TOOTARD - VINYL LAISSER PASSER [VINYL]

Popis - LAISSER PASSER [VINYL]:
'Laissez Passer' is the sound of a band that has found its voice. The songs seemed to be pulled from the air, to have found them, whether its the catchy optimism that transports 'Asfur,' the biting groove that propels 'Oya Marhaba,' or the flickering shadows and light shifting guitarscape of 'Sahra.' With its insistent riff that evokes the space of the desert, glorious driving, funky percussion, and an electric guitar that Nakhleh modified with extra frets to sound like an oud, the song builds a manifesto that bonds West Africa and the Maghreb to the Levant. The result is an Arabic blues, the quiet, sad music of people who have a home but no nationality.
