A powerful, haunting, and essential record of modern Jewish Diasporic Folk music. Featuring members of Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Silver Mt. Zion, the album fuses Eastern European and Klezmer traditions with the brooding, cinematic atmosphere of the Montreal post-rock scene. Sung primarily in Yiddish, it explores themes of diaspora, trauma, and politics with a rare, devastating sincerity. The sound is simultaneously archaic and urgently modern, defined by acoustic strings (violin, bass), clarinet, cymbalom, and Scott Levine Gilmore's baritone vocals.
