Moved three Trivia tropes to their own new page, then deleted them here.


* DevelopmentHell: ''Voi-La Intruder'' was released locally in 1999, but was not picked up by a label until March 2002. This was after the single "When the Trickster Starts A-Poking"/"Occurance on the Border" was released in 2001, which was recorded for their second album ''Multi Kontra Kulti Vs. Irony'' released in Sep 2002.



* GenreAdultery:
** Each album will be somewhat folkish punkish but just how much punk and just how much folk is never certain. They've been known to cover some traditional Eastern European folk songs. In the collaboration known as Jüdisch-Ukrainische Freundschaft (J.U.F. for short) between Gogol Bordello and Balkan Beat, things take a more dancey turn. The band also have some reggae and dub influences, the song "Dogs Were Barking" starting off as a frenetic gypsy punk song before having a dub middle section complete with toasting (Jamaican style rapping).
** During their summer tour with Brazilian band Forro In The Dark, they would frequently invite the band onstage to accompany them performing forró (A Brazilian type of rhythmic dance music that incorporates heavy percussion) renditions of their own songs.



* WriteWhatYouKnow: Hütz came to America when he was twenty after traveling extensively through Europe and many of the songs address prejudice against immigrants and people of Romani descent.

Useful Notes are not tropes and are not to be included in a work's trope list.


* UsefulNotes/{{Romani}}: Hütz discovered that his grandmother has of Romani descent when he was 14, a fact that was kept from him purposefully. He has embraced his heritage and has supported various Romani rights organizations

the band is still touring as of 2018



The band has not produced any music for since 2013 and no news has been heard. The band may have quietly broken up. In 2012, former bandmate Oren Kaplan discovered Eugene was embezzling money from him, and subsequently sued him, which may be a factor.
