Search - Kiosk :: Eshghe Sorat (Amor De La Velocidad)

Following the success of their debut album "Ordinary Man (Adameh Mamooli)", Kiosk, the Iranian Underground Rock Band returns with their second album to date, again taking aim at superficial and hypocritical trends in society, the ever increasing economic gap, and everything else that is politcally and socially wrong.

The lyrics to the title track "Eshghe Sorat (amor de la velocidad)" are a laundry list of oxymorons and paradoxes that have now become the norm of everyday life in Tehran.


On the track "Bitarbiat", Kiosk borrows from the great Chet Atkins on "Read My Licks", and substitutes music notes in place of otherwise obvious slang expressions widely used in the Persian language, while at the same time making a powerful statement against biased censorship in the media worldwide.

Of particular interest to lovers of Persian Pop culture is the track "Amoo Asdollah", where the lyrics are all based on the dialogue of the timeless Persian literary classic "Daee Jan Napoleon"(My Uncle Napoleon) by Iraj Pezeshkzad. The song was created as a tribute to this cultural phenomenon.
