Shihad's 2008 Concert History

Shihad is a four-piece band from Wellington, New Zealand, comprised of Jon Toogood (guitar/vocals), Tom Larkin (drums), Karl Kippenberger (bass) and Phil Knight (guitar). They were briefly known as "Pacifier" when they were trying to break into the US market between 2002 to 2004, because their label felt that Shihad sounded too much like the Arabic word 'jihad'. Their major albums and EPs include:
