Thank you to all who’ve visited, looked, listened and bought our music. We’re hugely encouraged with the reaction we’ve gotten from all over the world. We just wanted to make a small but important addition to the terms under which we release our work. We have given very broad license to people via a limited Creative Commons license but we wanted to make clear the following stipulation which covers the reuse of our work and which can be found on our copyright page:

Our Special Conditions

Weapon of Musical Defense must be credited as the author of the art works used.

The material must be published unedited.

We will not allow people who support violent totalitarian ideologies, Communists, neo-Nazis or others, to use our material. Those who republish our work should share the spirit we have written the material in. Even though we are critical of Islam, we will not allow or support attacks on random Muslims. Those who desire this are not allowed to use our material.

Those who republish our work should support the defense of Western civilization — and the defense of Israel as well. In our experience, those who disapprove of Israel’s right to exist are either antisemites or suffer from very poor judgment. Sensible people should support Israel’s self-defense against Jihad. If you don’t do this then we don’t trust your judgment on other issues, either.

Violation of the above conditions will not be permitted and violators have no right to republish our work.

We’ve finally released our first album. It’s called Imagine Jihad (part 1) and you can now hear ever track on our site and the whole album is available to buy as a digital download or as a CD.

You can listen to all the tracks by pressing the play button to be found on every page of our site at the top left of the navigation bar.

Please consider buying this album as your support will give us the help and encouragement we need to continue the project. We will be adding copious notes and background material to back up the songs over the coming weeks but we really wanted to get the music out there!

If you have a blog and would like to link to us, please drop us a line via the contact button in the footer of every page. We’ll be happy to give you a free download in return for linkage. We’ll also be producing some nice link graphics over the coming days (there is a first example at the bottom of this post).

Here is the track listing:

1. Philosophy (5:42)
How can there ever be peace and reconciliation if Muslims don’t lay down their arms and say “we’re sorry we won’t do Jihad again”?

2. Appeasement (2:58)
Peace at what price? Are we not kidding ourselves? Do we sacrifice our principles in the name of diplomacy? Can evil ever be compromised?

3. It’s Just an Excuse (8:20)
An excuse to draw a veil over Muslim ambition of world domination. Is that what Jihad really means? Are you ready to submit?

4. Dhimmitude (4:44)
The comprehensive legal system established by Muslim conquerors to rule native non-Muslim populations subdued by jihad. “Protection” money must be paid but non-Muslims have no legal rights.

5. Best Nation (5:04)
Islam’s Declaration on Human Rights is supremacist. It effectively proclaims God said Islam must rule “mankind,” non-Muslim’s have no rights, must submit. This is jihad! How come it’s accepted by the UN?

6. Dictators (4:26)
We wrote this when we realized Mohammed, model for all Muslims, was a dictator. Tyrants can seize power over any peoples but is this why Islam tends to dictatorship? Where is the love?

7. Brave Little Country part 1 (5:27)
Why are “the Jews” always blamed? Are they simply an easy vulnerable target, used by tyrants, a Weapon of Mass Deception, a tool, to unite their masses against and seize/maintain power?

8. Folly of Millions (3:58)
How come multitudes followed nazis and communists down the road to hell? How come millions “do” jihad, commit unspeakable atrocities?

We are working hard behind the scenes both on our music and our website to explain it. When we can we’re trying to make public small parts of the ongoing work.

The Law has been working feverishly on his explanatory material where he will go into details on many of the Islamic concepts like Sharia Law or the jizya tax that the band sings about. He will have definitions and explanations, short and summarized but with a mountain of extra detail for those more interested.

As a base for the work, and while we put in place our own explanations, we’ve included here the complete text of Gregory M. Davis’s introductory course “Islam 101″. Islam 101 has been hosted on JihadWatch: Islam 101 on JW and on Citizen Warrior: Islam 101 on Citizen Warrior We believe it represents a clear and concise basis upon which we can build.

You can find our version of Islam 101 in The Library and linked in our main menu bar.

Hello to all those who are now following this blog. Perhaps you found us after Atlas played Appeasement on her radio show last week. On behalf of the team I’d like to thank you for taking an interest and say a public thanks to those who’ve mailed or left messages.

Last night the second of our songs was played in public on the Voices of Freedom show on Radio KFNX in Phoenix. The show was hosted by the amazing Pamela of Atlas Shrugs and she spoke about Obama’s World Tour 2008 and dedicated our song, Appeasement, to Obama. Thank you Pamela, it was a great show!

We have to admit, the song was written a long time before Obama came on to the scene, but, now that he’s here, he seems to be picking up on a long line of distinguished appeasers.

You can download our song from our home page or listen to it with the audio tool there.

We also have available another song, Best Nation, which is about the Cairo Declaration of Human Rights in Islam.

We’re still working on the rest of our songs and our web site to explain all the lyrics but we couldn’t pass up an opportunity to let a little more of our work out into the open. We hope you like it.

After working for a long time in secrecy, we released our first song via the podcast Shire Network News. This was a low key release for us to elicit a few comments and start raising awareness. We are working hard behind the scenes on all the elements we need for a much bigger launch!

We have some big plans including significant and detailed notes to back up all our songs, giving you all the knowledge you need to understand some very complex issues.

In the meantime, feel free to subscribe to the RSS feed for the blog (see the link to the right) or you can sign up for a mailing list that will carry the more significant posts from this blog. It will be low traffic for now and you will always be able to un-subscribe. We will be very careful with your privacy as we too value ours.
