This spirited debut hits the ground running and doesn't let up for a moment.
It's a fizzing cocktail of funked-up flamenco and Manu Chao-style pop/rock which owes as much to Ojos de Brujo as it does to the Clash.
Frontman DiMascio sings with a Bolanesque croon while strumming his acoustic with finger-bleeding intensity, and although much of the material has a political slant, there's no proselytising; these guys want to party while they're saving the world.
Pick of the album: Is 'We the People' the most cheerful protest song ever?
