Iranian/Persian heavy metal Track 1 (Penhan-Dad Ze Bidad)

[ruysolgerdwowpaladin]

@igorwelkenbach nope

[TheDisharmony]

why is most people such enemies of Iran? Enough with zog propaganda

[fjcaron]

I am really digging this band, nice thing about music is it's universal and knows no prejudice, and reaches across all boundaries of life.

[rakanaklistani]

Warm hello from India...

great song... i've heard a few songs of Kourosh Yaghmaei as well from 70s... Loved them all... especially "Gol-e Yakh" and "Havar Havar"... Didnt know Iran had a rocking metal scene as well... recently met an Iranian metal fan at the Metallica concert in Bangalore in Oct '11 who told me about Iranian Heavy Metal...

Keep it up guys... Long Live Rock... Long Live Irano-Hind Friendship....

[fabrigiramondo]

Hi guys...I found this track fucking cool....I write from Italy and I'm sure that other people will appreciate this song..I have a question:Does SOmeone of you know a website or has any information about any rock festival that sound in middle est like Iran, Iraq, Syria?, I would like to go there'cause I think it'll be wonderful...bye bye...

[ballackheim]

@fabrigiramondo i dont think so. i live in the middle east and there arent any (that i know of). metal is seen as an instrument of the devil (stupid i know) and is usually banned in public. dubai had a desert rock festival but that stopped after the recession came, so yeah -.-

[IgorWelkenbach]

@fabrigiramondo I can give you band names - Almora from Turkey, Odissey from Pakistan, and others with more complicated name that youll find in videos related to those - for that heavy metal with a arab zither feel like 1001 nights ;)

On other hand, I thought you italians were downright racist , shouting "sporci neri, schimia" a lot to foreigners

[IgorWelkenbach]

Does it have religious lyrics? That's very cool, because I think I heard "Allah" as the very first word =D

[TheZoroastrizm]

@IgorWelkenbach Allah is arabic word not Persian !!...they didnt say allah.. song was beginning with PALANG !! palang is panther in Persian language

[IgorWelkenbach]

@TheZoroastrizm Ohh I see... what language is Farshid using in his album "Ravi-e-Sokoot"? Now I'm almost sure I heard Allah in that one,in the very first song too :P

But two excellent albums. I like this one better though, sounds really tribal and genuine

[TheZoroastrizm]

@IgorWelkenbach interesting, where in these songs you are hearing Allah !!!??)))) if you are a Russian i can explain to you in Russian too ))) ...FARSHID AERABI in SOKOOT E RAVI says ENGAR !! ENGAR = it seems be !!))) it is not Allah !!

[IgorWelkenbach]

@TheZoroastrizm Whoa calm down! I just thought I heard it in this song in 1:08 /watch?v=JqtnUpIG9wE, but its fine, I just thought so! I have no one to teach me farsi (I just have started studying pashto, wich has nothing to do with).

And no i'm not russian I'm from New Hamburg

[TheZoroastrizm]

@IgorWelkenbach pashtoo is not farsi too )) find an iranian girl friend and she will teach you farsi )))

[IgorWelkenbach]

@TheZoroastrizm Looking foward to that! :D I'll be the envy of everyone!

But in order to marry her I'd have to perform the Shaheed (conversion) right?

[IgorWelkenbach]

@TheZoroastrizm No, I mean Shahada! Shahid is when someone dies ;S Sorry!

[TheZoroastrizm]

@IgorWelkenbach be calm ))) these are for muslim girls - islam is not original religion for Persians ! our people called muslim but they are not muslim in heart and alot of them hate islam , we are infidels in fact ))) you can find an iranian Christian or Zoroastrian girl !! ZOROASTRIAN is original ancient religion of Iran.

[IgorWelkenbach]

@TheZoroastrizm Oh I see! The Avesta and the Sassanid faith, right? Well, it was a pleasure talking to you and learning more aobut persian culture! Here we only got to know ancient Persian culture by the movie 300 and movie Alexander - LOL! Horrible movies...

It was a guy from my country that was Xerxes in the movie 300, even!

