 **JULY 19, 2022 (New York, NY) — **“This is music of survival and perseverance.
That’s always been our main driving force,” declares **GOGOL BORDELLO **frontman**
Eugene Hutz** about their new album _**SOLIDARITINE**_ (release date: **September
16, 2022 **_via_** Casa Gogol/Cooking Vinyl**).  “We just want to give the world
a timeless album with messages of human potential and power.”  Their eighth full-
length album is inspired by survival in the face of adversity – a theme that can
be applied to the pandemic just as much as it can be applied to the war going on
in his native Ukraine.

“Our music was always about perseverance,” exclaims Eugene. “Rock ‘n’ roll comes
out of a real place. Take a group of people who have endured immigrant traumas and
dislocation. They create music, get successful together, become more baroque and
experimental, and experience some years of relative calm. All of a sudden, humankind
encounters these problems like the pandemic and the war. This is when rock ‘n’ roll
is the most necessary and where we perform the best.”

The seven piece of mixed heritage from locations such as Ukraine, Ecuador, and Russia
have consistently riled up audiences with an inimitable patchwork of punk, gypsy,
dub, folk, Latin swing, and Eastern European magic. With the more hardcore leanings
of _SOLIDARITINE_, the sense of urgency and a fresh bolt of energy returns the band
to their incendiary beginnings while keeping their agit prop leanings front and 
center.  Tapping New York underground icon **Walter Schreifels **(_Gorilla Biscuits,
Rival Schools, Quicksand_) for the producer seat, Gogol dove deep into the studio
and emerged with a album rife with the insurgent sound of survival.  “The album 
is really about uniting the people of goodwill,” he reveals. “Releasing any kind
of art that doesn’t address the situation in Ukraine right now would be pretty despicable.”

**Gogol Bordello “Focus Coin”**

Dusting off a handful of the punkier tracks that were originally recorded for their
last album _Seekers & Finders_, Eugene and crew recorded 13 tracks of unbridled 
energy. The opening track “**Shot of Solidaritine**” kicks off acoustically before
launching into a raucous sprint at a breakneck pace. Gogol takes the post-hardcore
classic “**Blueprint**” by Fugazi and injects their trademark Eastern European stomp.**
H.R. of Bad Brains** guested on “**The Era of the End of Eras**,” blessing the track
with a cameo punctuated by a key moment from the Bad Brains anthem “Sailin’ On.”
He smiles, _“_Walter and I were in tears when H.R. sent it in.”  Their new single“**
Focus Coin**” embraces the punk spirit that fueled Eugene’s creativity streak throughout
_SOLIDARITINE _which Eugene explains, “The quality of your ability to focus defines
everything in your life and that’s exactly what the first single, ‘Focus Coin’ is
about. Your focus is the hardest currency there is.”

“**Forces of Victory**” which features award-winning Ukrainian poet and novelist**
Serhiy Zhadan **and electrofolk band **Kazka**, explodes with dizzying acoustic 
guitars and violin, charging forward at lightspeed before crashing into an uplifting
verse kickstarted by fits of electric guitar. “It’s a very extreme hardcore number,
but here’s the mystical part of it,” he observes. “It originally appeared on _Super
Taranta!_ [Gogol Bordello’s classic 4th studio album] When we recorded the first
version of it, a lot of things were unintentionally empty. Entire chunks of the 
song are instrumental. This year, the words came to me in like five seconds for 
those parts, and they were distinctly about dignity, integrity, and resilience. 
The righteous cause of Ukraine is undeniable.”

**Gogol Bordello “Forces of Victory”**

Formed in 1999, Gogol Bordello took their style of Eastern European-influenced gypsy
punk and doused it deep into the underground rock of New York City. Imminently beginning
a U.S. tour (_tour dates below_), Gogol Bordello have been praised for their recorded
material but especially heaped with accolades about their live shows. **Wall Street
Journal** raved about the band’s live performance saying, “Gogol Bordello mashed
punk energy with Eastern European modes for a set that received the wildest reception
of any show I saw,” while **Los Angeles Times** said, “Gogol Bordello celebrates
sensuality in both words and raucous, joyful internationalist dance rock.” **Pitchfork**
proclaimed, “Eugene Hutz and his acoustic guitar slapping (think Les Claypool’s 
hands, but on a six-string) and waving arms summoned the crowd which quadrupled 
in size by the set’s fourth song. Festival goers were literally running toward the
stage”** **while **Consequence** hailed “the ever-evolving collective has defied
the boundaries of continents and genres in their quest for spiritual illumination
through gypsy punk.”

“I started playing punk rock as a kid. So, I was going back to it,” Eugene adds 
about the overall explosiveness of the new album.  “I realized music was a really
great way to levitate above all of these trials of life.”
