Arabia (http://www.myspace.com/arabiaoman) is Oman's first and only extreme Black Metal band. The band members are all Omani and are very passionate about their music. The first album they released is titled The Black Pearl (http://cdbaby.com/cd/arabia) and is currently selling in many local music stores and online.

They're second album will be released later this year.

Arabia- Desert Of Lost Souls

Wish them good luck & success

Their work looks professional. Apparently a lot of efforts have been put by this band, obviously actually.

By the way, one of the band's members, Tariq (drummer, the second guy who appears in the 2nd video), attended one of the sabla's football gathering back in summer. Actually it was me who invited him, so yeah.. some of the members here met him before, not sure if they still remember him though.

wow thier work sounds so professional.. if they're looking for a singer i'm here lol ;)

No Creativity, copying the western style of black metal instead of inventing one for their own. How can you get Arab fans by using a western style of black metal instead of something closer or a median of the two to their own cultural and traditional music.

+Salam.

In this world we live, only originality is appreciated. You can have as many Indians trying to "Yes Sir", but they will only work on projects outsourced from around the world. You can have millions of Arab women watching FRIENDS and acting like Ratchel and Monica, and men acting like Ross, but they will always be stupid copycats.

In Muscat Festival, when foreigners visit, they stand and watch the local dances and folklore, not ARABIA or other stupid looking Arabs singing in English.

Wannabes ..

The band's name reflects something and the reality is something else. Where is the arabness in their music?

Sadly, even our music, video clips and series are all westernized.

I just heard their music, not even any good at it :p! And I once used to listen to Rock music!

Oh guyz come on!! why do we always underestimate OMANI products?! XD

Good point Sama, but this is more like those cheap Chinese products that eventually get banned :p

hmmmmmmmmmmm...... i see your opinions are all negative to my uncle and brother's band

dudes listen first of all music is international, second of all ARABIA has a unique way of performing Blakc Metal plus this is NOT rock and they are not wannabes. A band that spent almost 7 years preparing aren't wannabes, they actually love what they are doing and want to prove to the world that Oman exists and acknowledges wht others do...which means we are not living in the past.

For your f'ing information the band reached the places across the sea for example USA.

I didn't like the song there
but
I wish them luck!
:D

hey guys don't get harsh on them, i think their music is cool and looks professional..

waay to go arabia :super: :flag:

Absolutely horrible. I couldn't understand a single word in the song 'desert of lost souls'.

very nice logo though. :P

Crazy song. I didnt like it. lol

dude, YOU CANT EVEN HEAR THE WORDS!!!!!

Absolutely horrible. I couldn't understand a single word in the song 'desert of lost souls'.

grimreaper, I'm sorry but Omanies reached the USA in 1840 and they were the first arab to do so when sultan sayyid Said of Muscat sent his envoy Ahmed bin Na'aman. This represented oman and Omanies.

That's something to be proud of!!

Omanies did not waited to copy some western black metal singers, who most of them are addicted to mixing alcohol and marijuana, to represent Oman and make Oman very well known in the USA!!

so what if they like a western style of music? many westerners delve into arabian styles. even classical western music has a lot of eastern influences...don't diss fusion.
music has no boundaries. don't create them.
good luck to them..hope they break the charts and make a living out of the music they love.
it's hard to understand death metal lyrics, but i have a few albums of South american death bands, and the lyrics are amazing.
can grimreaper post some of them here for our appreciation?

Seems like this is the first time some of you listened to black metal. Maybe you guys should stick to Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.

Black metal is not for the faint of heart!

I don't know what bothering about them singing black metal :os If its the first Arab black Metal Band then its a very big step in rock music!

Seems like this is the first time some of you listened to black metal. Maybe you guys should stick to Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.

Black metal is not for the faint of heart!

Exactly !!..What did you guys expect some rap or love words ??
Do you even know what's metal please dont throw you criticizes just like that !..understand what are they trying to do it's called metal ..

You can google it if you want and some of you wrote we cant hear a thing lol that was funny ..I really liked the song and wish them luck 01001 :hyper:

^^ use \m/ instead of 01001, it looks better ;)

Best of luck to the band! Not my musical genre of choice or preference, but I wish them nothing but the best.

I am not impressed! Was that the quality of the sound or they meant to make the little noise at the background?!

I guess that what they call 'disturtion' in Rock Music. xD
Well, I'm not really impressed .. Still, I like what they're trying to do.
All the best to them .. :cute:

Sorry dude, but I didn't a word from the lyrics of the song .. xD
I guess others were right about this part.

they have a myspace site..

Same here. Not one word.:os

The guitar is so awesome

This is a big step in rock music in Oman...very cool! :)

any ways i know those people personaly , its really s huge step into metal world , they are not wannabes , its black metal but they are not involved in any satanic acts.

i already have their full release.