[TheZoroastrizm]

@IgorWelkenbach Avesta is holly book of Zoroaster 500 B.C.E. ( Achaemenid-era )... i know,unfotunately there are so many political problems and it is why Hollywood makes such films against iran's culture based on any true historical references..they are trying to show that, iran is and was an islamic-arabic retarded country ! they are only poisoning the mind of people in the world..our people never become muslim n their hearts because it is not for them ! islam and arabism does not concern us !

[IgorWelkenbach]

@TheZoroastrizm Would you consider translating the songs? ;) I can provide written lyrics!

[TheZoroastrizm]

@IgorWelkenbach FARSHID AERABI not ARABI !!))) he is not Arab ))) and his language is not Arabic ! he is a Persian...and in his songs he doesnt say allah at all )))

[ballackheim]

sufi influenced lyrics and iron maiden sounding music... fk yea!!!

[rak000]

@ballackheim I'm glad you enjoyed it brother!!!!

[TwilightCodex]

WOW THIS KILLS!!!!

[rak000]

@TwilightCodex thanks man!! take a look at the rest of the songs as well although it seems that this one is everyone's favorite on the album!!!

[kfkfkf2000]

thanks for uploading this, my favorite persian rock song...btw, "bidad" means injustice

[rak000]

@kfkfkf2000 no problem brother!! I do my best to spread the word for this beautiful music! I know that dad e bidad means screaming among screaming because every time my parents complain about people fighting they say "hamash dad o bidad bood!!" but I think you may be right, in this context I think it does mean injustice.

[Anophis]

Really love this. It's wonderful. My favorite track of this cd. I'm also interested in what the lyrics are in english though.

[rak000]

@Anophis I think I'm going to Iran this winter, so I'm going to get a professional to translate the lyrics for me. I also think I may meet up with the lead singer and have been translated for me into English.

[Anophis]

@rak000 That would be great! I still love this song but it's a shame I don't know what it's meaning.

[noppaa]

Great stuff! Keep on going!

Hail from Finland!

[Vondelene]

@noppaa Rakastan Soumi!

// From Iranian friend! 

[rak000]

@noppaa it's a real honor getting a compliment from a Finn on metal!!! being that almost 90% of my favorite bands are from Finland!!! Moonsorrow, ensiferum, Insomnium!!!!

[noppaa]

@rak000 

[noppaa]

@rak000 Thank you for that! Awesome to hear that Finnish metal have reached to your region as well! This is how metal connects us, universal language of pure feeling.

[rak000]

@noppaa Hell yeah!! It really is the universal language of AWESOMENESS. Kiitos again for visiting my friend =)

America + Iran = Make Metal, Not War

[rak000]

@DeathMetalIdol let's cross our fingers and hope so!!!

[mdjeffre]

the intro is very much iron maiden...

[DHSNAKE]

@mdjeffre yeah that`S what i thought too. very nice track. great that iran shows tallents in other genre of music too. why not start to export our culture in metal package?! ;)

[rak000]

@DHSNAKE hell yeah!! not too many people realize how many metalheads there are any Iran!! so many!!! and I'm proud to be one of them!!!

[rocknroller2222]

[timosha21]

[rak000]

[headbanger0sth]

[LibertarianPersian]

good job..\m/

[rak000]

@LibertarianPersian Thanks brother!! 

[rak000]

@LibertarianPersian thanks brother!!

[BenjaminBenya]

Not bad guys, liked it!

Greetings from Israel

[rak000]

@BenjaminBenya Thank you so much man!! It warms my heart to see that someone from Israel took the time to really listen to Persian heavy metal. Although our governments may hate eachother this doesn't mean that the citizens of our nations should. Heavy metal sees no color, no race, no government. We are all brothers in metal regardless of where we are from!!!

[BenjaminBenya]

@rak000

It is really good that you feel and think the same, we like heavy metal and we should not mix it with religions or politics or any other crap.

I'll be glad if you would listen to some Israeli metal, there is a good video on my page.

Keep in touch, cheers !

thanks brother.

[rak000]

@arian13 If you search Penhan or Farshid Arabi on google you should be able to find full album downloads. If you cannot get to it I will try to find it for you. I dont have the Cd anymore because it was in my car when i got into an accident :(

[arian13]

@rak000 aye dude, ive searched everywhere for this album, Especially this specific track, as well as "Kafaran" i could not find a download link, Google, Tahoo, Limewire, Frostwire.. none man.. its like this album was dropped off of planet earth!

