Let me get this out of the way…if you want to start listening to Arab rock…start here. Period.
Continuing their charismatic line of releases, they just released “Dem 3la Dem”…a magnum opus of alternative rock, the essence of Moroccan and Arabic soul and a very global topic that is changing our world and lives.
“Dem 3la Dem” talks about climate change…and as they put it…
“what we can do to make a change on The Earth we inherited and the one we leave behind”
…and they wrap this heavy subject with a Moroccan Arabic flavor of oriental time signatures and instruments…the music sounds absolutely huge, absolutely impeccable production.
The guitars are mountainous, the drummer is a monster, the bass is huge, it can block the sun and the vocals have the emotional energy and history of the whole Moroccan, Arabic and African region…
“Dem 3la Dem” covers the whole emotional roller coaster spectrum…you have very emotionally charged verses, that’s just about the vocals and the Oud (a guitar like fretless instrument)…and then you have the explosive chorus that sounds absolutely heavy and monstrous.
The song has strong progressive elements too, so you’ll experience many riffs, beats, melodies, bass lines…and there are some orchestral elements too thrown in the mix…the string section especially sounds very charismatic and epic.
The guitar solo is also not to miss…
…”Dem 3la Dem” could easily be one of the best rock songs that is sung in Arabic…
This is one of the highly recommended listens…you should check them out right away.
Lazywall, we wish you all the best in life, you deserve it and a lot more…secondly, we can’t wait to hear what you come up with next…and lastly, you’re doing places that’s for sure.
Cheers!