Seems like this is the first time some of you listened to black metal. Maybe you guys should stick to Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.

Black metal is not for the faint of heart!

lol..I've listened to alot of metal in my life and I know what quality music is and I'm sorry, but this is just not quality music regardless of it's genre.

I don't know why when anyone disagrees with a musical taste then that person ends up being attacked and asked to go to listen to pop music. That's such a lame and overused comeback. :P

------

I do wish them the very best and it's great that they want to make something out of themselves but they'll need to come up with some better stuff to place their music on the map.

LMFAO!!!

Am I the only one that cracked up haaaaaaard here?
That was the best laugh of the day.. I wish them luck n all but waaw.. LOL
Not for me at alllllllll ;p

Thanks for sharing though.. Def Enjoyed my moment :p

Personally.. I hate black metal and I don't appreciate it! And this band is RAW black metal, the distortion is so powerful that it eats up the notes! I've tried this type of distortion before, it's horrible! (Distortion is that electric guitar effect in Metal)

I stopped listening to this type of metal a few months back, after I did, around 60% of my depression issues were cured :) And I'm serious!

Anyway, I think it's an improvement that there is a black metal band in Oman, but why not normal metal bands first? Why did they go all the way to the extreme? From Pink Floyd all the way to Behemoth! lol

for your info guys this is what we like to call underground black metal or ambient noise black metal , its meant to be like this and true metal fans like it the way it is. :love:

LMFAO!!!

Am I the only one that cracked up haaaaaaard here?

+ 1000 :p;)

I just heard their music carefully (out of boredom) on their myspace, and to be honest, its freakin' funny. Try this:

Look at their pictures on myspace as you listen to their songs, it would be freakin' funny, like watching Simpsons performing live rock music :p

*deleted* and you have been issued a warning for your continuous attacks.

i suggest they should adjust their image to their music as well. the single caterpillar mousache over the lips don't go well with death metal. more with a turban and dishdasha. just my opinion.

^^ i was gonna say that too

Not my typa music anyway, regardless of where the band comes from.

oh, and the crescent on the logo wasnt necessary at all.

^ Yeah same thoughts about the crescent!

Their Guitar skills are good
not a fan of Black Metal Though

Absolutely horrible. I couldn't understand a single word in the song 'desert of lost souls'.

very nice logo though. :P

ditto0 :rolleyes:

Omani's are not doing well singing arabic music and this band I can not even comment on their work, masakeen (poor them) lol...

am happy that they are doing a great job to keep people like you away from this perfect music.

hey, im Tariq the rhythm guitarists of the band!

first of all, just to clarify that black metal is not rock, its a type of genre of metal. and now to educate u all of the band, yes we r all omanis, yes we play black metal, but we r certainly not satanic, no way!! all our music is about the arab historical events, and palestine. we do NOT talk about nethin related to religion of any sort.

now some of u say that u cannot understand any words or the sound quality is bad, hey... its the first record, give us a break! and btw that is the sound quality of every major first black metal album of ne band, just look them up. and trust me the second album is clearer, and we will have the lyrics in the cd covers.

so u say we r wannabes.... we worked for 7 years..7 YEARS!! yet we r wannabes, some of u dont know wut ur talkin about. and wut do u mean we dont have creativity... how did we create music if we dont have creativity?? think bout wut ur sayin first, then say wut u want.

yes we are all proud that oman was the first arab country to go to america in the 1800's, but that was back then.. if u ask anyone in the west about oman NOW, they wouldnt know wut ur talkin about.. but we got there.. our music started selling there and the UK... u tell me, wut did u guys do to reach that far? wut did u guys accomplish that meant so much to, and that could make difference to the country??

march 15 we will be appearing on Zero Tolerance Magazine in the UK, the biggest selling metal magazine. and u say we suck!

well we dont care how bad u critisize us, cuz im sure u dont know wut ur talkin about, some of u dont even listen to black metal yet critisize us.

thank those of u who do not listen to metal, yet support us... i thank u very dearly and i thank the metal heads and the people who understand wut we r doin. \m/:flag:

What in the world is black metal is it like heavy metal i.e. AC/DC? Ozzie? Metalica??? I love these bands.

(I cannot access the videos).

