Jarada

Jarada is from Tel Aviv, Israel, and describes itself as Raw, Fast, Angry and Negative. They could not be more true. 

In a country where the government is as fucked up as in Israel there are plenty of good reasons to be angry. 

And super angry they are since their first record released early 2018 featuring the famous handshake between Yasser Arafat and Yitzhak Rabin during Oslo accords negociations led by Bill Clinton. At a time when politicians still wanted to think that peace was an option.

 

So yes they are higly political and as they want to be understood by the crowd back home, they sing in Hebrew, a language which gives something quite heavy in the vocals. 

But they don't forget the rest of the world; all songs got hebrew/english titles and the lyrics are available in English in the records and on their bandcamp page. 

And now they are back with another super angry political charge againt the government of their country. Still raw and heavy but well built, it goes straight to the point and that's all I am asking for. And yes it features another handshake on the cover.

 

Ma'agal Sina'a was released by DOOMTOWN, NO SPIRIT and CRAPOULET RECORDS.

Jarada was interviewed in the last (ever!) printed issue of Maximum Rock'n Roll (GET ONE COPY NOW!) where they speak about the band, of course, but also about life in Israel and the history of radical Israeli Punk, which is super interesting to be honest.

Here is a similar interview (online) for Souciant Magazine.  

You can listen to Jarada and other great happy melodies in Rien à Faire #4.
