Sounds Like: in our time we've gone all the way from skank-tastic gypsy punk to dub techno via the hip-hop tune bob dylan and the band never quite got around to making. one minute it's spaghetti western trance, the next arabic gospel country-blues. these days we're in an eclectic ambient downtempo trip-hoppy sort of mode, ideal chill-out music, kind of like philip glass jamming with early orb.
