This is my Piñata. It contains basically everything I look for in punk, and actually in music in general. This will skyrocket (is that a verb? I think I learned it in class, but I'm not sure) to my top 30 or something.

Great album! And yes, skyrocket is commonly used as a verb (though it is idiomatic slang).
I guess it's like African folk music vocally, albeit with some pretty poppy moments, over with some dirty funk and some Afrobeat and some electronic sounds bubbling underneath. Hard to explain, but it reminds me of the Talking Heads and last year's Aljawal by Debruit & Alsarah. This is my first listen though so perhaps it's nothing like that. It's interesting so far, but I get the feeling that it thinks it's more revolutionary than it actually is. It's actually a pretty retro album. I don't know, I'll give some more in depth thoughts after a few listens. Nothing I've heard here yet is discouraging me from revisiting it very soon.
EDIT: Just realised that it's on the same record label as Aljawal. Makes a lot of sense. If you've not heard that record, I highly recommend it. Top 10 of 2013 for me.
