at the right time, and that’s the key to any pop success.

Radiohead’s fifth album is possibly the album that OK Computer fans were hoping for instead of the experimental tunes showcased on Kid A. The 11 tracks reveal the band still embracing their new found interest in experimentalism, yet with more of an eye on the sort of tunefulness that brought the massive response to both The Bends and OK Computer.The much vaunted Knives Out will be the one that brings back those fans which were lost on Kid A, as will the disturbing Morning Bell/ Amnesiac and the first single, the unnerving Pyramid Song.
The great work on Kid A has not been banished however, with Like Spinning Plates and Hunting Bears being standout tracks. The album also reveals a new side to Radiohead with Life In A Glasshouse showing their keenness to embrace a brass section led by the multi-talented Humphrey Lyttelton.
A fascinating album with a rich selection. Not as immediately user friendly as earlier albums, but with just as much depth and passion.

THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE confirmed U2 as one of a handful of bands able to tackle such vast and emotive subjects with dignity and musical integrity. There are few artists capable of writing about religion, war, race, politics, and life with such ferocity and global commercial success. ‘Pride (In The Name Of Love)’, an elegy for Martin Luther King, was a breakout hit, and every track–wrapped in the Edge’s impressionistic guitar splashes–reveals a quartet hungry for the world stage. The production by Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois was a taste of things to come.

BLUE SKY MINING continues in the revered Australian band’s tradition of politically charged rock, while expanding on the fuller, accessible sound of the earlier outing. The record features three international hits–the urgent “Blue Sky Mine” (one of many numbers that stays true to Midnight Oil’s working-class empathy), the pensive “Forgotten Years,” and the upbeat “King of the Mountain”–with the latter two songs proving to be some of the most melodic material of the group’s career. Other highlights of the album include “Mountains of Burma,” a track that exemplifies frontman Peter Garrett’s brooding charisma, and “River Runs Red,” which showcases Jim Moginie and Martin Rotsey’s distinctive and underrated guitar playing. Although BLUE SKY proved to be the ceiling of the ensemble’s popularity, Midnight Oil soldiered on until its dissolution in 2002, leaving this record to stand as one of its finest moments.

LET IT DIE with an almost voyeuristic atmosphere, akin to hearing someone singing herself to sleep. On the bluesy spiritual “Lonely Lonely,” rhythmic handclaps and sparsely picked guitar accompany Feist’s haunting lilt, invoking the ghosts of Appalachia, while the Bee Gees’ “Love You Inside Out” (here titled “Inside and Out”) is set to an up-tempo disco beat. Feist’s vocal agility enables her to sing straight French cabaret on “Tout Doucement” and smooth, soulful jazz on “Gatekeeper.” The song that will make the tears fall, though, is the 1930s-esque, cinematic piano ballad “Now at Last,” in which Feist dreamily sings “What makes winters lonely?/Now at last I know.”

Johnson’s songs are simultaneously well crafted and executed in an almost throwaway manner. “Fortunate Fool” is airy yet acidic–this surfer dude is no airhead–while “F-Stop Blues,” on the surface a paean to the surfer lifestyle, is really a lament for wasted time that features Johnson’s pleasant, lazy vocals to excellent effect. BRUSHFIRE FAIRYTALES displays the kind of insouciance born of innocence, almost as if no-one involved cared if the album sold ten copies or ten million–and of course that’s the attraction.

FINAL STRAW, the group’s major-label debut, finds Snow Patrol expanding its indie-rock guitar-based sound with greater focus on keyboards, strings, and fuller production values (courtesy of Garret Lee). Lightbody’s charming vocals and lyrics provide the band’s emotional center, as best evidenced on the wistful opener “How to Be Dead” and the slowly building “Run.” Although Snow Patrol knows its way around quiet melancholy, the ensemble is also capable of rocking out (”Spitting Games,” “Chocolate”), revealing an aesthetic that places the group squarely in the ranks of Coldplay, Travis, and other Britpop luminaries.

With 2009’s FURTHER COMPLICATIONS, former Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker follows up his well-received solo debut with a considerably randier and more rocked-out set. Aiding the Britpop icon on this edgier outing is none other than noise-loving American producer Steve Albini, best known for his work with the Pixies and Nirvana, who succeeds in creating a more rough-and-tumble aesthetic for Cocker, as most readily heard on the spiky title track and the stomping “Caucasian Blues.” Always one for a glam-tinged tune, Cocker lets loose on the bawdy “Angela” and the raucous “Homewrecker,” which fittingly features the signature sax stylings of Stooges associate Steve Mackay. Like Nick Cave’s Grinderman project, COMPLICATIONS is the sound of Cocker letting his hair down (and, apparently, his beard out), and, though it may perplex some some Pulp diehards, it’s undeniably vital and entertaining.

Entertainment Weekly (p.57) – “[T]he raucousness of ‘Homewrecker!’ or the title track will come as a definite surprise to longtime Cocker watchers…” — Grade: B+

While the delightfully silly opener, “Hiroshima (B B B Benny Hit His Head),” is a particularly obvious nod to Elton John, one of the many dynamic pop keyboardists Ben Folds has frequently been compared to (also see: Billy Joel, Todd Rundgren), WAY TO NORMAL brings to mind another pianist who rose to power in the 1970s. With its quirky, witty wonderings about the neuroses of love and God and country, Folds’s third record recalls Randy Newman post-LITTLE CRIMINALS–bright, bouncy, and buoyant, yet subtly twisted.
On “You Don’t Know Me,” Folds softly trades a cooing call-and-response with Regina Spektor, as perfect rapport and playful rhapsody disguise lyrics of human isolation in destructive love. The ultra-hooky “Brainwascht” fools around in the “You’re So Vain” vein as Folds continues a beef with an unnamed busybody songwriter friend, all while a deceptively perky Bacharach-esque plays behind him. While he’s still able to romp in the just plain goofy style that originally brought him attention in the Ben Folds Five days, particularly on the pun-happy Midwest walkabout “Effington,” Folds is at his mature best when confronting exhausted honesty as on closing track, “Kylie From Connecticut.”

Entertainment Weekly (p.76) – “[T]he piano man pounds the ivories with undiminished fervor — and lyrical venom….Folds shows off his gentler side on the confessional tune ‘You Don’t Know Me’…” — Grade: B+
Mojo (Publisher) (p.102) – 3 stars out of 5 — “Folds crashes about on piano and throws in string arrangements that lurch from melancholy to chaotic discord…”
Paste (magazine) (p.56) – “These 12 songs are more of an anthropological study of aberrant human behavior, idiosyncratic news stories and bizrre chapers of the musician’s own autobiography, all observed with the same unstinting absurdist eye as J.D. Salinger when he penned NINE STORIES more than 50 years ago.”
