IANAI Launch Final Single ‘Khaalo’ From Upcoming Album
Here’s a comment from Jaani about the single, “Khaalo“:
“It is a song about confronting your own fears and limitations you’ve carried within since childhood. What things are suitable in our culture and what are we allowed to believe in?

Out of our dark hiding places with small, fearful steps first and then onwards and upwards as high as we can. There’s no stopping us.”
“There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.”
