Glad there are headbangers in Tehran to listen and buy these guys' CDs. They might not be the Iranian equivalent of GWAR or Man o War, but they're all metal.
Seriously, these dudes are the truth! Their studio got blown up by a rocket. I can't think of another band that can claim that. It's hard to get more METAL than that!
Playing music, as an end to itself, especially in the midst of all that, isn't virtuous. It can be romanticized all you like (and you NEED to, jsut to jusitf it), but the fact is that unless art seeks social change, it's just crayon scribbling.
@jackdtroughton Art, specifically music, doesn't need to seek social change, sorry. It's very powerful when it does change society (for better or worse), but art is expression, and it does not need to impact anything unless it seeks out to do so. You neglect every other form of art thats independent when you call it "just crayon scribbling". I really disagree with you on that.
he don´t give a fuck about the news...i don´t know what i´m supposed to say i mean they are not singing about war but living around it...that´s so...don´t know what to say.
@Fantasiponnyn like alot of young people he just wants to live his life in the moment and have a good time, he doesn't need that crap..unfortunatley he was right in the middle of it
If you don't know.....we iraqi's have our technical death band..called dog faced corpse. they're releasing their first demo....those guys don't play....
"...it's like, I don't give a fuck about the news, I just want to rock" (rest of band murmures agreement) THAT is the most badass line I have ever heard! These guys have to carry guns to friggin practice, for the love of Pete. Guys like that are just what metal needs to keep it fresh, young and growing. Rock on brothers!
Seriously...is there any way we can fund them?...would it be so hard for the rest of the world to raise a little money to get them some good amps, pedals, guitars and a drum kit like that?...i mean cmon this is fucking unbeleivable lol
Just finished reading the book Heavy Metal in Baghdad, and what can I say, just astonished. Puts things into perspective when I think I am learning the guitar with my son and daughter in our very safe world down under in Australia. Music does cross the divide. All power to you.
@DrautBlackMetal , basically Islam does not prevent muslim from playing metal.. AS LONG AS muslims are well disciplined to observe the 5 pillars (prayers, fasting, etc.) and believe in One God.. that's all.. no problem at all for muslim to play rock music.. dont get confused with some of radical muslims.. most of muslim around the world are open.
@MetalHeadISR I am Iraqi and I knew those guys i ve been in all of their concerts, and I know them personnaly , I wish them the good because the deserve it but did they met james hatfield ??
Watched this last night on IFC and loved it ,but it made me sad for these guys.These guys rocked and I think they would be hugh in the US. Their GOV sucks. Here in the US we think we have it rough and our GOV sucks too!! IF our Gov tried that shit WE THE PEOPLE WILL KICK YOUR ASSES. and they know it! These guys were cool I liked them ,they jammed I wish I could talk to them and I hope their safe and make it to the US.
#1: The U.S. military says a barrage of rockets has struck a joint American-Iraqi base south of Baghdad, killing every gay people in the village but damaging their equipment but the Mexican army left. The US military says about 10 rockets struck Camp Sparrowhawk, near the town of Amarrah. It says the attack began early Saturday morning. Maj. Myles Caggins, a military spokesman, says the rockets have injured two Iraqi soldiers. He also says there was minor damage to equipment.
I'm grateful to be able to see something like this. I live in the united states and nothing is better or more honest, and harder to find, than a natives point of view. All people have to do is care enough to watch something like this, then they can differentiate bullshit from the facts. It isn't too much too ask, and if people really cared they would shut their mouths and turn off fox news and listen to native people. It's common sense, and it's amazing how little of it is around. GREAT doc.
@amorefati I totally agree with you in terms of "the natives point of view "thing. Even though I have a partner who comes from Morocco and he is not persecuted for his conviction - BUT well discriminated by his own fellow Moroccans here in Germany (!)- it is for this very reason so important to listen to people who learned sth the hard way.
don't like how he said he doesnt care bout the news. Pretty heavy though, and cool that they're opening up the metal genre to Iraqis, so maybe some other bands will come through(like political bands and stuff)
fun and see their home country, I have only good memories of Iraq, I left Iraq when I was 11 years old and now I live in Sweden since then, this documentary takes me back to my old good life in Baghdad, I see my dreams in the these guys are, I am so happy for them, may God save the.
shame shame , the world's finest city, the city has destroyed, all these murderers and American and shit Islamists.
@6control9 yeah i think that is something that no one can disagree with, think about it: this breaks every fucking rule of the society they life in its sooo couragous
Oh shit! the guy in 2:35 on the far left fucking looks like my cousin!!!!!!!! I'm so gonna call my auntie and aske her "hey is your son playing in a band by any chance?" she wont reply because hse wouldn't hear me because of the bad connection to baghdad
fuck manowar and the likes, those guys are the actual shit <3 if mere act of playing proper metal could be the grounds of getting yer head blown off (talking about extremes, ofc), it works wonders with the credibility of their lyrics
what song is that through most of the video i love how they use that one instrement commonly found in middle east music it starts at like...2:33 so yeah just the name of that song would be nice, thanks
@MetalHeadISR I am Iraqi and I knew those guys i ve been in all of their concerts and I know them personaly ,they are awesome but you say they met james hatefield is that happened cause I dont have contacts with them now
@MetalHeadISR I am Iraqi and I knew those guys i ve been in all of their concerts, and I know them personnaly , I wish them the good because the deserve it but did they met james hatfield ??
You are the most Inept individual I have ever heard. These guys worked thier asses off to achieve the 'american dream' and assholes like you just bash thier shit. FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!!!
fuck u, baghdad has computers and stuff. its like you think its just a bunch of fields and trees and like they dig up holes to shit in the ground?! lol
when i first saw this i was speechless, i fucking love the heart of these guys and the music they play. long live heavy metal, this proves no matter where you are, metal will never die.
rock on! long live metal! long live Acrassicauda. these guys will make it bigtime and show the world there are positive influences within iraq benehind the terrorists and US forces.
some of dumbass comment here is so fucking disgusting!!!!!..this guys sucks?!think and watch before u open your nonsense fucking mouth.this guys is dying to play heavy metal,they risk their lives for music!..they have a strong faith for metal..this guys deserve much more respect!!..
Oh, forgot to say, i think its great to see metal all over the world, to see an Iraqi metal band gives me a joyful feeling, it doesnt matter where one is from, the music unites!
The only people intitled to think the band is shit ,is people who've formed a band in a country like Iraq was under Saddam , and then continued through a fucking warzone . How do you practice and get better when your practice room's been bombed and your instruments blown to shit , then half the band have to escape the warzone etc etc . No they arnt the best band in the world , but is that the point ?
And just for the record, I want to say don't get me wrong. It's not like I think these guys COMPLETELY suck.
I have a huge respect for them, and the fact that they persevere even though they all know a day could come where they die all because of the prejudice against their music. And I actually am from Iraq. Well, northern Iraq that is, not as bad as other areas of Iraq. I moved to Canada when I was very young.
these guys rule. but i reckon they should grow their hair and just weear turbins or something.....then they dont have to hide what they are so much i guess.
i´ve seen this documentary on a short film festival and all i have to say is the people who say this guys sucks are compleatly fucked up, this guys are living in a place where music like heavy metal is worse than being on streets with a gun or granade in your hand and they need to hide for practice with a cheap equipment in a poor room with bombs dropping around and the only thing they wanna do is play heavy metal that is gorgous i think
You seem to miss the point. Doesn't fucking matter, they could be living in fucking Auschwitz, it wouldnt make their music any better. I respect them immensely for the struggle they go through but honestly it doesn't make them a better band.
Yes it does, there can't be any more hate inspired metal then this. Maybe you don't like it but i think you don't have any fucking motivation to do anything that makes sense in your life.
Again, missing the point. Musical quality has nothing to do with the people who make it. People here are commenting on the OBJECTIVE quality of the music they play, not on the people in the band.
well yea they suck and every goddamn iraqi metalhead knows that lol but u should check the other awesome iraqi and (true) metal bands , look for dog faced corpse , brutal impact and amargi .... etc

