Why are there so many hot women in a gay band's video?

Thanks sos - i'm surprised the boys lead singer has time to make records, with his constant driving around.

Disco Polo is best enjoyed at a kind of open air party called a Festyn - I can't find a you tube link to do this justice, but having been to napalm death concerts and the scottish new years - the festyn was considerably more hardcore than either !

To jest swietna muzyka! Spaniale!

Seriously guys... just give it 3-4 hours for 2-3 weeks, you'll see what I mean...

So it'll be about 3 years before one could get in on the ground floor of Emo Polo, yeah?

I can't help but think that I've heard about this Disco Polo somewhere before, sgt.serenity.

Despite having only watched the first video, I can now say with no small degree of certainty that Poland is the birthplace of the mook. Were I to turn to my dictionary, I know that I would find a portrait of the lead singer--in full wifebeater/black-belt-with-white-pants regalia--illustrating the definition of the term.

There is no mook shortage here, but I don't think you can credit us with inventing them. Crap culture--especially clothing styles and manners of posturing--tends to flow this way from US and UK cities.

Yeah, it looks like you actually listen to this stuff, sergeant. Head injury? Brother-in-law in the business?

pracowity, you're likely right. At first, I felt like an archaeologist who's found the source of a language's script. But, after viewing the second video, I began thinking that this was just another manifestation of International Mook Culture. The search continues.

Actually, I probably should've just said "Boys boys boys!"

Hoo Hah!

Like my friend says above - repeated exposure to disco polo results in some kind of conversion.
posted by sgt.serenity at 2:14 PM on December 28, 2007

Nope. I listened for the past year, and still refrained from an FPP on disco polo.

Eastern European Countryside homemade dance pop. Got it. Next?

I would have been considerably more cheered up if the songs weren't so horribly infested with Auto-Tune.
