"Kardeş Türküler are a great (in both senses of the word) folk-rock band who combine abundant musicality with passion and cultural engagement (meaning they're robustly egalitarian in their embrace of all the Anatolian cultures, and when it's time to stand up and be counted - like supporting the Gezi protests - they don't hesitate) ... The packaging gets it a bit wrong I think; very much in the Network style but the live photos (they're wonderful live) are not very good (like press shots for an evangelical musical) and not very relevant to a compilation of studio recordings ... This isn't a definitive selection but certainly is a very good introduction to the band's work (and there's none other, so the first-stepping choice is to buy this album or one of the studio albums - I'd start with Doğu)".
