Abu Lahab (musical project)
Abu Lahab is an experimental music project based in Morocco. It takes its name from Abū Lahab, meaning "Father of Flame", who is recognized in Islamic tradition as one of the most prominent leaders in the Quraysh tribe of Banu Hashim and paternal uncle to the prophet Muhammad. Active since 2000, the project bridges dark ambient, industrial and drone music to create nightmarish soundscapes. Because of the nihilistic and anti-Islamic themes present in his oeuvre, the composer behind Abu Lahab has chosen to remain unidentified. His two full-length albums, Humid Limbs of the Torn Beadsman (2012) and Supplications of the Last Gyrosophist (2013), were met with enthusiasm by parts of the musical community.
