Various - Golden Beirut: New Sounds From Lebanon

these 12 songs on this compilation look at the arab world through a new pair of glasses: beirut's underground. the cd focuses on a young generation that is tired of war, fed up with politics, sick of religious madness, and angry about euro-american exoticism. it is keeping itself alive with electro beats, raw aggressive hip hop or in-your-face indie rock. together these musicians show a new picture of this war- shaken city and region and show a different beirut.
