about

The purpose of this download album is to raise money to help families (some of whom we know personally) escape from Gaza. Every penny raised will go to that cause.

Under "normal" circumstances it costs between 250 and a thousand Dollars per person (depending on the time of year) to travel from Rafah into Egypt. At the moment it costs 5 thousand Dollars per person. So a family of four would need $20,000 (about £16,000) in order to escape the genocide happening in Gaza right now.

So people who have probably never had $20,000 in the first place (how many of you reading this have that sort of money to hand?) somehow have to raise it. How? There's little, if any work and each day is spent concentrating, quite literally, on staying alive with no food, water or shelter. It's an impossible situation that no one should be subjected to.

One of the people we know and are trying to help is a woman named Salma, who did the spoken word intro in Arabic at the start of our song "It's Not Antisemitic To Hate Fascists". This was recorded 5 or 6 years ago, which means nothing other than the fact people recognised then, as they do now, the inequalities and persecution Palestinians have been enduring for the past (now) 76 years. This didn't all start on the 7th October. Salma said...

"In the 70 years since the creation of israel, tens of thousands of Palestinians have been killed by israeli forces and illegal settlers.
This is ethnic cleansing.
This is genocide."

When you buy this album please remember that Bandcamp and PayPal both take percentages of the money (for example, if you donate £5, we'll get about £3.80 or less) so, if possible, please consider adding an extra quid or two on top. We know times are hard so we really do appreciate absolutely anything you can spare. Thankyou xx
