Sirens (2022) [Movie] NeoDB Douban WikiData TMDB IMDb
Sirens
director: Rita Baghdadi actor: Lilas Mayassi / Shery Bechara
True to their name, Slave to Sirens — the first and only all-woman thrash metal band in the Middle East — are utterly magnetic. Amid a backdrop of political unrest and the heartbreaking unraveling of Beirut, five bandmates form a beacon of expression, resistance, and independence. Director Rita Baghdadi follows founders and guitarists Lilas Mayassi and Shery Bechara as their tenderness, and sometimes bitterness, for one another grows in ways both unexpected and deeply moving. Joined by vocalist Maya Khairallah, bassist Alma Doumani, and drummer Tatyana Boughaba, these women negotiate their emotional journeys through young adulthood in tumultuous circumstances with grace, raw passion, and a ferocious commitment to their art. Their grit is tested as they grapple with the complexities of friendship, sexuality, and the destruction around them.

Odessey And Oracle [Music] Discogs
The Zombies genre: Rock / Pop
release date April 18, 1968 publisher: Zombies Partners
Even in a late '60s rich with groundbreaking psychedelic chamber pop, few albums achieved the same magic as the Zombies' 1968 masterwork Odessey and Oracle. Made by a group spread thin by years of toiling with limited success, the recording budget was limited and the process was rushed, and when the public more or less ignored the final product, the frustrated and disillusioned Zombies broke up. Even under less-than-ideal conditions, however, Odessey and Oracle tapped into a very specific balance of mysterious, moody vocal harmonies, Baroque instrumentation, joyful sunshine pop, and lovelorn songwriting so sadly beautiful that these 12 tunes remain fascinating and unique over 50 years later.

Odessey and Oracle's uncommon brilliance wasn't just a standout in the Zombies' catalog but it also made for a spellbinding musical moment that occupies a similar space as only a few other special albums. It's not an overstatement to assert that Odessey and Oracle was in conversation with Pet Sounds, Revolver, and Forever Changes as part of a limited echelon of daring and unpredictable rock music that quietly, but certainly, changed the course of everything that followed.
