Islamic music influenced bands or songs?

Megadeth - Holy "fvcking" warrrrrrrrrrrrsss

Just as a humorous distraction, be sure to check out hizbollah.org's audio section. I'd recommend you have a case of beer first though (or maybe during -- their 'net connection is sloooooow).

I love bands that use scales and influences from the east. One band I will mention and love are The Secret Chiefs 3. Very weird. Very Kool. But not heavy.

I would recommend MELECHESH and ARALLU.

I think you mean middle eastern? Because under Islam it is sin to have any music.

Orphaned Land defintely has the most all encompassing Middle Eastern sound- how about Tool as well-

 

[nergal_S]

the band "the tea party" has a arabic sound,

 

[smågoth]

uhm, holy wars by Megadeth. Not much to go
on, but the only one I can think of, one of the
coolest traditional thrash metal songs ever.

Old Tea Party rocks.
