Gogol Bordello is a New York–based gypsy punk band led by Ukrainian-born frontman Eugene Hütz, known for blending punk rock with Romani, Balkan and Eastern European folk elements.

Formed in New York City around 1999 and fronted by Eugene Hütz. Their 2005 album Gypsy Punks (Underdog World Strike) was produced by Steve Albini (as noted in DeBaser reviews).

DeBaser reviews present Gogol Bordello as a high-energy gypsy punk collective led by Eugene Hütz. Their live shows are repeatedly praised for chaotic joy and audience interaction. Key studio highlights in the reviews are Gypsy Punks (2005) and Super Taranta (2007). Later work divides opinion, with some critics calling recent albums overproduced.

For:Fans of punk and world-music fusion, live-show seekers, listeners who enjoy Balkan/Romani-influenced rock.

 The strange story of Gogol Bordello: the band was born from the union of Eastern European immigrants, among whom the mustached singer Eugene Hutz stands out.

 It’s a circus show in all respects: two Asian girls appear on stage as well, one with a large drum, and another with cymbals, accompanying this group of curious wanderers who know well how to entertain; the show continues for about two hours, pause included, they let us listen to two tracks from the upcoming album "SuperTaranta" and ends with a track from "Gypsy Punks..." lasting a quarter of an hour, becoming an unstoppable taranta that excites the audience and the singer himself, who steals the drum from the girl to throw it among the people, places it horizontally, climbs on it, and continues to sing, his staggering with the drum supported by the audience resembles that of a castaway trying to stay upright on a tiny raft.
