For over fifteen years now, this explosive cocktail never ceases to amaze. The formula seems clichéd but might have been invented for them. In a brilliant uproar they call "Ethiopian crush," the band blends rock and traditional Ethiopian repertoire, urban soundtrack of New York nights and shamanic incantations, mystical hypnosis and garage-punk distortions. The French electric quartet and Asnake Guebreyes, an enchanting singer and major figure of the Addis Ababa scene, trample all boundaries in a joyful and powerful trance, an incendiary energy. Ukandanz position themselves as pioneers of a new, exciting, and invigorating genre. Very comfortable in the studio - six albums attest to this - they explode on stage as a demonic brass band that will easily convince you that African roots and Ozzy Osbourne's metal can be united in the same mind-blowing sorcery.
