From LTM:

Recorded in Greece in February 2012 over the course of three hectic days, sixth album Varvakios is a sequel of sorts to the Republic's 1989 album Customs, and draws on local sights, sounds and synergies. On several tracks the band are joined on violin by Blaine L. Reininger of Tuxedomoon, himself a resident of downtown Athens. Says frontman Thom Fuhrmann: 'To walk into such a volatile situation and create this music in such a short time was by far the most satisfying experience that I've ever had as an artist.' Full tracklist: Sparta, Hippodrome, Varvakios, Pigadi, Kara, Poros, For Eva, Anatolia.
