Jerusalem Under Fire

A murky collision of Middle Eastern percussion and Brooklyn illbient. Deep, ritualistic dub that sounds like a desert wind blowing through a subway tunnel.

September 16, 1997 · ROIR

A tense, ritualistic journey through urban decay and ancestral memory.

Moments Worth Listening For

The hypnotic hand percussion on 'Alien Encounter' that feels both ancient and extraterrestrial

The heavy, lumbering bass drop on 'War on Mount Zion' that anchors the atmospheric swirl

The mournful, expansive closing of 'Ocean of Tears' providing a rare moment of emotional release
