Rami Gabriel - Tunderizer
Release Date: 27/03/26
Rami Gabriel’s second LP, Tunderizer, on Sooper Records, channels post-punk and industrial experimentalism into intimate, finely honed songs. Lo-fi noise art and field recordings thread through deft songwriting, moving from irrepressible melody to deconstructive static—country to tarab, skronk to delta blues. Born in Beirut and based in Chicago, Gabriel is a composer and songwriter who plays oud, buzuq, and guitar, blending blues and jazz traditions with Arabic music. He performs widely across North America and internationally, leads The Arab Blues and the R&B quartet Rami & the Reliables, and has collaborated across roots, punk, and experimental scenes. His music has been remixed by Fire-Toolz, Beau Wanzer, Sen Morimoto, Lynyn, k-rAd, and Alex Hall. First pressing: vinyl LP, shrink-wrapped with a merchandising sticker. Tracklist: Side A 1. Majesty and Misery 2. Tunderizer 3. Out of Our Bed 4. Waiting for the Drugs 5. 680 6. Ain’t I Worth That Side B 7. Whiskey on the Rocks 8. Greece Without the Greeks 9. Chennai 10. Nothome 11.
