Satura

Audacious metalcore revitalized by modern soundscapes, Satura has led Iran’s metalcore scene for over a decade. Founded by guitarist Ashkan Safapour in 2008, Satura soon began composing original music. Unlike other Iranian bands of the time, Satura drew influence from 2000s metalcore acts like As I Lay Dying and Trivium. With two albums and an EP to its name, Satura has consistently evolved, each release raising the bar. In 2013, Satura released Resentment, their second album, featuring new vocalist and producer Mahbod Fard

In 2017, after the EP Rotten Creation with new vocalist Hamoon Moradiyan, Satura performed live in Tehran, reenergized by the global modern metalcore movement. Embracing contemporary metal elements while honoring classic metalcore roots, Satura continues to redefine its sound.
