Story behind the song

Now and then I purposely try to make myself comfortable inside certain scales.  I really dig the minor and diminished scale, but like the blues scale, the arabic scale is quite fun to play around in because of it's awkwardness.  In this song I think it helped make the song sound really heavy.  I really don't use arabic scale enough in my songs.  My intention in this song is to describe anyone who is caught in the middle of the east/west conflict.  A few years ago I got into a guy named Homayun Sakhi who is a rubab player, and while there isn't any rubab in this song I did try to make the guitar sound like a rubab and a sitar mixed with american styles.  While america is full of judgemental and curious people, I think people often forget even in afghanistan there is a mix of judgemental and curious people as well.  Homayun Sakhi is a very peaceful musician, but when people hear afghanistan they think Osama bin Laden.  This song is meant to sound like from the point of view from an easterner, someone who feels "Anger From the West".
