These guys are kind of a one trick pony. "American Wedding" is a fun track, but the rest of the album pretty much blends together. Not a lot of variety here. Still a unique sound worthy of a listen.

This is the best Gogol Bordello album to date. While Gypsy Punks: Underdog World Strike had some of their best songs, this has a more raw, yet cohesive sound. Both are great albums and I recommend both. Highlights of the album include Ultimate, Wonderlust King, Forces Of Victory and American Wedding.
Douglas D. gave it a9:
Fun, energy, melody. American Wedding is the best music ever. ST! is the best Gogol Bordello's album so far.

This album is flat out fantastic. I knew of "Start wearing purple" from some years ago. That's all I had heard from these guys. Until this album came along and just blew me away. I listened for the first time, then two hours later I decided I should stop and take a shower. So, I grabbed my towel but I had to play one more song to keep fresh in mind, for my activity in the stall of cascading chlorinated tapwater. It did not work out. I sat there and played the album thru twice more with a towel over my shoulders. I love it with wonderlust, and I've gotta see these guys live.

I have been hooked on this band since I saw them in an ex-polka hall on the East Side of Cleveland. Now they are a bigger deal playing bigger halls and they have not lost a bit of their fan-friendly showmanship nor has lead singer Hutz lost his political edge or partying glee. This album doesn't reinvent their sound and that is a good thing. Bring on more gigs! This is a show that has to be seen live to really believe in them.
Kostas G gave it a10:
Ok. This is for me the album of the year so far. Give it a few listens and I'm sure that it will reward you. At last something different. And it's sure better than Gypsy Punks which was an amazing album.
