This sounds like trash, but also like death. I honestly don’t know much about these genres, nonetheless, I’d like to share it.

I like the lyrics of this album so much, for one they’re from the middle east, more specifically they’re from Kuwait. So it’s difficult to listen/make/distribute metal.

I discovered this band from the compilation “Oriental Flavors”, there isn’t any place to find that compilation, I just copied the song titles, lyrics, an covers, and made my own. I will be posting that compilation on my youtube channel, because there really are underrated, and I guess tag along if you want to listen to “middle eastern metal”.

I can’t choose a favorite track, as all of them seem to explain something that I went through in my life, but if I had to, I’d choose Godless Souls, Deliverance, and Torment.

    I can only imagine how difficult it must be to produce metal over there! Godless Souls has such a nasty groove to it! Love the vocals too. Cheers for the upload, much appreciated! It’s super interesting hearing thrash from regions that aren’t normally “metal inclined”. Cheers m8!

      Ayyy, yes if we can’t produce metal, at least we can spread what has already been produced. Maybe that will encourage more people!

        Absolutely! Are you from one of these areas, if you don’t mind me asking? Or do you just have an interest in metal from such regions?

          Yes I’m from the middle east. To be honest I find it very weird that there was so much metal right under my nose. I wish I could find more bands singing in Arabic, then I would compile them and post them :D

          I’ve already found Barzakh (Prog) and Narjahanam (Black Death/Middle East Influences) and they sound so nice, especially with Narjahanam incorporating Arabic-sounding riffs and drums.

          So it’s been really fun!

    Hey this is some pretty good death metal! Lots of groove, which if you think about it, it’s just slowed down thrash haha. Plus there’s another instrumental, very nice.

    This album is from 2011, and they only released a single in 2012; I hope these guys are doing alright over there, and keep making sweet tunes!

      Oh yeah it does sounds like death metal 🤦, yes the instrumental Clockwork I think? That’s pretty good! Also there 2012 single is waaay different than the whole album, they featured a guitarist from Lebanon or something. Anyway I found it so interesting that there able to progress that much in almost a year and a half.
