Gypsy punk band Gogol Bordello are set to release their latest album, 'Super Taranta!' July 10th 2007. I watched Gogol Bordello's televised Glastonbury 2007 performance and thought they were great. They put on an amazing show - one that you can't turn away from when watching as there's so much going on.
Most members of Gogol Bordello are immigrants from eastern Europe and the band hails from New York. They've been playing the festival circuit with many more shows to go this year, so they'll most definitely be gaining more fans along the way.

I've seen these guys live and they are brilliant. They were opening for Manu Chao who is equally as subversive with explosive live sets. Speaking of which, he's coming out with a new album soon as well- his first in 6 years...I'm psyched. You should check him out if you haven't already: http://www.myspace.com/manuchao.
The album's not out until early Sept. but there's an EP you can listen to online now.
