Arafel - Folk Metal Holocaust!!

[Reign in Acai]

Excellent folk metal from the dry arid landscape of Israel. These guys rock Tel Aviv harder than a car bombing. Fans of such bands as Temnozor, Arkona, Pagan Reign, and the like, surely need to check this band out. Violins that are played with such ferocity that lepers leave their camp to find out what all the commotion is about. Guitars picked with such grace, they were invited to play Benazir Bhutto's funeral. Stunning choruses provide the final touches to two brilliant efforts from the middle east's most promising up and coming act.

Burn Palestine to the ground!!! All Hail Mother Russia!!!

heheh I dated their old guitar player :Smug:
while he was in Arafel, so I used to go to so many rehearsals/ shows....
heh.
yeah, those guys are awesome.
All Israeli-Russians - they're great people too!

It makes me happy to see Arafel's name out there... those guys live and breath for their music.
good for them!

I think Arafel and Dark Forest trade keyboard patches.

I don't see the connection in terms of key usage/sound.

why the hell do metal bands keep making music videos

 

[Reign in Acai]

Well I don't think that took much effort or money bro, it's pretty half ass.

Jmel, could whip up a better produced video in 2 hours for our country metal band than that atrocity. That being said, check out the tunes, killer stuff.

That's what I'm saying. No effort, no money, half assed video. I cringe at a lot of metal music videos. I just don't understand why these bands make videos that are so ridiculous. wtf are they thinking?

"hey, lemme take my shirt off and growl, make sure you get a closeup of my evil face alongside my kvlt torso, yeah...that'll be great"

The tunes didn't do much for me. Then again, I have not been in the mood for that type of music for who knows how long now. Will save the tracks for later listening though.

Yea, put a fucking shirt on. I couldn't give a shit if you can run a mile in under six minutes, I do not want to see sweat dripping on to your teats.
