après la pluie, le beau temps

I created a cover for the band Palio Flaski (http://www.facebook.com/palioflaski) for their debut album WAR which was released a few days ago.. It's a unique mixture of punk, pub rock and ethnic music. I was inspired from their music and their rebel attitude.. You can enjoy a sample of their music at http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/war/id491427186.

Palio Flaski loves the delicate art of drinking with merry company,
blending acoustic Punk and alternative Pub Rock with Middle Eastern Makams.
In the warmth of a small room tries to put together a non existent scale that sounds wrong,
annoyed by the fat bastard who rings the bell in a church nearby…
Babe Jesus is sleeping.
