Regular edition in Colored Vinyl.

Let go. Fall in. Follow the spiral, and find your centre. Move and whirl, headbang and hair whip, into a place that is out there and deep within, an altered state where minds open, boundaries fall away and trust - in values, principles, ourselves - is rediscovered, made real. Welcome, then, to the world of Swaken, the highly anticipated second album by French-Moroccan power quartet, Bab L' Bluz. Recorded at Real World Studios in Wiltshire, England, written partly in Morocco - the birthplace of frontwoman Yousra Mansour - and mostly across a world tour that took them from Adelaide, Barcelona and New York to Essaouira in Morocco, Lomé in Togo and Dougga in Tunisia. Eleven tracks that spark and pulse with kinetic, pedal-to-the-metal energy. Mansour's melismatic voice has never sounded so forceful, or the riffage from her electric awisha lute so mighty. Her bandmates (on everything from keyboards, flutes and electric guembri to drums, backing vocals and qraqeb castanets) now interact with what might be telepathy, their playing skilled and tight.
