Alamaailman Vasarat

It's later than it should be, I have a cold and i'm struggling to think straight, but aiding me towards a gentle restful sleep is the gypsy-jazz-metal-klezmer-punk-cabaret of Finland's Alamaailman Vasarat (Hammers of the Underworld). I'm so happy bands like this exist, let alone have 4 amazingly produced albums out. Somewhere out there are open-minded people who are willing to FUND this stuff! They claim the music they play has its roots in the traditional music of their own continent, Vasaraasia. Oh and that's not guitars you hear it's two distorted cellos...
