The album is an exploration of identity and ultimately a love letter to his hometown Beirut, capturing Nader's kaleidoscopic life journey through a melting pot of musical influence; primarily gutsy blues-rock but with tinges of psychedelia, surf-rock, dance, as well as the Lebanese influences of Nadar's hometown. 'It's Lebanese Rock', adds Nader, 'a new genre, a blueprint for future music. It's not fusion, it's confusion, it's not world music, it's rock music from the world, for the world'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollowing the release of The Wanton Bishops' debut album 'Sleep With The Lights On', a Delta blues record inspired by the likes of RL Burnside and Muddy Waters, Nader journeyed to America's deep south to experience the roots of Mississippi blues. The experience spawned a musical epiphany for Nader, as he returned home to Lebanon a changed man with a newly inspired musical vision. Nader's music slowly emerged from the Delta swamps into the Lebanese mountains, and the music of The Wanton Bishops began to reflect Nader's homeland, his people, and his personal journey. To quote Nader, 'I'm finally getting to the core of the music I want to create, and that core is scarily confused, yet uniquely special, much like our own identity as Lebanese people living in Beirut, that eternal cultural crossroad.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e'A thrilling rush of raw blues and booze-soaked indie rock' \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Rolling Stone\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e'An infectious haze of grizzled blues' \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- The National\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e'A real revelation, a vigorous and ruffling record' \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Vibrations Magazine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDon't You Touch The Radio\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeirut\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDo What You're Told\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYa Habibi\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGod's Own Remedy\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe Are One\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGonna Be Fine\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRun Run\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFallen Angel\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJericho\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54421386854785,"sku":"1929067","price":15.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/5056032377523.jpg?v=1750649402","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/1929067","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
