Sounds ripped from cassettes & CDs found in immigrant-run mom & pop stores. Deconstructed icons. Field recordings. Sonic mayhem from the far corners of the internet.

Welcome Father Nixon, O you of Watergate
The day your spies welcomed you, they put on a great big show
In which the whores convulse and Shaykh Shamhuwrash [the devil; an allusion to Sadat] possesses the leader of the zar
As the parade continues an entourage of spiders creeps in order of their standing Round and round the never-ending mulid goes
O family of the Prophet, give us your blessings
