Synopsis

Album Description
"A hot, pulsing Middle Eastern beat for a Jah Wobble-esque sound ... evoking belly dancers in opium dens." -- ANODYNE

"The sound of mizmars, accordion, and violins and the rhythms of rock, ska, and funk collide on this fifteen-song disc." -- LA TIMES

"Heart of the Beast beats with passion, skill, and admirable inclusiveness." -- THE OREGONIAN

This fifteen-song CD reflects the band's turn to electric and eclectic world music. There is the ever-present focus on the Middle East, but also pinches of reggae, rock, funk, Latin, blues, Celtic, and more.
