Oi Va Voi is a studio album by the English London-based experimental band Oi Va Voi, released in 2007.[5][2]

Critical reception[]

AllMusic wrote that the album "saw Oi Va Voi embracing their peculiarities and creating a swirling mix of rock music, soulful electronica, and world music influences."[5] The Guardian wrote that the band "excel here at everything from an Air-style 'kitsch space song' about Yuri Gagarin via skittering beats, Arabic strings and Jewish klezmer to the sensitive 'Dry Your Eyes.'"[4] Drowned in Sound called it "an astoundingly bland, wearingly tedious long-player, with precious little to recommend it."[3]