I dislike their attitude but I have a great respect for what they are doing. Its wonderful to see that metal reaches so far across the world.

well i guess when all you see is war, occupation death, murder and corruption it makes you a hard person.

Oh, forgot to say, i think its great to see metal all over the world, to see an Iraqi metal band gives me a joyful feeling, it doesnt matter where one is from, the music unites!

The only people intitled to think the band is shit ,is people who've formed a band in a country like Iraq was under Saddam , and then continued through a fucking warzone . How do you practice and get better when your practice room's been bombed and your instruments blown to shit , then half the band have to escape the warzone etc etc . No they arnt the best band in the world , but is that the point ?

In all honesty, I don't like them too much musically.
I can really appreciate the shit they had to go through to be able to play it, though, so props to them.
HelloHalo117 3 years ago
Hmm. actually, I just heard a couple of tracks off of a demo a friend found for me. These guys aren't bad, but they're not stellar either.
Once again, I really respect them for continuing their music, even though they have to go through so much shit.
HelloHalo117 3 years ago
And just for the record, I want to say don't get me wrong. It's not like I think these guys COMPLETELY suck.
I have a huge respect for them, and the fact that they persevere even though they all know a day could come where they die all because of the prejudice against their music. And I actually am from Iraq. Well, northern Iraq that is, not as bad as other areas of Iraq. I moved to Canada when I was very young.

A free and prosperous Iraq is near.

i´ve seen this documentary on a short film festival and all i have to say is the people who say this guys sucks are compleatly fucked up, this guys are living in a place where music like heavy metal is worse than being on streets with a gun or granade in your hand and they need to hide for practice with a cheap equipment in a poor room with bombs dropping around and the only thing they wanna do is play heavy metal that is gorgous i think

You seem to miss the point. Doesn't fucking matter, they could be living in fucking Auschwitz, it wouldnt make their music any better. I respect them immensely for the struggle they go through but honestly it doesn't make them a better band.
celticknife 3 years ago
Yes it does, there can't be any more hate inspired metal then this. Maybe you don't like it but i think you don't have any fucking motivation to do anything that makes sense in your life.
bonkswa 3 years ago 3
Again, missing the point. Musical quality has nothing to do with the people who make it. People here are commenting on the OBJECTIVE quality of the music they play, not on the people in the band.

What do you have to offer that qualifies you as an objective and unbiased critic of metal music?

I haven't watched it all yet, but something I noticed was that they actually subtitled those in the band and not the interviewer.
Oh wut?
Still, this seems fucking awesome, I can't wait to see it all!
