2006, Gern Blandsten / Redeye
NYC's disturbingly cult-like, circus-related, Halloween-tent-revival orchestra, THE WORLD/INFERNO FRIENDSHIP SOCIETY toothily and engagingly explain in 13 carnevalesque, gypsy-punk, original Broadway production numbers how you-yes, you-can go from a simple understanding of Zen and the Art of Breaking Everything in this Room to throwing Just the Best Party. The nine girls and boys of your INFERNO have buckled down and made the record you've always wanted them to make. They've combined the innovations and unexpectedness of their early work with the ferocity, sweat, and screaming of their incendiary road show-an event which has been described with such hyperbole as "life changing" and "makes all other bands look like a bunch of silly teenagers standing around holding guitars." THE WORLD/INFERNO FRIENDSHIP SOCIETY is not a rock band with a horn section; it's a fully-integrated orchestra of young men and women performing for you songs of the wine, freedom and foibles which make life more than waking up and going to work every day.
