Haram
Haram is American Hardcore Punk band from New York City. Habibi, group’s Lebanese-American vocalist meant that he was raised to consider his behavior now to be impermissible, deserving of shame, or, as the Arabic word is usually translated, “forbidden.” Fronting the group, who’ve hit upon an imposing sound on their debut, is at once an embrace of his upbringing and an unburdening. He used to pretend he didn’t know Arabic; now he uses the language to untangle the conflict of growing up Lebanese-American in a Shia Muslim household while attending Catholic school in Yonkers. He makes the process sound like flensing flesh from one’s own bone, then grafting it elsewhere on the body—visceral transformation via self-discovery. The phonology of Arabic is important to Habibi, who’s called it “harsh and intimidating” as well as “beautiful,” and his sputtering delivery of fricative and guttural phrases complements the wily, careening approach of Haram’s instrumentalists on بس ربحت, خسرت “When You Have Won, You Have Lost.” Abrupt dropouts and selective vocal doubling charge uptempo songs with combustible energy; some degenerate into static. Often Habibi retches a few syllables on a measure’s first beat before the guitarist, in a spasm of needling notes, seems to complete the point. Haram makes that kind of joint articulation sound like intuitive interplay, not clinical or overdetermined, like less arresting Hardcore groups.
