Muslim Heavy Metal; Hindu Procession; CofE Trustworthiness

You might not think that Islam and heavy metal music have much in common – but the all-female Indonesian band "Voice of Baceprot" disagree. The three women members are all in their twenties and all veiled Muslims. The word "baceprot" means noisy in Sundanese, an Indonesian traditional language. The women have been criticised by conservative Muslims in their country, claiming their music and dress is not appropriate. They are playing Glastonbury this weekend, the first Indonesian band to do so, and they tell us about their music and their faith.

Also on the programme, thousands of Hindu worshippers will pull a forty-foot chariot through the centre of Leicester today, carrying statues of Krishna, his sister Subhadra and Lord Balarama. The Festival of Chariots, also known as Ratha Yatra, is one of the most important Hindu celebrations. The organisers, the Leicester branch of ISKCON, the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, say all faiths are welcome.

The Church of England this week published a document, based on a two-year investigation, about ‘Trust and Trustworthiness’. Its authors don’t want to talk to us, so we asked the writer Adrian Hilton to read it and report.