Id appreciate your help, mate! damet garm pesar!

[rak000]

[rak000]

@parthiansoldier Thank you but this is not me, this is Farshid Aerabi check out his site Farshidarabi(dot)com

[Staplesz]

The three people who disliked this video are disrespect to music of any kind

[rak000]

@Staplesz agreed!!!

[AATCkneegrow]

SHIT MAN. THIS IS WHAT METAL SHOULD HAVE ALWAYS SOUNDED LIKE!!!! AN AUDIO JOURNEY THROUGH HEAVEN AND HELL...not the stupid new shit about butchering and murdering. This is classic music. this is real mans music.

[lostintranslationman]

Good sound my friend from america. I'm teaching my son to play the guitar, metal unites the people it speaks one language. I acually don't like our rock in the U.S. it's not from there own hands. most of it is prverted or or is hollywood, Most everything here is going rap. Keep it for the rest of us.

[rak000]

@lostintranslationman You really couldn't have said it any better. Metal really unites us all. Regardless of where we're from or what we are labeled in our hearts we love metal and when we listen to music WE LISTEN. Its not a joke to us like those idiots listening to mainstream garbage. \m/ hails!!!

[PakistaniMetalhead]

Great song, catchy choruses and good work on guitaring, I tried to understand some of the stuff that was going along, but now urdu/persian aren't even that similar, but I catch some words here and there.

[rak000]

@PakistaniMetalhead Yeah they are very different languages. My PAkistani friend told me that Urdu is very similar to Hindi. Any heavy metal from your region you can recommend me?

[PakistaniMetalhead]

@rak000 Goto my youtube profile, I have uploaded some Pakistani bands. I think you should checkout band Odyssey, prog-metal. Yes urdu is similar to hindi but its a much poetic and polite language than hindi and derives many roots from turkish and persian.

[Gnurkelwark]

no shit

[SilverViperx]

its a great work! its kinda hard to get Farsi match the metal music but when it does all will enjoy it, know farsi or not!

damet garm!

[shir75]

Dame hamton garm ,,,, Rock on

[disndat11]

5 *

It's metal with an Iranian touch, sort of poetic way doing the lyrics.

Reminds me a lot of Queens Reich

With greetings from Shiraz

[quarentenarock]

that´s an awsome band dude!

[rak000]

Thank you so much!

[juliehermiz]

FANTASTIC, You guys deserve the greatest respect, really you do. To bring something positive out of all the difficulties through your music is indeed an inspiration. Keep on going and don't give up, you will become stronger because of it!

[rak000]

Thanks brother, i promise to never give up.

[jfeuiebf]

@rak000 are there any iranian GRINDCORE bands?

[PakistaniMetalhead]

@jfeuiebf in Pakistan there was, Hell Dormant, and there's an upcoming band, Infected Penis. I don't know about Iran.

[eliasisnemesis]

i just jearf an iranian metal band it was awesome man iranian metal is the best!!

[LolaCrazy222]

Yeah, this song sounds like Iron Madien. For a second in the song I thought I was going to hear "Running Free"! It's pretty fucking cool that your friends were playing this while roiting against Ahmadinejad!

[thanawath1978]

The begining of the song sounds like Man on the Edge, an Iron Maiden' Song.

[rak000]

Thats a really good observation man. I listened to the song as soon as you posted that. It definitely sounds similar. This song comes on a little more strong though. thanks a lot man! keep listening!

[thanawath1978]

Thanks. I love Rock as much as Beyonce and Alicia Keys.

[orlanjoyful]

also if u saw the video with Blaze they appear singing in somewhere of desert...and the drummer has a turbant...One more time...: Very Nice yaar.

[loverman0o0]

Karetun Alliee , Keep it Up , Be omide Azadie Vatan o Azadie MUSIC !! ;)

[W1zardHat]

This is so bad ass.

[rak000]

thanks man, a lot of my friends in Iran were blasting this when they were rioting against Ahmadinejad

[RohamK96]

this song's style is like iron maiden. i like it.

