This 15-song full length album is a stunning document of two years of songs from Brooklyn's favorite brass-punk-folk band. The songs draw from many influences: Balkan brass, New Orleans funk, moody Americana, rootsy old folk, and 20's jazz; all with the attitude and volume of punk and hardcore. Fans of Beirut, DeVotchKa, Gogol Bordello, and Dark Dark Dark should take heed. But you don't have to take our word for it: “Their upcoming album Ballads of the End Times promises to be another winning entry in the canon of Eastern European-influenced rockers like Gogol Bordello and DeVotchKa.” – Cover Me This Brooklyn-based ragtime-punk septet yes, you read that correctly is kind of like a no-fi version of acoustic punkgrass darlings the Avett Brothers, with a tuba.” — Seven Days “With tones and tunes of Chinese theater music, banjo plucking, and the essence of an Extra Action Marching Band, Apocalypse Five and Dime somehow manages to transport you to a darkly lit circle around a campfire and an abandoned 1920′s circus stage all at once.” — Thrillcall
