The menacing muted trumpet of “John The Revelator” carves a scowling path through the refried swagger of the massed horns. The Dirty Dozen has volume to spare, and at times the real challenge of the album is how to step away from the band’s masterful all out boogie and find a more thoughtful sound.

Ishtawi's brother knew Ahmed was a militant, but his brother had no knowledge of Ahmed's stature or deadly exploits until he read the leaflet that boasted of them, published by Hamas after Ahmed's death...
