The Magnificent Seven (Gothic gypsy folk from Sweden)

Sure The Magnificent Seven is an outstanding western but it’s also the name of a pretty cool gothic folk group out of Örebro. The group of four play waltzes, sea chanty’s and eastern folk music that is often eerie and spooky but always danceable. This is a good time for this odd mixture of genre’s since Devotchka, The Decemberists and Gogol Bordello have popularized the form and taken it out of the world music ghetto.

The band has released a number of ep’s and lp’s but these two songs are new demo’s from 2008.

Beware Of The Wolves
Death By Water

Bonus song

The Last Waltz
