From the new album WHO ARE WE? Out September 16 via Glitterbeat Records Pre-order/Stream: In Hobek Thawrat, New York-based Sudanese innovator Alsarah calls out against the coup in her homeland, her vocals set to quarter-tone electric saz riffing and Bonham-style drumming. Al-Qasar leader & producer Thomas Attar Bellier says: “I admired Alsarah’s body of work, both in terms of groove and musicality and in terms of general outlook on music and the world. I felt her vocals would fit perfectly in a psych rock context.” The chorus, which translates as “no negotiation, no intersection, no collaboration”, Alsarah explains, “is one of the calls of the revolution in the face of the ongoing coup. I wanted to capture the overall vibe of the Al-Qasar collective and relate it to what is going on in Sudan.“ Rider : Samantha Ray #arabianfuzz #alqasar #alsarah
