Blog-achella 08: More furriner music
More World Music meets Rock combo action...

Who they are: A band from Denver, CO... which doesn't seem all that odd, I mean, I'm sure they have music of some kind in Denver, right? But then...
What they sound like: They, to lift from Amazon "combine Gypsy, Greek, Slavic, and Mariachi influences with American punk and folk roots", and um... I didn't realize that Denver was overrun with Gypsies and assorted other swarthy characters... what did I miss?
What I think: Kinda cool, but can I find time in my Coachella schedule for them? Hellz no! I am a busy man! I have no time for your tepid World Music fusion now, sirs! I bid you good day!
