Gulag Orkestar Beirut SKU: CAD2833 Barcode: 652637283310 16.00 £16.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: 4AD Released Date: 25th February 2008 Buying Format: 180g 1LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info The debut of singer/multi-instrumentalist Zach Condon (aka Beirut), 2006’s Gulag Orkestar marked the arrival of a precocious talent. It’s a lushly arranged album that reveals Condon’s unabashed adoration of Eastern European folk music, gilded with swaying accordion lines, rapturous string passages, and jangling percussion that seem wholly rooted in traditional Slavic music (see the waltz-like “Prenzlauerberg”) — making its creation by a young Europhile from New Mexico that much more impressive. Condon sings in a low warble that recalls Magnetic Fields’ Stephin Merritt, showcasing his unrestrained flair for drama on tracks such as the tense “Brandenburg” and the swooning “Scenic World.” Effectively displaying Condon’s considerable abilities, Gulag Orkestar is a fully formed first outing sure to appeal to fans of ornate and adventurous indie pop. ~ Eric Schneider Artist Beirut Genre World / Fusion Label 4AD Buying Options 180g 1LP Format 180g , 1LP Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings 1.
