Bayou Bagpipes: Tartanic and "Desert Storm"

Today's random tune is performed by Tartanic, a band from Houston, Texas that boasts "not one but TWO Highland Bagpipes, 2 percussionists, 2 smokin' dancers, 8 drums, 6 drones, 18 notes, fast fingers, high comedy, flying bagpipes, taste-defying stunts and scorching hot music played at over 120 beats per minute with driving speed and high-volume, all brought to you by 4 men without pants and 2 talented lasses." They promise a "barrage of sound" that creates new interpretations of dance, tribal, swing and hip hop through fusion with Highland bagpipes and world percussion. This song, Desert Storm, can be found on their 2008 album Uncivilized.
