"Breathtaking electronic soundscapes" -- seancarnage.com
"Gary Numan in awesomeville" -- honestengine
"Marvelous romantic urgency... the lyrical mood whipsaws between love and regret and reconciliation and patterned cynicism, with the looming end of the world more or less menacing the whole narrative.  Hell yes." -- meficomp.com

Title

Into the Freylakh

Description

Detroit-based klezmer band with two albums, including The Shape of Klez to Come, which features Isaac's composition "Twirly Moustache," a tune that combines the requisite Eastern European influences with a little bit of tango, some vaudeville, and odd time signatures that meet at the intersection of rickety railroad tracks and cheap villainy.
