Following the 2021 release of "Afrique Victime" via Matador Records, Mdou Moctar unveils "Funeral For Justice," a new album capturing all the ferocity and energy of the Nigerian quartet. This new opus comes after a two-year international tour, imbued with renewed assurance and clear-sightedness.
Formed by Mdou Moctar (guitar, vocals), Ahmouhou Madassane (rhythm guitar and backing vocals), Souleymane Ibrahim (drums), and Mikey Coltun (bass), the band recorded "Funeral For Justice" in 5 days in New York. "Funeral For Justice" channels exhilarating rock energy to bear raw and committed witness to the post-colonial realities impacting Niger and the Tuareg people.
