Playmusic Magazine, CD Review >>
By Tom Jackson
This global mash-up from the awkward squad is fueled by a righteous anger that smells like pure rock’n’roll. Only this mob know what they want and how to get it. Their course, according to notes in the handsome 50-page booklet, “...to foster the emergence of a planet in which resources are shared in equity, a world where human rights take precedence over market rule, where people come before profits.” The music goes like cartel-busters: a short sharp Femi Kuti who wants to be free from all this Yeah-Yeah Politics; a deeply unlikely shouty version of the Clash’s Lost in the Supermarket by Sarajevo’s Emir Kusturica & The No Smoking Orchestra; a gob of gnawa-punk from No One is Innocent with ONB. Then a run of chillers: Grandaddy, Moby, Nitin Sawhney and Massive Attack. As current as the daily papers and as necessary as oxygen. 11/02/05 >> go there
