Album Notes & Community Reviews

Approaching their fortieth anniversary as an active band, the legendary Dutch underground collective proves their improvisational punk fire remains entirely undiminished. The project is an exhilarating, highly rhythmic collision of African-inspired percussion, dissonant dual-guitar interplay, and pointed political spoken-word. It stands as a brilliant testament to the group's endless creative curiosity and unwavering anti-establishment ethos.