Metal is a genre of music, heavy, power, black, death etc. r sub-genres

black metal is a much faster and brutal type of metal

Heavy Metal: Ozzy, Judas Priest, Metallica etc.
Black Metal: Venom, Dimmu Borgir, Behemoth etc.
Power Metal: Iron Maiden, Manowarr etc.
Death Metal: Deicide, Death etc.
and so on.. there is a difference.

and AC/DC is considered rock btw

hey tito i criticised the caterpillar moustache :hyper: not the music.

hehehe, ye the caterpillar mustache

dude that's an old pic.. n btw, the mustache is not a big deal, just look at the pic of the lead guitarist of Dimmu Borgir, he has the same mustache

hehehe, ye the caterpillar mustache

dude that's an old pic.. n btw, the mustache is not a big deal, just look at the pic of the lead guitarist of Dimmu Borgir, he has the same mustache
i'd prefer a goatee or a clean shaven man. caterpillar moustache reminds me of my dad when i was about 7 rofl.

Ahhhh thanks for the info. I grew up listening to AC/DC in high school (1980's) so for this old gal we considered it heavy metal. :alien:

we are already selling copies in stores in Oman, and the USA and UK. we r also selling online, visit this site: cdbaby.com/cd/arabia

I liked all the legends. Music was music back then. Even those where heavy metal gets their roots. Without people like Janis Joplin or Jimi Hendrix or Led Zeppelin II, Deep Purple in Rock where would metal be?

deep purple in rock is my most fav album ever..i have the vinyl original....love black sabbath, but deep purple is the music i grew up with...listening to my mum's collection which she inherited after her bro passed over. brilliant.

ye that's true but with rock... metal started when Toni Iommi of Black Sabbath came up with the idea.. almost at the same time as Led Zep

but they went different directions if u get wut im sayin

Man, I wonder how much your mum's collection is worth!

it's mine and it's not for sale :D

I do, I think with Janis and Jimi they were bringing in some new ways of approaching music, which in turn paved the way for wilder more creative sounds. Jimi was a fav of mine. I used to listen to him all the time when I was stationed overseas.

omggggggggggggggg some ppl r realy blind n they r not liveing the age
i dont even remmber what did i eat yasterday..so r u telling me that the presdent of the U.S.A remmbers what happend 2 the X X X X X X U.S.A presdent in 1800's that is not even relited 2 him???

ppl did u ever tryed listning 2 the crap of L.I.N.E.S or babylon?(omani bands)
THEY'V KILLEDMETAL
belive my words for they r true..arabia is a band that is saveing metal in oman
n b4 saying that if the sound is clear or not..just try 2 learn what the hell is black metal

2 be honest just knowing there is a black metal band in oman that has reached U.S.A n U.K makes me feel very proud

n ya..when every time i chat with any 1 from the westren lands they ask me whats oman?

i dont know what 2 say 2 u ppl..just open ur minds
i never saw any 1 of arabia
n i never talked 2 any of them
but i do repact them n what they r trying 2 achive
@ list they r doing something not just talking about something they dont know about like some of u ppl

KEEP IT UP ARABIA
JUST KNOW THAT U'V GOT ALL OF OUR SOPPORT \\M/

ya true, i agree, i mean also listen to Jimi, his music just never dies.. and he is really an influence to us

Lay off these guys people! Whether or not you like their music (personally I'm not a fan of the genre, and sure maybe I have some constructive musical criticisms too), they are out there doing it.

It takes some balls to stand up in front of a crowd and sing and play something you have created from nothing. Respect to anyone who does that, whether or not it's going in my record collection.

Tito & Co, you have a right to be proud that you are selling CDs outside Oman, even if it's only a handful! It's more than the real "wannabees" here who never played outside their dad's living room, will ever achieve. And I'm probably one of those too!

When I was in Oman recently, a friend of mine actually played your CD in the car. It's not my taste, and I think there is always room for improvement, but good luck and best wishes to all you guys: Live music, original music, is all good even if only one person wants to listen to it. You're beyond that now, so congratulations and tofeeq in sha Allah.

I don't have anything against their music. Just curious as to what it sounds like since I cannot access the site. But I do wish them luck.

well said Mimo. :yes:

all the best you guys. =D

THNX mimosa!

Tito, I'm glad your here defending what you guys do best. ;) \m/

ye man, ofcourse, i mean if critisizms like that happened to u, wut would u do?

Are they whispering or what? It's scary...it's like they're calling the devil or something.

Why do we need METAL in Oman? All we need is an "Oud" and Jalsaat.

Metal is not our culture. Why forget our great culture and go do what the west does? Did you know that System of A Down actually played the "Oud" in their song "Nuguns"? Well, they did that but made it blend in THEIR music, not OUR music. So why not get that metal guitar of yours and play it in an Arabian way? If not .. you might as well....(censored)

listen! we dont play music in ways that u like! we dont play it for u or ne1, we play it for the country! wut do u mean if not , we might as well.. wut ever ur tryin to say. this music is not to ur liking, if u dont like it, then there r lots of walls around, n u know wut to do!

we tryin to play metal and make a difference for the country, we r bringin a name to the country, that doesnt mean that we forget our culture. y do u think like that? that's children talk, be open minded plz

Being open-minded has its limits.

it shows u dont understand us. but i have a question, why??? why are u against wut we r doin??? why does our band threaten u??

it shows u dont understand us. but i have a question, why??? why are u against wut we r doin??? why does our band threaten u??

