Post Reply - Oriental Metal

them

Well thought I'd add some stuff,
This thread was a little neglected as we are all probably being exposed to more bands from the
Orient and Middle East.

But after I was looking more into this excellent band "Escher's Knot" . . .

I came across these compilations of various Indian/Hindi Bands, some of
them sound super interesting  . . .
(Look at the details below Vids as they have Names of Bands and their sites):

You can imagine most of these guys are probably on a shoestring budget yet keeping the
Metal scene alive and growing, so more METAL FISTS to them and I hope their industry grows.

Heres some more discoveries . . .

Israeli Metal:

More . . .

Narjahanam from Bahrain Iran:

(what a gorgeous Logo)

Sand Aura from Egypt:

Al-Namrood from Saudi Arabia:

Folk Metal from . . . Afghanastan! Al Qaynah:

Shangren (not quite sure theyre from China but influenced):

ChthoniC from Taiwan:

(pronounced "Sonic"), I have a "Best Of", seems they are
becoming more streamlined from their Black Metal days).

Arkan from France w-Saudi Arabian background:

From 2011 (I need to get this):

Live (love watching the Female singer dance :):

I'm sure we'll add more.

. . .  .  start your trip down the Orient Express and across Deserts sands .

I'll add others soon, that many may have not heard of, but the many others that have, go ahead
and add them as well .
