The sights and sounds of the gypsy-punk phenomenon captured in two explosive discs.
The ultimate nod to its fans, Gogol Bordello’s latest release is a CD/DVD double-shot of high-octane folk-rock at its best. The musical half of this potent multi-ethnic juggernaut is a much-coveted collection of rarities and B-sides gleaned from the cutting room floor of the band’s infamously raucous recording sessions for Gypsy Punk and Super Taranta!. Previously unheard versions of "Roumania," "Stivali E Colbacco," the dizzying "60 Revolutions" demo and an instrumental rendition of the crowd-pleaser "Immigrant Punk” are guaranteed to get your blood pumping. Add six tracks recorded on BBC Radio One and the undeniable pleasure of seeing the troupe in action with a DVD of live footage taken from two sold-out nights at Irving Plaza in New York City in 2007, and Live From Axis Mundi is almost as good as being there.