Tariq ..
It doesnt threaten anyone ..

The thing is .. in Oman .. more than 70% listen to Arabian music or Khaleeji Music and Arabian Khaleeji Music never has the Black Metal kind of music that you guys use .. thats why people over here finding it very weird that you guys playing this kind of music .. specially because you are Omani's and Omani culture doesnt follow this kind of music ..

But I think its okay to practice the stuff you are good at .. that doesn't make you a wannabe .. A wannabe is when you call yourself something which you are not .. and clearly they are not since even their name is Arabia which indicates where they are from ..

Congratulations for reaching this far .. its a good effort .. :)

Lets hope next album will be clearer ..

Ross, I don't think football or cars are part of traditional Omani culture either, but you seem happy to adopt them. You heard the man, what they sing about is not against religion or in conflict with the cultural sensitivities of ordinary people. If you don't like their music, don't buy it...but give the guys a break...they are doing something original, and that's good!

Cars are a form of transportation, football is a Sport. Metal is something I do not classify as Music.

^ Then Don't Listen To Nothing Else Matters.

hey, dude, my name is Tariq and the guy in the second pic, but im afraid u mistook me with the other Tariq. im the rhythm guitarist, he wuz the drummer in the band before he quit

I am not a fan of a genre but I do understand how much effort you put into your music and I applaud that you're trying to make a name for yourself, that's always a great thing. I was attacked here for not liking the genre and that something I will never tolerate nor respect, I always said that people are free to like what they want to like, so it would be great if everyone just respected the fact that people have different tastes in music.

I do wish u all the very best and again..very nice logo you have just remove the crescent moon and it'll be perfect. :D

Rossonero, I'd rather listen to Metal than the 'Oud' or any other Jalsa session.

same here :XD:
Tito, its always like this. Keep doing your thing man, take the good out of criticism and leave the rest to trash can.
The first signs of failure is to try to make everybody happy. Most of people are happy with your music and the rest are not because its not their type. Doing something that doesn't belong to your culture doesn't mean you hate your culture, but most people look at it this way :D

ya man i know, if it wuz constructive critisizm, then i would've accepted them. but people critisizin us without knowin wut the music is or understandin wut we r tryin to do. so ofcourse im gonna be this way, n btw, its not only me, but the whole band.

Marilyn Manson sounds like a lullaby compared to this XD
Honestly I wouldn't listen to this at home or in the car etc
but if there was a concert I'd be there in a jiffy.
I think you guys need to focus more on jigs than selling albums cuz thats where the money is in metal.

Impressive musicianship and wall of sound music, but the vocals are mixed too low and are drowned by the guitars so I couldn't tell a single word of the lyrics. I'd be interested in getting the album. I hope they try something new, like maybe Arabic metal or mixing Arabic instruments into the music. That would really be something impressive if they do.

ya that's true, but as soon as we release the second album. the second album is done and its much clearer, but we still need to package it. we we cant make a concert n play only 5 songs, that's a waste of money to u guys.

we r gonna make a big concert after the release of the second album, and we will invite a band from KSA called Wasted Land, they play death/power metal.

just like i said before, any major black metal band's first album sounds like that, its just the first album. the second one is clearer. btw, we tried mixing oud and nay in all of the songs but the sound just doesn't fit in.

To all whom said " I didnt understand a word" Do you know what is black metal ?

Please stop giving an opinion about some thing you have no clue about.... try to know what it is then judge .. Do not be like :

How about singing in Arabic?

Al hamdullilah i stopped , i wasted so much time and money on it. Wallah its not worth it.

The wise man has talked :respect:

hahahaha seriously this is sadly a show of how little metalheads there is in oman and arab countries and for people who dont listen to metal well keep ur un benefited critisim to yourself as for arabia go on \m/ you should be proud as the first proper omani black metal band and please inform us as soon as you decide on a date and venue for ur concert


\M/ keep metal evil \M/

You guys should be considering stopping sales for "The Black Pearl"; anyone who hears it will be seriously turned off from wanting to hear anymore of your music, the editing in that CD is horrible, was it recorded in a proper studio or home recorded? I know some guys who gathered about 500 bucks and recorded an EP which sounded four times as good as that. You say you have a new album coming out than stop all promotion of The Black Pearl and focus only on the new album.

Don't blame it on being your first album, allot of first albums were recorded in some perfect clarity and don't blame the vocals on being death metal there's no reason for not being able to hear anything other than some very bad editing.

