Jambinai’s third album, repressed due to demand.

When the three founders of Jambinai decided to,“communicate with the ordinary person whodoesn’t listen to Korean traditional music,”fewoutsiders anticipated an extraordinary fusion withmetal, post-rock and noise. “Most people expectAsian traditional music to make something smoothfor yoga or meditation,” says band spokesman LeeIl-woo. “We wanted to break all of that.”

Even fewer would have predicted that the likes ofJambinai would play the 2018 Winter OlympicGames closing ceremony in their home city ofSeoul, accompanied by a troupe of geomungo(Korean zither) players - an audio visual spectaclethat such an occasion demanded. Now comes‘ONDA’, their spectacular new album on BellaUnion.
