VARIOUS ARTISTS Another World Is Possible Producer: Arnaud Frisch Uncivilized World 1 Release Date: Oct. 18
Hard-hitting political commentary and block-rocking beats mix merrily on this smart and savvy compilation critiquing globalization. From fabulous reimaginings of the Clash- popularized "Police on My Back" (courtesy of the United Kingdom's Asian Dub Foundation) and "Lost in the Supermarket" (revisited by Sarajevo-based Emir Kusturica) to the elegiac lullaby electronica of Grandaddy's "Wives of Farmers" and globetrotter Manu Chao's happily nutty "La Trampa," there is plenty of musical nourishment here. However, this album also includes a great deal of food for thought, thanks to the inclusion of some highly impassioned and intriguing essays from some of today's most influential activists and writers, including Noam Chomsky and Arundhati Roy. --AT 10/29/05
