The sophomore Multi Kontra Culti Vs. Irony is a much more realized record: Bordello's blend of punk, folk, cabaret and what the russians call "cruel romance" music is now smoother and more organic. Alas, as the band blew up in the intervening years, so did its ultimate ambition to become the world's next Manu Chao. A mere party record wouldn't cut it, and judging from the successes of Clandestino and Antibalas, we like our funk cut up with agitprop. Hutz and Co. are only too happy to oblige, and Multi Kontra Culti finds the crew deploying their ESL vocabulary in the service of vague political tirades.
