Oriental Metal

I had created a thread on Folk Metal before, which you can find here. This thread is similar in that it is attempting to introduce a rather unknown yet beautiful form of music to more people. Please view the songs and enjoy. Also, if you know of any Oriental Metal which you would like to post please do so.

Israeli Folk metal with Arab influences


Bahraini Black Metal


Israeli/Palestinian "Mesopotamian Metal"


Tunisian Oriental and Progressive Metal


American but with heavy “Ancient Egyptian/Near Eastern mysticism” influences

Well these dudes are American but if Nile counts....

I like the Mesopotamian and Tunisian videos you posted. I didn't really think the first one was very "metal," but I suppose the folk style keeps the metalness in check lol

OMG, is that the cookie monster singing in the second and last vid?
Awesome lead guitarist in the 3rd vid!
