It’s the first of the month and the rent has not been paid
I had better things to do so in my pocket’s where it stayed
I cashed it out in pennies and then flushed it down the drain
I’ll do anything I want cause I’m not paying rent again
I spent the rent
Should I spend it at the mall or just buy a bunch of drugs?
Maybe I’ll blow it all on expensive Persian rugs
I think I’ll just go to the store and buy myself a gun
Doling out the rent in lead sounds like a lot of fucking fun

Saw Haram at Oklahoma's Everything Is Not OK III festival, and have never seen a show get more fucking insane. Haram were killing it, people were literally flying all over the place, including the vocalist. But it's more than that. Haram stands out as one of the most culturally relevant and important bands in the states, challenging issues of cultural and social oppression for all marginalized peoples. Vocalist Nader also sings in Arabic and stands full force against the racism and religious phobia faced by middle eastern americans, issues that have relentlessly plagued our country and people, even before 9/11. I highly recommend reading his interviews, I challenge all to join and support them in this effort. I hope I've done an at least passable job representing them here. I also consider myself lucky to have seen them. Ariele Betterton
