electrified, amplified and fuelled by creative fire, the paris-based quartet charge towards a psychedelic horizon; slaloming through rock, dance, electro, hiphop, world and other music - blazing a trail with raised fists, a hand brake turn and a sharp spray of desert sand...mehdi haddab is a virtuoso of the classical oud, that fretless arabic lute beloved of middle eastern orchestras and an instrument with a history stretching back over 5,000 years...speed caravan's debut album 'kalashnik love' combines tradition and future, ancient and urban, beauty and fury to stun-gunning effect. laden with special guests and throbbing with raw rock energy it references everyone from the cure and the chemical brothers to algerian rai and other arabic influences. the sublime result of several year's worth of incendiary live touring, it is fusion - but not (hurrah!) as we know it.
