Description
Murder In The Temple is both a continuation and departure from Zohra's past. The fourth daughter of a family of Afghan refugees, Zohra proudly sings and speaks her history, her family's Muslim heritage, her own black-clad weirdo-ness, and unashamed Stevie-esque, shawl-spinning femininity (after all, one person's Stevie-esque shawl is another's chador). She dives deep into the kinds of dark pop and synth that she's explored in Azar Swan, flowing seamlessly from bubblegum radio to batcave goth club, while at the same time, the South Asian/Middle Eastern melodies, modal tones and harmonies in her bones emerge. With a like-minded openness to chaos provided by producer Ben Greenberg, Zohra takes the sort of off-kilter chances that can only come when one has nothing left to lose.
