Brilliant. It sounds like a film score out of a Jap WW II propaganda movie. Love the vocals and the percussion work, have always had a weak spot for Jap instrumentation and melodies (isn't it so that their scales miss a note or two compared to Western ones, making their melodies sound more folksy and naive?).
Amazing how they all sit there kneeling/cross-legged, even their singers. They would have to carry me out after an hour or so in that position.
That three string fretless banjo-like instrument, what is it called and how is it tuned? Looks like us bassists could have a bit of fun with it. Gibson are you listening?!
