1001 Other AlbumsAnother cool interview by @lawrenceperyer for @thetonearm with the amazing Lebanese experimental rock band SANAM. The band just recently released Sametou Sawtan, a brilliant follow-up to their 2023 debut which we have on The List. Hoping to get to that spotlight in the near future.

Borrowed Voices, Borrowed Time — SANAM's Infinite Fire
The Lebanese sextet's second album 'Sametou Sawtan' transforms twelfth-century poetry and contemporary texts into experimental rock that captures both the intensity of their cult-like recording sessions and the existential weight of living under constant threat.
