Ahoora is an unique Iranian band. Track taken from the 2006´s album "Ahoora"

Taken from the official websites: Ahoora, was formed late 2001, in Tehran, the capital of an extreme Islamic country called Iran. The influences were shown in the early covers: Iced Earth, Iron Maiden, Metallica, and Black Sabbath ...etc.The band recorded its first demo tape back in 2004, due to gain permission from the culture ministry of Islamic Iran: breaking the broken!

In May 2005 Ahoora played its first official gig, the first metal performance ever with vocals parts in Iran. The band played two sets, First: Iced Earth songs & the 2nd set included four Ahoora songs that later were heard on the debut album. Ahoora was forced to cancel the second night though.

February 13th 2006, saw the self titled debut album came out as a forbidden release in Iran. Although the release can be analyzed as a unique event in Iranian music scene, the foreign feedbacks have always been stronger. Ultimate Metal called it "hard-hitting, true heavy metal , while The Metal Observer wrote They are walking a very fine line, very fit on their instruments".

The band experienced some international critic and also was invited to play at Evergreen Music Festival in Washington D.C; missed because of the strict exit laws. The late concert in support of the first release was cancelled by the authorities in September 2006, left no chance to perform the whole length album for the fans and made Ahoora a completely banned act. Throughout the recording of the second album, the band missed the chance of performing at 07 version of famous Metal Camp. The idea was shut down thanks to the Exit laws of Iran.

All in Blood with You came out September 30th, 2007 which has been a major step forwards in many ways, as The Metal Observer believes: they are back with "All In Blood with You" and they have definitely made a big step forward in many ways. Ultimate Metal called it an incredible release that everyone should check out while Progressive Rock&Metal described it as A surprisingly quality metal masterpiece.
