3.0 out of 5 stars
Orphan tracks, April 18, 2009
This review is from: Hamas Arc (Audio CD)
"Hamas Arc" is one of the weaker Muslimgauze albums. It's still good stuff if you like Muslimgauze, but it lacks the vibe and the passion of classic MG releases, such as "Zul'm" and "Veiled Sisters." Five of the seven tracks "Hamas Arc" are remixed material from a canceled album called "Shekel of Israeli Occupation." Two others, "Farsi" and "Zindabad" are from "Vote Hezbollah," which is one of the best in the entire MG catalog; these anchor the flotsam from "Shekel." Why was "Shekel" canceled? I guess Bryn Jones wasn't pleased with it and quashed it forever. He was a laconic man, not given to explanations.

This review is from: Hamas Arc (Audio CD)
To say the least this album is very interesting, some songs extremely relaxing others, disturbing in a Hakim Bey-ish kind of sense. Nice use of samples blend with sporadic beats and absence of melodies.
