      ​@@alohacentauri "nationalistic" gets no argument but a laugh
      "chauvinistic" is a weak attempt. Nowhere do they infer anything about one gender or group being superior to another. Their society may have strict gender roles, that would not imply misogyny or oppression.
      "glorification of violence" because they talk about their nation's historical pride as warriors is just an extremely lame thing to say. Go ahead and write a similar comment on _every single other song_ that has a reference to violence. I'd love you to be ridiculed a million times over for your petty immature shots at talented artists. A simple statement about their pride gets this pettiness, meanwhile there are _countless_ songs that actually talk about extreme violence. There are entire genres of music based around violence. Seriously, go write a similar comment on them all... then go back later and read all the replies. An opportunity for you to learn and grow.
      Immature and inexperienced youngsters shouldn't try talking about morality in the first place. Every facet of life includes violence in some form, so quit making talking about things you don't understand.
      Offence was _obviously intended_ because your argument is petty and grasping at straws. You sound like a wannabe who can only criticize, but you're german so good chance you're also a racist. Actually, taking petty and uncalled for shots, the certain _social_ direction of your criticisms... yeah, you're smelling like a racist wannabe to me.

    Due to their nomadic lifestyle, they have been exploited time and time again, in a seemingly endless loop of war and seeking refuge..

    As a big fan of Tinariwen and Mdou Moctar, it's always awesome to see other (especially older) artists in the same sphere get a big break here in the west. Each release is another window into a genre with such a rich history that I want to learn everything I can about it, but get so few opportunities that each one is extremely valuable.

    I clicked on this simply because of the thumbnail. Didn't exactly know what to expect, and insanely groovy blues rock was absolutely not my prediction but this is killer! These dudes know how to jam, and it's so clear they're having a blast with it. The algorithm hath blessed us once again brothers and sisters!

    My late father would've loved this! He'd be 74 if still alive. I inherited his taste in music. He had me listening to zulu music in the early 80s. He loved the Bhundu Boys. Not bad for a working class man from Ireland.

      Your daddy really had great taste in music. Have you listened to Paul Simon's Graceland album and the live concert? If you haven't, check it out. You'll love it.
