Bahrain Metal

If you enjoy the local music scene, or just want a good laugh, check out Thee Project 666. They're two of my friends, actually, who have come up with a metal/rock/punk/whatever band, fusing the whole Bahraini culture thing into Metal.

Listen to it, it's a bit nuts, especially if you focus on what they're singing about. Example;

Kredit: A song about a guy (desperate lover) trying to call a girl he just met, but doesn't have enough, well, call credit.

Cubicle: If you ever watched Saudi TV back in the 80's/90's, the tune for this song should be very familiar

Chai Chai: A cover version of the famous Sultaneez song. If you're Bahraini, you must have heard the original at least once in your life, and you MUST hear this.

There are a few more, so stop reading and go check it out (even if you're not into metal, you have to hear it just for the sake of it):


Yes, that is a mehyawa bottle. Ahem.

    They are the bomb! We as LiB were gonna feature them as our official soundtrack, along with another Bahraini rock act, "Through Sunken Eyes". If LiB had a soundtrack, these two acts would be it! Whenever we decide to come back to posting with a bang, a post will be dedicated to these great Bahraini metallists.

I don't usually moderate comments, but recently i've been getting a ton of "buy viagra" "check out this search site" "buy casino chips online" related comment spam, so the moderation is back on. Don't take it personally.
