The Unternationale
Daniel Kahn's and Psoy Korolenko's ideologically terroristic Unternationale has become a classic in modern yiddish song.
Old pieces from the yiddish world are being translated into English and Russian, taken to pieces and reassembled in contemporary cultural and political contexts. The result? A record full of -isms: social-, zion-, antizion-, satan-, modern-, commun-, chassid-, alcohol-. Sung, rapped and shouted. A record that backs up its political messages with one thing foremost: loads of fun. And dancing mood.
