Black Ox Orkestar
Nisht Azoy CD/LP
The second record by Montreal's Black Ox Orkestar places the group at the forefront of a ‘new Jewish music’ that rejects contemporary fusion and musty nostalgia in equal measure. With backgrounds in folk, punk-rock and free jazz, the group's four musicians distill Balkan, Central Asian, Arabic and Slavic sources into a coherent, impassioned sound that gives teeth to old Jewish songs.
