Les pionniers magistraux de l‘indie rock oriental
MASHROU’ LEILA
---
Raasük (sortie 2013)
Fer de lance d’une scène underground libanaise qui accède enfin à la lumière, Mashrou’ Leila redéfinit le cadre d’un indie rock oriental nourri de jazz, de blues, de funk, voire de tarab et doté d’un regard aiguisé sur le quotidien beyrouthin. Artisan de la révolution sonore du paysage culturel arabe, ce groupe d’étudiants perpétue la flamme des nuits blanches, chantant dans le dialecte qui berce les rues de Beyrouth, balançant sous les volutes d’un violon loquace et les scansions des guitares distorsions. Plébiscité au Proche Orient, Mashrou’ Leila impose ainsi sa fougue et sa verve vivifiantes en symboles d’un printemps musical de la jeunesse libanaise.
Spearhead an underground Lebanese music scene which has just recently come to the forefront, Mashrou' Leila redefines Oriental indie rock by feeding it with jazz, blues, funk and even tarab and by focusing on the issues of everyday life in Beirut. This group of students are responsible for the sound revolution in the Arab cultural landscape. They rock the streets of Beirut by singing songs in their local dialect, accompanied by a dynamic violin and the rhythm of distorted guitar sounds. Their music is an invitation to the population to enjoy their music all through the night. Already an overwhelming success in the Middle East, Mashrou' Leila's passion and verve act as symboles of an Arab Musical Spring for the Lebanese youth.
