From Murur Al-Kiram

From the village of Rayfoun in the Lebanese mountains, post-rock band Kinematik formed in the summer of 2014, and three years later they recorded their debut album Ala’ for Lebanese indie label Ruptured. They released its sequel Murur Al-Kiram in February 2020 via Ruptured and the Portland based Beacon Sound. Both albums were recorded and co-produced by Fadi Tabbal from Tunefork Studios in Beirut. Live, the band have built a reputation for elaborate shows devised with different visual artists.
