    “Hàn Gắn from Washington, D.C. take Post-genres to a whole new level. Post Punk, Post Rock, or Post Hardcore can certainly be found in the atmospheric and thrilling soundscapes created by the duo. And yet, Hàn Gắn add at least a couple of Post-s as prefixes as they let electrifying Wave sounds interfere with dystopian rock sounds, or when massive Hardcore breakdowns joyfully collapse above synthetic drums. Hàn Gắn's second album is the melancholic, heavy, and sensual sound for the next generation.” — MangoWave (Germany)

lyrics

Every night the desert shakes
Fire keeps me awake
Every morning Omar slides on
His worn down sandless

He goes to meet the soldiers guarding
Rubble along the highway

Along the highway
He waits for liberation
Along the highway
Liberation

At dusk I pack up
Omar writes his name in my hand
He makes it home that night
Family waiting for the food and water he’s brought back

And tonight I’ll hear the thunder rolling over fire (x2)

I lay in the sand waiting for my liberation (x2)

But I know
It’s painted in your heart (x4)

I lay in the sand waiting for my liberation

My liberation
