KINAPORIN KALIFAATTI (WITH TUOMARI NURMIO)

Yeah, it's not fair to give two stars to such a great band, but hey, what they did here on "Kinaporin Kalifaatti" does not concern the progressive community (for what i think it is). Pairing with folk singer Tuomari Nurmio, you will hardly find on this new album the amazing collison of genre that Alamaailman Vasart was know for. This is almost straight rock with flavours of local folklore with a bit of klezmer thrown in the mix. The musicianship is still pristine but would definitely satisfies more people into Tom Waits or Nick Cave...
