TEARS OF INJUSTICE [LP]

If Mdou Moctar's previous album Funeral for Justice was the sound of outrage, Tears of Injustice is the sound of grief. Mdou's new album is Funeral for Justice completely re-recorded and rearranged for acoustic and traditional instruments. It is an evolution of the band's critically adored breakout - the meditative mirror-image to the blistering original. Praise for Funeral For Justice: "An amps-on-11 polemical masterpiece that warrants worldwide respect" - MOJO (****) "Screaming guitars and lyrics decrying the legacy of colonialism in Niger and throughout Africa" - New York Times "The proud sound of rebellion" - Pitchfork (8.4 - Best New Music) "The band's most forceful album yet, tailor-made to melt minds at massive festivals" - Rolling Stone (****)
