I'm surprised you didn't list Gogol Bordello.
I would definitely have listed Emir Kusturica & the No Smoking Orchestra before Gogol Bordello to cover the Balkans.

Fuck, wait... I didn't list Emir Kusturica. Oh well.

Right now it has been mostly Dubstep and old ska/reggae from the 60's 70's. There is a good show on WKCR(Columbia University radio station) From 6am-10am every saturday morning, really some choice cuts played.

I did listen to a lot of rock but nothing new has really been interesting to me, dream theater was the last band I was really listening to but I don't really like their newer stuff. Favorite musicians are Les Claypool, Mike Portnoy, Neil Pert, Zappa, John Lydon and too many others to name right now.

Dude whatEVER.. Forces of Victory is easily in the top 20 most innovative and rocking songs of all time. Alcohol is the best love song I have ever heard.

Some of their shit kind of sucks, but honestly, they are great musicians and inventive songwriters for sure.

They are a hell of a lot of fun, sure, and I was really quite into them many years ago.

But...

This isn't in F&R so I'll keep it civil: There are *so* many other songs out there with more soul, more sexiness, more gut-wrenching loneliness, more whimsical glee than that. That you'd even indirectly almost quasi-insinuate that Otis Redding love songs are inferior compared to Gogol Bordello gets a /boggle from me.

And as for this:

Double boggle. Plastic People of the Universe tho? Hasil Adkins tho? Captured by Robots tho? Virtually all Krautrock tho? Metalmachinemusik tho? Link Wray tho?

I hope you have Soulseek. Let's share, k?