[rak000]

thats awesome, a lot of people have also said that. im gonna go buy one of their CDs tmrw. i only know 1 of their songs on guitar hero lol

[RohamK96]

eival

[Hausmacherart]

yes, my first thought was: this sounds like iron maiden!^^ great

[rak000]

lol so many people have said that about this song. This band is probably influenced a little by iron maiden

[PeraStudent]

Heyli hubb va ziba. Doosteye shoma az Sirbistan.

Merci!! Sirbistan koja hast? Serbia?

[fuel1919]

Hello from TX. This band sounds great. Sound like DreamTheater acting like men. Just playing DT is cool too.

[rak000]

hahahahaha that was a good one. i fuckin love dream theater but i admit that voice of his can get kinda annoying sometimes.

[mebadguy]

how can i download this track?? awesome!

[saman677]

Yeah ...He's best in iran

[lignumlig]

Hi Iranian friends, many greetings from Turkey :)))) I listened your song and appreciated so much your efforts. In Turkey in festivals and concerts, I have met many friends coming from Iran. That's very good to see you here in festivals. Keep on ROCKIN' guys!!!!

[SDSnyper]

It would be pretty funny, yet cool if heavy metal is what ends up bringing peace to the mid east... I don't know what these guys are saying but most heavy metal fans tend to be pretty level headed, decent people..

[Fagyhamu]

Great Music greetings from Hungary Iranian brothers :D:D:DDD

[rak000]

Thank you so much, I heard Germans and Hungarians are actually descendants of the Persians because Iran literally means. "Land of the Aryans". I listen to a lot of Folk/viking metal one of my favorite songs is Echo of Dalriada - Téli ének which is a hungarian folk metal band. check them out i really love them

[turmion666]

very good!!!

[Maiden6Trooper]

The intro is so Iron Maiden, I loved it. Spread the metal around Iran :)

[rak000]

I started listening to Iron maiden after so many people told me they sound similar. Im trying my best to spread the metal as best as i can. Metallica wanted to come to Iran since so many people emailed the band urging them to come but the oppresive government didnt allow them to do a tour in iran

[Theshadow89]

Amazing song!!

Hail Metal \m/

Greetings from Palestine.

[acerb45666555]

yeah! * * * * * Iran Rocks!!

[MaidenAttack]

I love this song, awesome

[juliehermiz]

i am hooked on iranian heavy metal now. the riffs, hooks, etc are timeless. this band is up there with the worlds greatest, iron maiden, guns n roses, metallica, avenged sevenfold and the rest. i thoroughly enjoyed this.

[rak000]

wow i cant tell you how happy your comment just made me. i guess the extra edge iranian metal has is that the words have so much meaning because the people have undergone so much pain and abuse from the government and the only way they can expess it is through music.

[gat6000]

what are the lyrics?

[rak000]

do u want me to translate the whole song? or just tell you the overall meaning of it? it would be kinda hard to translate cuz the lyrics are 1000 years old literally lol

[gat6000]

lol nah just the overall brief meaning I guess

[ikvsabre]

If you could translate as much as you can, that would be awesome.

Yup, this sounds like classic 80s metal, when metal. Very impressive!

[DOWN0FREE0THINKER]

bahale!!

[rak000]

kheyli mamnoon hastam ke khoshet miyad!!

[vancitymafia]

nice sounds kinda like iron maiden kinda style

where you guys from?

[rak000]

Im really glad you like this!!! this isnt my band, its a CD i got from an underground metal concert in Iran. Heavy metal is kinda condemned in Iran but this is the only band that got a permit to make music because their lyrics are poetry from PErsian history. ill never give up until the government lets all Iranians blast metal in the streets!!!!!!!!!

[Staplesz]

i agree with you how can we go about supporting shit like this?

[MaidenAttack]

Woow!! ^^ more interesting!!! heavy metal forever!! ;) \m/

[rak000]

Awesome! im glad you liked it, if u liked this song u will definatly like Kafaran and Khazahen gheseha they are also epic as hell

[markofthebeastxx]

Please let me know where I can download this. It's awesome!!!!

[rak000]

if u have AOL instant messenger i can send u the whole album if ud like

[Staplesz]

yeah i would love to ask you some questions i'm glad you took the time to post this, my email is my staplesdcc at gmail

[mebadguy]

[rak000]

Pyromainiac000 (i made it in 5th grade lol)
