Classic Hebrew Rock

"One of the best classic Hebrew rock albums (but you gotta know Hebrew...). Some hints if you don't already know the content;
Song 4 - An obvious attack on Arik Sharon (who would have known that he would be working so hard for peace, now?)
Song 6 - The dramatization of the fall of the Israeli stock market, since the song states that "the messiah isn't coming" it caused no small commotion among the "da'atim".
This is part of that genre that came out of the Nahal units, you can't go wrong with Shalom Hanoch, Arik Einstein, Eli Mohar, Yoni Rechter, Motti Caspi, et al.
OK, so you don't know Hebrew? These albums make it worth the effort."
