Album Notes & Community Reviews

Produced by Steve Albini, the New York-based multinational collective captured the sheer chaotic energy of their legendary live shows on tape. Eugene Hütz's frantic, heavily accented vocal delivery leads a furious collision of traditional Eastern European instrumentation—fiddles and accordions—driven at blinding tempos by a massive punk rhythm section.
