Haale (pronounced similar to Hallelujah) successfully manages to blend the traditional rhythm and passion of Persian and Sufi Trance music and fuse it with a beautiful take on the post modern rock most readily associated with the likes of Radiohead. Dark and beautifully orchestrated spaces allow for the true breadth of her voice to shine throughout the title track of her debut release No Ceiling (available now on MP3 and on CD March 18th). I’ll post a full review in the coming week but to tide you over until then check out “No Ceiling”.

Cool stuff - is it just me and my twisted and polluted mind, or is the cactus in the background oddly placed in the picture? is she a mannn baby?? or an amazon woman with a special toy?

Very nice. Reminds me of Portishead.
