Gogol Bordello Release Rarities, Live Tracks on CD/DVD, Tour North America with Apostle of Hustle

BY Josiah HughesPublished Aug 27, 2009

New York-based Eastern European gypsy punks Gogol Bordello are known as much for their albums as their berserk live show. It only makes sense, then, that they would prepare a DVD release of their in-concert antics, and that's just what they've done.

Titled Live From Axis Mundi, the release will include footage taken from two sold-out shows the band played in New York back in 2007. The DVD will also include behind-the-scene footage, known as "bonus chronicles," and the band's entire collection of music videos.

The set will also come bundled with a CD of demos, unreleased tracks, rarities and radio appearances, and be out on October 6 through SideOneDummy.

But the one thing better than watching a concert at home is seeing it in real life, as a number of Canadians will get to do when Gogol Bordello pair up with Apostle of Hustle on their upcoming North American tour. Kicking off in Winnipeg on October 3, the bands will play more Canadian shows in Saskatoon, Calgary and Edmonton before concluding their Canadian dates with a double bill in Vancouver. From there, they'll hit up the U.S. and then Europe.
