This is one of Pell's finest classics. One of many fantastic Orientally influenced metal songs...Gates Of Babylon, The Sails Of Charon, Egypt (The Chains Are On), Powerslave, Sphinx (The Guardian) & Seventh Star, Pyramid Of Cheops (YJM), Babylon (Stratovarius), Tarot (YJM), Trail Of Tears (KenZiner), Pharaoh's Dream and Tears Of Babylon (Virtuocity)...the list goes on...I got tens of songs in this category...plus the whole production of Nile and Karl Sanders...
tja.. so gute Sounds gab dann mit J. Gioli nich mehr. Ob Metallica, Rainbow, Purple oder Sabbath die gerne als "Vorbilder" bzw."Wegbereiter" vorgebracht werden: ARP spielt in der Hard-Rock-Liga, die diese Bands nie erreicht haben... Super, das es heute noch ne Band gibt, die bessere Hardrock Mucke macht als die aus den 70 gern.
@fictionalsilence The Casbah (Arabic: قصبة, qasba, meaning citadel (fortress)) is specifically the citadel of Algiers in Algeria and the traditional quarter clustered around it. More generally, a kasbah is the walled citadel of many North African cities and towns. The name made its way into English from French in the late 19th century (the Oxford English Dictionary states 1895), and continues to be spelled as acquired from that language. taken from wikipedia :)
Axel rudi is the best band ever hands down, ive always thought the main riff to this song sounded a little like metallica's where ever i may roam? personally i reckon they ripped it hahaha

Great song! But what is the "Casbah"? I know that google is my friend, hehe, but it's more fun to ask someone else.
Is it the promised land that he sings in the beginning?

Para mim, a melhor banda da actualidade sem duvida, com riffs de guitarra espectaculares, talvez daqui a mil anos apareça outra igual ;)
