Has anyone else ever heard of them? They were the first Iraqi metal band, and from what I've heard so far, they're somewhat good.
This is their first professionally shot video. Considering they learned English from Metallica, Slayer, and Slipknot, they're good i think.

Wow that was pretty fucking cool, kind of reminded me of war themed grindcore ala Boltthrower with actual singing in place of cookie monster grumblings. So what's the deal, they were practicing in a garage somewhere in the middle of the shit that's going down over there, or they're transplants? I'd totally check the CD out. (if they have one).

Their practice space got nailed with a missile, lost all their shit. A magazine got them new shit, they put on a show, and they were threatened with death. So they bailed to Syria, where they lived in the slums, had to sell their stuff to make rent, and almost got deported back to Iraq. The mag saved them again and got the US government to give them refugee status. 3 are now in Jersey and 1 in Michigan. They've got a CD now, Only The Dead See The End of War. It's a 4 songer, but good.

I like them because they actually sing for once. Also, the bands name isn't snappy and marketable. They should change their name to Cowpounder.
There are a lot of what if's in life Donny. What if I hit you really hard in the face, knocked yo shit to the back of yo skull? What if I....had you girl gargle my nuts? The fact remains, you are a fuckin mutant.
