Arab on Radar -- Yahweh or the Highway


AOR were a part of the RISD noise-rock posse. I originally thought about posting this after hearing AIDS Wolf. These guys never got the credit they deserved, if you ask me, and it probably has something to do with the callow lyrics and whiny vocals. (I sure know how to sell 'em.) But, if you can get past all of that, the music is uniquely discordant and jagged and noisy. Some of the lyrics are actually worth a chuckle, too, such as

Your kids are not safe from us homosexuals
Your kids are controlled by the intellectuals

Your kids will dabble in that devilish stuff

Your kids will dream about their teacher's muff


So true.
