Amassakoul or a mass of uncool?

Re: Tinariwen - Amassakoul (2004)
Send out the rallying cry, my sisters
All over the village
Under my skin is the fire
Of rage and anger
Shouted out at the gathering of my brothers
Suffering for far too long
And in my misery
Loud and clear
At the exit of the village
If the radio in london was closer
My sisters would let everyone know
That the fire has been burning for far too long
In our lost slumbers
For the burnt animals and the aged dead
At the gates of Kidal we must assemble
And fight
As strong as you might be
You will burn in your fire
All over the village
Under my skin is the fire
Of rage and anger
Shouted out at the gathering of my brothers
Suffering for far too long
And in my misery
Loud and clear
At the exit of the village
If the radio in london was closer
My sisters would let everyone know
That the fire has been burning for far too long
In our lost slumbers
For the burnt animals and the aged dead
At the gates of Kidal we must assemble
And fight
As strong as you might be
You will burn in your fire

"Arawan", is a rap song written by Alhousseini Abdoulahi about the town of Arawan. Besides the group rapping along with strumming their electric guitars, we hear the rhythm kept by hand clapping and the haunting uulations of their one female member, Mina Walet Oumar. (Formerly her sister was also in the band, but she died earlier this year).

The girls in Boghassa will never know
That we fled since the first attack.
And now these men
Were entrusted by the front with a task:
They must prove that they are brave.
We liberate our village with old rifles
and with knives or stones
otherwise we'll all die together.
And when I then think of how we fought
without water at dawn
I remember that our men were brave.

I like this.
It's still hypnotically dull, but it's also immersive.
Something of the whirling dervishes about it.
