4.0 out of 5 stars Tuva meets the Velvets, October 1, 2002

This review is from: Yenisei Punk (Audio CD)

This is a weird one: Tuvan throat singing merged with slow, electrified folk/blues arrangements, and a dark tinge of difficult-listening art-rock. There's a strong influence (whether conscious or not) of the Velvet Underground, particularly with the presence of a droning string instrument, rather similar to John Cale's early abrasions with the VUs. If you crave unusual albums, this is one worth tracking down.

This review is from: Yenisei Punk (Audio CD)

Well as most people who come to this page know, Yat Kha is from Tuva and play music with a touch of tuvan tradition to it. As I became very interested in this style of music after watching the movie "Ghengis Blues" I found myself looking for more and more music from this place called Tuva. As I was searching for some pages on the distinctive singing style of Karygyraa from tuva, I came across this band and became extremely interested. Their website is ... They are a truly interesting band that plays with a touch of tradition and a touch of the new. My favourite song so far has been Yenisei Punk which is a song that has a distinct near industrial tone to it. Although they don't seem to have any of this cd in stock right now on north american release you can also order it from them as the import. I would highly recomend this CD.