Music wise I think the songs are monotonous and over repetitive, you should focus and giving the songs some more melody or giving them an aggressive edge. You sound too much like every other band out there, and most people who will buy your albums will be doing it because you are the first Omani's to do this, not because of the exquisite musicianship, give yourselves an edge over competition by adding some authentic flavor and flare to your style. Don't be afraid to experiment everyone in a while just keep the creative juices flowing.

Start playing gigs in here, people are guaranteed to show up because there won't be any where else to go to for some rock.

you listened to black metal until you came to the point of knowing its not worth it. That resulted in this, so I guess others have the right to listen and taste some of the craziness and then decide for themselves if its worth it or not. Thats how we learn in life ;)

First of all, we r not gonna stop the sale of "The Black Pearl" because its a hit!! u want proof, check out www.ztmag.com, scroll down to where it says CD 1 and CD 2, n ull find our song in there... further more, ZT magazine (Zero Tolerance) is one of the biggest metal magazines in the UK.. they want to interview us soon.. wut do u think about that!

And if u haven't heard correctly i said, all BLACK METAL albums, sound like that.. u maybe regarding about other music genres...

and we will soon have a concert, as soon as we release our second album.. cuz think about it, people dont pay money to c a band play only 5 songs..

oh n btw, we do have a studio.. no other band in the country has it..

Getting your song on that magazine's CD doesn't really qualify the album as a hit, and if that magazine is one of the UK's biggest than they have some serious reading material shortages over there.

Stop saying all first black metal albums sound like that, they don't. I don't know if you really believe this or just are just making excuses for your album but also check out some of the demo's on the same CD your track is on and I'm pretty sure there will be tracks of higher quality.

You can have a concert without the release of an album, you could still play the songs from the second album even though it's not released you know that? And you could also do a few covers.

You guys are the only band in the country to have a studio? Well good for you.

Any ways you wont be dominating the music world (^^)

cant compare your music with watain and Burzum
any ways nice music so far :)

looooooooool soulless comon man can u compare swedish and norwain bands to arabian bands metal hasnt been that long here to reach that level i would say that arabia is quite good and pickledpablo what groups have you heared so we can see the difference in their first album

My god, the ignorance in this thread is just too hilarious.

TiTo, although I'm not fan of black metal (and hence, i haven't bothered checking out your CD)...all I can say is keep doin' your thing. These idiots don't seem to realise that not everyone has chart topping records at their debut. Hope your hustle will get u guys somewhere in the future.

peace!

They're on the week .. Tomorrow's edition ..

Niice!

Personally.. I hate black metal and I don't appreciate it! And this band is RAW black metal, the distortion is so powerful that it eats up the notes! I've tried this type of distortion before, it's horrible! (Distortion is that electric guitar effect in Metal)

I stopped listening to this type of metal a few months back, after I did, around 60% of my depression issues were cured :) And I'm serious!

Anyway, I think it's an improvement that there is a black metal band in Oman, but why not normal metal bands first? Why did they go all the way to the extreme? From Pink Floyd all the way to Behemoth! lol


hey man this is shabeeb... from arabia.. if you dont like black metal, then y did u come to our studio to play... u cant even play heavy metal properly u n ur show-off friend ++++. dont talk about music if u dont know nethin.. distortion is the key to metal.. in other words heaviness is the main core of heavy metal.. not overdrive..

man at least we reached in other countries.. UK, Greece, USA, Slovakia, Japan.. our albums are being sold in these countries and the main stock is in America, Portland to be exact.. cdbaby.com/cd/arabia

ya3ni, without even makin a concert we got that far.. u with concerts, where did u reach..

ur sayin all this stuff cuz u never accomplished nethin as important as we have..

we even came out in local newspapers, local radio stations and in US radio stations..

btw we r doin this for oman not for u or people like u, the only way u can help us is support..

Shabeeb

No disrespect intended, but what are the benefits you get out of this apart of money *and fame as you claim*?

btw we r doin this for oman not for u or people like u, the only way u can help us is support..



I understand why you're defensive, but with all due respect no one would want to support anyone who displays such a hostile attitude and from what I've seen all the people who actually listen to this genre of music have a very negative attitude and attitude problems in general. Fine you like Metal and you're defending your band, which you have every right to do, but theres absolutely no need for you to say things like 'people like you' and so on. Be polite and patient in your replies and I'm sure people will eventually have much more respect for you and the work you do. You and your followers jumped on many members here who simply posted their opinions and feelings on having an Omani metal band, the best you can do is listen and if you don't agree then you can defend in a more mature, constructive and positive manner.

---

So tell me, is it true that you can't sell your music in shops in Oman? and why?

No disrespect intended, but what are the benefits you get out of this apart of money *and fame as you claim*?no disrespected intended, but that was a stupid question.

