  • Music of a Terrorist

    APHASIA

    Artist: APHASIA - Adam Gadahn

    Label: Aphasia

    Yes, this is it! Musical recordings from Adam Yahiye Gadahn, listed on the FBI's "Most Wanted Terrorists" list with a $1M bounty on his head. Also known as "Azzam the American," and the first American charged with treason since 1952. He became famous for his involvement with Al-Qaeda and the numerous extremist videos he unvieled in protest of America.

    Raised and homeschooled through high school by his parents on an isolated farm in Southern California, Adam played Little League baseball and participated in Christian homeschool support groups. As an adolescent he became very involved in the underground Death metal community. In 1993, he formed his own one-man band called Aphasia, releasing a few limited self-releaesed tapes.

    This is one such tape, originally titled "DELIRIUM: 7 Hallucinatory Interludes, Op.2" A melange of experimental sounds and ambient passages, fused with occassional guitar interludes and drum machines bringing us into the adolescent mind of this future propagandist. Perhaps the final words of the last track, "Insanity," summarize the character of this esoteric individual when he closes the album with the words: "I'm mad!"
