Musica Della Mafia 2

More folk songs about blood, vengeance, death, and other light topics from the Calabrian Mafia. Like the first CD, unless you speak Italian, you’d think they were just your average folk song. Read the translations, many of the happiest-sounding songs have phrases like “I’ll crush him like a worm,” in them. Check out the following:

1. Short spoken-word w/bells.
2. Bouncy w/guitars and vocal duet.
3. Guitar, accordion, vocals, mid-tempo.
4. Spoken word. Can go right into 5.
5. “You will die, cadaver, you will die dishonored!” Fun!
7. Spoken word, goes into 8.
8. Almost sounds Mexican. Bouncy guitars, vox.
9. Spoken word into 10.
10. An upbeat little ditty, “consumed by worms & stinking.”
17. Light strings, male vox, mid-tempo.
20. 1:02 spoken-word dialog between criminals.
22. Spoken word, percussion, party sounds.