It's like asking: "What are the benefits of getting a collage degree besides ending up with a decent job in the future and starting a family?"

no disrespected intended, but that was a stupid question.

It's like asking: "What are the benefits of getting a collage degree besides ending up with a decent job in the future and starting a family?"


It would've been much better if you've waited to see if the questioned person got an answer, then you enlighten us with your philosophy.


Anyways, what I was trying to ask for, any sort of skills or knowledge can be gained out of this profession!!

It would've been much better if you've waited to see if the questioned person got an answer, then you enlighten us with your philosophy.


Anyways, what I was trying to ask for, any sort of skills or knowledge can be gained out of this profession!!oh I'm sorry, I didn't know that was the purpose expected from music. I thought that was the reason why we bought books and went to school.

No disrespect intended, but what are the benefits you get out of this apart of money *and fame as you claim*?

number 1, the benefits is that we make money to live.. this is the way we know best. music is our life.. wut about all the other artists.. they r millionares from wut they did.. they did not give up wut they are doin and look where they are right now..

if u dont understand that then i have nothin more to say

a writer write 2 earn his money
a farmer farm 2 earn his money
bands play music 2 earn there money
its that simple

i know about ppl in the world wide who listen 2 black,heavy,death,gothic,speed,power and doom metal
i know also ppl who love rap
i know also ppl who love just the old typ of bahrini song's
etc..

they all have a good typ of attitude.. and we r all 2 blame?
why?
every human loves 2 live his own life
they wanna drink???well let them drink thats noun of ur bisness
they wanna pary???well let them pary coz this is still noun of ur bisness
UR NOT GOD 2 TELL WHATS A BAD ATTITUDE AND WHATS NOT
god judge us (black metal fan's) but not u
coz ur just another human whos full of sin's
meaby loveing horror faction is concederd a bad thing and thats meaby a sin
but im sure u as a human has some 2..
tell me arent u a lier?a thife?etc..
u must have a bad side human
dont act parfect

so.. i just dont under stand the meaning of this santance..((what I've seen all the people who actually listen to this genre of music have a very negative attitude and attitude problems in general.))

its black metal, thats what you get, their pretty good. To whoever said their wannabe's recheck what you said, those guys have been playing since they were 14. The founder of the band started playing without lesseons, he can see anything being played on tv and play it, he doesnt even used notes or the musical notes to play. He just plays F.Y.I.

They wouldnt be in Wikapedia, known as a global black metal band if they werent good, and their songs wouldnt be played in USA, UK GREECE, JAPAN and many other places if they werent good.

In my opinion, their awsome, worked so hard, and who ever judged their music knows nothing about black metal, cause their not the avril lavigne rock.

No disrespect intended, but what are the benefits you get out of this apart of money *and fame as you claim*?

you might be surprised, they didnt make a dime. They spent money on his band that can buy a house, the founder spent his own money to buy the studio, and travel. Someone whos been working since they were teens wouldnt be seeking for fame and money, their trying this way to bring out arab and islam problems to the outer world, check their lyrics, if you cant understand them from the songs, then download them.

i support this band 100%

hahaha generalizing nabhan is not a very good thing we dont have attitude problems:angel: its just that when people dont admire our genre of music u dont have to criticize it if you dont have a background to base your criticism
we dont go and say that we dont need madona in oman how would you feel about that rofl

once those guys are on MTV representing oman ya'll will like them :D atleast their doing something

check out the 2 samples of the new album Arabian Blood at the myspace site

www.myspace.com/arabiaoman

Tomorrow April 13, 2008 The Black Pearl album will be officially sold at Harley Davidson Motorcyles shop in al Khuwair, Muscat, Oman.. enjoy!

hey man this is shabeeb... from arabia.. if you dont like black metal, then y did u come to our studio to play... u cant even play heavy metal properly u n ur show-off friend ++++. dont talk about music if u dont know nethin.. distortion is the key to metal.. in other words heaviness is the main core of heavy metal.. not overdrive..

Shabeeb

I came to the studio to play guitar, not because I like that crappy music.. I don't remember you doing anything but brag about your music, and at the end, I only saw you playing nothing but power chords.. Oh well, black metal is all about power chords and no solo right? ;)

So you've reached all those countries eh? Japan, UK and blah blah blah, well I have a question, don't you say that distortion is an important thing in metal? What about drums? Do the buyers in all these countriers know that you guys don't have a drummer? All this and I'm not sure what you are bragging all about! What a rip off!!

Another thing, people are buying arabia's album not because they like their music, but because they are the only black metal band around here.. Personally, I wouldn't want to sell MY music if I knew that people weren't buying it for my talent, but only buying it because they want to have the "Omani Black Metal" album.. 5 Rials gone to waste, I'd rather buy 7 and a half shawerma's with that money..

