The Jam/Arabic-A Town Called Malice

Theme: Music

A Town Called Malice, but make it bilingual.This design remixes the legacy of The Jam — one of Britain’s sharpest, most politically charged bands — by rendering their name in bold Arabic script. Set against a black background, the Arabic and English text glows in red, white, and blue: colours loaded with meaning, depending on where you stand and what you possess. It’s a nod to British working-class culture, to youth disaffection, to the voice of Paul Weller cutting through the fog of Thatcher’s Britain — but also to the layered lives of second-generation kids, immigrants, and anyone trying to square the idea of “home” with inherited language, sound, and struggle. This isn’t just a music design. It’s a question stitched into the tapestry of life: What does it mean to belong? What happens when your soundtrack is British punk and soul, but your name or your script or your skin suggests something else?
