Rabih Gebeile (Mondo Cane, Backbone Party)

May 25, 2021

Today we head to France with Rabih Gebeile. We decide to take a walk through the French countryside and no, that’s not a euphemism. So occasionally there will be a bit of wind noise. But Rabih has led a fascinating life, including escaping civil wars. He’s lived all over the world and all of this can be felt and heard in his music. It’s also been influenced by the medical condition his father developed several years ago, called normal pressure hydrocephalus. We discuss how moving so often as a kid has had an effect on him (and me) as we get older. We disagree on French gangster rap, and he ruins my conspiracy theory of 8’s with coincidence. Rabih also talks about how he felt the first time he found a bootleg of his albums. This episode has something for everyone, including birds, angry cows, and overly affecioante dogs.
