Generation Islam: Punk Rock and Protest

"We aren't [just] some alternative to a stereotypical Muslim. We actually might be offering some sort of insights for people at large about religion, about the world."
Their risqué lyrics and provocative song titles such as "Sharia Law in the USA," "Suicide Bomb the GAP" and "Rumi was a Homo" -- a protest song against homophobia in the American Muslim community -- have drawn the attention of Muslims, non-Muslims, fans and critics alike.

  1. This is awesome! I looked them up on youtube and their songs are pretty good and do a good job of depicting Islamic culture in the US.
