K A L - Radio Romanista (New Album)

They have the trilbies, baggy suits, accordions and fiddles of traditional gypsy bands, but this Serbian outfit also like Fender guitars and beatbox. Taking the Clash as a role model, their charismatic frontman Dragan Ristic describes their sound as "Rock'n'Roma", and their runaway rhythms and lightning-fast playing come fronted by angry lyrics about the marginalisation of Roma people. This second album, more raw-edged than 2006's debut, reflects their live show, swinging between high-energy pieces like Turkish Blues and sentimental cabaret excursions Laj laj and Luna. There are numerous guests, lashings of vocal scats and an irrepressible sense of a band on top of its mission. - The Observer
