About: Melancholic melodies, simple but misleading lyrics, contained repetitions overshadowed by saturated climaxes with clear inspirations from the likes of Ziad Rahbani, the xx and the French new wave: Safar Barlik, with a longing for an idealized pre-war Beirut, explores the feelings towards the city and its long lost Golden Age while attempting to understand and coming to terms with their complicated relationship.
