Habibi - The World ain't Round it's Square

[Hicksville Hogwash]

Heard this on my local radio. Thought sung in French. It's Iranian. It is rather good too.
Iranian American NY band.

That's great!

Haven't listened to their 2020 album, but I remember spinning their 2014 debut a lot. Had a nice hypnotic quality to it:

Habibi is not an Iranian-American group.
That comment implies the heritage of the entire group as such.
The lead singer qualifies, but the other ladies are not Iranian-American.

I have all of their recent releases. I've seen them perform, they are fantastic.
Their Cardamon Garden disc, a two 45rpm ep set from Feb. 201, is my favorite of all. It features a reworked version of "Green Fuz".

Their s**t is hard to get! I don't really like to do downloads.

 

[Rythmn Boy]

Not so hard. I've had their new LP (vinyl) for a few weeks now and love it. Thanks to all above for turning me on to this great little group

I highly recommended the LP by Roya, which also features Rahill Jamalifard on lead vocals. I actually prefer it to either Habibi LPs, even though those are really good, too.

I concur with Mike in that the Cardomon Garden EP is my favorite release by either group.
