The new album from the modern Yiddish/Klezmer avant-folk group reunited after a 15-year hiatus Black Ox Orkestar formed from Montréal's fertile post-punk scene of the early 2000s, featuring members of Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Thee Silver Mt. Zion and Sackville, releasing two acclaimed and influential albums Ver Tanzt (2004) and Nisht Azoy (2006). Everything Returns picks up right where the band left off, with incisively atmospheric, uniquely modern Jewish diasporic folk music of brooding balladry filtered through the lens of an indie-rock sensibility, exquisitely recorded by Greg Norman (Nina Nastasia, Jason Molina) Black Ox Orkestar will be making select live concert appearances in Toronto, Montréal, Keene NH and Brooklyn NY, December 13-17 RIYL: A Hawk and a Hacksaw, Daniel Kahn, Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave, Arooj Aftab, Tindersticks, The National, Alasdair Roberts, Xylouris White, The Klezmatics
