CD - Mahjongg - Long Shadow Of the Paper Tiger

N-CD Mahjongg - Long Shadow Of the Paper Tiger

Available


Price: 11.99

New CD - Mahjongg - Long Shadow Of the Paper Tiger - K released Mahjongg's last long-player, "Kontpab", which we loved. It's become our favorite Mahjongg record actually. Here's their description of the follow-up, "The Long Shadow Of The Paper Tiger":
"Mahjongg is basically a bar band who got lucky. With The Long Shadow of the Paper Tiger they will rule 2010. Their previous album Kontpab announced a big noise in the music scene of 2008. Since then, they’ve partied around the world and come back to invent a new style of music they call Chicagotronics: a wall of sound command center with drums and humans. They sing together and dance all crazy and there’s this laser going. It’s great. The Long Shadow of the Paper Tiger features their first protest song (“Grooverider Free”), which is actually an extended version of a previous single (Pun alert: “Free Grooverider”). Following a closing gurgle-sax on “Gooble,” comes “Miami Knights” where our dance detectives take that smooth boat through choppy waters. The album continues with layers of keyboards, guitars, and percussion parts that wind around each other almost like a fugue -- an intrinsic groove that rarely fails to amaze and inspire. No one with ears will listen and be depressed."
We're not really sure what the "Mahjongg is basically a bar band who got lucky" comment is all about, especially since their definitely not a "bar band" and we're also not really sure what luck has to do with whatever success they've had, but the rest of the K description is astute. Fans of their previous records, especially the most dancefloor friendly stuff, will totally get down to "The Long Shadow of the Paper Tiger". We have been.
