Persian Condom Vignette - Persian Condom Vignette

Review by Sergey Chernyshev

Persian Condom Vignette's eponymous album is a unique fusion of Persian and Western music that showcases the band's diverse musical influences. The album features a range of instruments, including the tar, santur, and daf, as well as guitars, bass, and drums.

The album's opening track, "Rumi's Dream," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its hypnotic rhythms and haunting melodies. "Khayyam's Wine" is a standout track that blends traditional Persian music with rock and roll, while "Shiraz Nights" is a beautiful instrumental piece that showcases the band's mastery of the tar and santur.

Other highlights include "Persian Funk," a funky track that features a groovy bassline and catchy guitar riffs, and "Tehran Blues," a melancholy ballad that explores the complexities of life in modern-day Iran.