And I'm sure you have noticed that the week made fun of the band and the music.. That really nailed it.. Look at the cover page saying "Oman's only black metal band Arabia can't sell their albums in shops here but they'll be heard anyhow".. This actually means that you people are annoying trying to force others to hear your music.. I was laughing when I read that!

I would just like to see the sales chart of the band so that I can clap..

Distortion of the instruments is one thing.. but to distort the vocals in that degree is another ;)

Q:Could you please post the lyrics for me? I would like to read them.

Distortion of the instruments is one thing.. but to distort the vocals in that degree is another ;)

we don't use distortion on vocals you got it the wrong way bro in black metal music most bands don't use distortion in the vocals

The lead vocal sounds a bit wearied....but it could be my speakers :mmhmm:

this is how pure raw black metal sounds like...

Not a fan of black metal :yell:

pwnd......

pwnd......

pwny.........

name of the band sounds like Nancy 3ajram or Ruby , need to change this silly name.

I agree with Sting

In this world we live, only originality is appreciated. You can have as many Indians trying to "Yes Sir", but they will only work on projects outsourced from around the world. You can have millions of Arab women watching FRIENDS and acting like Ratchel and Monica, and men acting like Ross, but they will always be stupid copycats.

In Muscat Festival, when foreigners visit, they stand and watch the local dances and folklore, not ARABIA or other stupid looking Arabs singing in English.

Well said Sting

name of the band sounds like Nancy 3ajram or Ruby , need to change this silly name.


This name Arabia.. represents where we are from and what we are.. its our identity.... if u believe that it sounds like nancy ajram or ruby.. i cant see wuts funny about that... if Arabia sounds like that.. then i forgot to laugh....

name of the band sounds like Nancy 3ajram or Ruby , need to change this silly name.

y should we use a western name when we are arab??

lets see u... give us a name... let us see wut u got... be creative..

We should look up for the lyrics xD I couldn't understand a thing, & I hope they don't succeed & come back to their origin as Arabs :color:

y should we use a western name when we are arab??

Errr, maybe because you're not representing Arabic music? Or even better, you're representing the west, so why use an Arabic name? :mmhmm:

It will be cool if you share the lyrics with us TiTo.

y should we use a western name when we are arab??

lets see u... give us a name... let us see wut u got... be creative..

you already used western letters =) , so why not using a western creative name.

all i know you should create a name according to your bands Dark Lyrics.

The name Arabia can also suit any arabian POP or Rap band doesnt it ? ? :p :P

I really like the logo! its nice! and i really wish all the best for this band you guys started off well keep it up im a big fan of metal and i would like to see your songs all around \m/!

not a big fan of black metal... but wish you guys the best.

not a big fan of black metal... but wish you guys the best.

glad to hear that =)

No Creativity, copying the western style of black metal instead of inventing one for their own. How can you get Arab fans by using a western style of black metal instead of something closer or a median of the two to their own cultural and traditional music.

+Salam.

I don't like how you guys go around and say copy copy copy.. that's metal.. and maybe that's how they like their music it doesn't mean they're copying "the westerns" music..
C'mon there are like 09859 metal bands and they mostly sound the same but you don't call them copy cats cause they're not omanis? That's not fair.. they wouldn't be playing and making music if they didn't like what they're doing..
You expect this new arabic metal genre comign from them? Then they might not be accepted by their fans easily..

I say they sound really good.. good for them !

lol what do you know about metal LOL , soilwork eh ?

lol what do you know about metal LOL , soilwork eh ?

You talking to me? o.O

loool i didnt like the songs :hyper:

lyrics pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase?

:XD: no one knew what they were saying while singing eh

Tito , it would be great if you wont share the lyrics.

hmm lucky tito i just noticed the picture you took with morgan , i would like to meet that person.

Why the explosive emotional reply!
For example, the black metal band Melechesh (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melechesh) knows how to combine two or more cultural music into one. I see in it some creativity, and you could tell where this band comes from or what influences them through just hearing the music without even reading the lyrics. While Arabia, nothing in it could tell me it's an Arabic band except the band name. You like the band or dislike it, I really don't care, my post was only a constructive criticism. By the way, I don't really listen to Black metal either.

Now playing Bel-5air - Jana Alhawa men Zanjibar. =|

Let me add , Melechesh and Orphaned Land both use Combination of Eastern influence + Metal , no wonder both bands are from Israel.

what nezitiC means here that the name Arabia doesnt represent what they are , so a7san they play 3ali Ba7ar or Abdullah Bal '7air.

