Mdou Moctar - Funeral For Justice

Feature Sounds

This week’s PBS Feature Album is Funeral For Justice, the new album by Mdou Moctar.

Recorded at the close of two years spent touring the globe following the release of 2019 breakout Afrique Victime, Funeral For Justice captures the Nigerien quartet in ferocious form. The music is louder, faster, and more wild. The guitar solos are feedback-scorched and the lyrics are passionately political. Nothing is held back or toned down.
