El Khat 'Mute' LP

"El Khat make joyful clatter...everything is recycled metal, plastic or wood, all coming together in a funereal march that sounds like a huge, disgruntled anima shaking itself into life." -- The Financial Times

El Khat's 3rd album mutebelies its title as it careens out of the speakers with a raucous intensity. Formedin the garages and warehouses of Jaffa and now based in Berlin, the group's ever-expanding vision makes a defiant stand against complacency, conflict and division. Skittering drums and brass, a jagged organ, hypnotic Yemeni melodies and one-of-a-kind DIY percussion and string instruments, all meld together in an infectious, headysoundscape.

Sometimes wildly raw, sometimes lush and enveloping.
Always uncompromised and adventurous.