Sorry, I know I was a bit emotional, but I just felt kindda sorry for them xD..Maybe it's just hard to combine two genres? I mean I don't think it's that easy.. or maybe they like it that way they like the genre they're playing.. not everyone has to I mean ofcourse there will be people who won't like it..

And I don't like the band I only heard that one song of them lol so yeah I'm just judging by the song I've heard..

Lol, shtuup how would you know what he meant :p .. alright it doesn't have to it's just a name.. there's nowhere in the cover of the album or whatever that says " we play arabic influenced music" xD.. so yeaah..

*command*
/ignore Black lolly

In conclusion
the name Arabia Doesnt represent the type of music they play

*command*

LOL ! actually in conclusion Name arabia doesn't have to "match" their music.. they're still arabic and maybe that's why they named themselves arabia :p..

Btw why you like act like you are a member or know them or something? :P ..

what if i told you that i know them in real life ?
and i already have the full EP before it was announced here in Sabla

Ashoofak !.. thanking people w 7allah :p
Btw quit the smiley face, really ugly lol..

:o Terrifying.

Yea, didn't understand a single thing asweel...but on a positive note i did like the guitar work at the beginning only!

these guys put Burzum to shame.

I'm interested to read the lyrics!

why are you soo interested in lyrics ? :S

Only lyrics would tell whether their work is serious or not. ;)
and you know that :D

why are you soo interested in lyrics ? :S

Why not be interested in the lyrics? If they're saying something in their songs then the listener would want to know what it is they wanted to express using their words.... Add me to the list of members who'd like to know what the lyrics are. :)

Okay, we've been waiting for long enough - where are the lyrics? :mmhmm:

Absolutely horrible. I couldn't understand a single word in the song 'desert of lost souls'.



LOOOOOOOOOOOOL omg so true i couldn't get it :XD: so much noise n screamin n shoutin wth!?!?
well good luck to them but this ain't my type of music >_<

Honestly Tito or Mr.Shabeeb , i told you that there is no point of sharing your band here on this forum because its obvious that non is into this type of music how ever ....

Greetings to all restless explorers :bored:

Some lyrics, included all harsh vocals on Black Pearl
and the track Desert of lost souls, were never released by Arabia because they felt they were too personal , yes indeed.

their words "lyrics " are idea, created and sung out with the breath when they moved through by great forces and ordinary speech no longer suffices.. in the creating process the lyrics and also tunes what they need will come out themselves ......

they act as an intermediary between all worlds and times when the words and tunes they want to use shoot up themselves they will get a new song. the meaning of the words and tunes would be something like "to feel emotion"..

Only lyrics would tell whether their work is serious or not. ;)
and you know that :D

and the track Desert of lost souls, were never released by Arabia because they felt they were too personal , yes indeed.

their words "lyrics " are idea, created and sung out with the breath when they moved through by great forces and ordinary speech no longer suffices.. in the creating process the lyrics and also tunes what they need will come out themselves ......

they act as an intermediary between all worlds and times when the words and tunes they want to use shoot up themselves they will get a new song. the meaning of the words and tunes would be something like "to feel emotion"..

this is our music man DOLS is our song man i dont know from where you get this information then who released dessert of lost souls you ? dont pretend you know every thing about us coz you dont so plz no lying thanks arabia

LoL dokum, why are you so defensive? :os.. DUUUUDE I think you guys should be nice and all lol.. I expect a better attitude from a member of a band that might get famous.. You're acting kind of weird..
You might lose fans like that..Um just an advice btw I don't need a whole fat as$ paragraph telling me how much you don't care about my opinion too :D

its true metal bands doesnt need fan like other commercial bands however ya
Mr.Shabeeb , i know about metal more than you can imagine = ) ,

your songs reminds me of old emperor , by listening to it deeply i can catch up the lyrics so yeah no need to share it.

what you said that dessert of lost souls was never released by arabia what does that mean explain bro why did you say that DOLS was never released by us y

i mean the words of the song you composed bro not the song it self "DOLS" , they aint released , the listener him self should explore the lyrics just exactly like am doing , thats why i didnt ask for the lyrics , i said iskit , because you was kinda rude and defensive for no good reason , anyways i will edit my post , for , and remove this iskit word.

man in oman only few will accept your band i mean maybe people like me and few others , am just telling you not to bother your self in this forum , because most think that metal is just another forum of spreading Satanism.


Salam man.

lol yeah I think if you want to be a successful rock band here in Oman you should be like Avril or something like that something al sahwa and sultan school teens would love lol..
I mean just as starters.. Then maybe rock in Oman can grow.. But I don't think Oman is ready for metal you know, I mean we still have people here who don't even know music has genres!
Ah well good luck to you guys.. and oh yer 30? Errr I thought you were younger lol from yer previous posts it sounded like some kindda teenage angst (no offense hehe)
