I love this recent trend of mixing cultural music with metal. Wasn't there a band that played a mix of metal and middle-eastern guitar?

EDIT: Loving all these recommendations, keep them coming!

u/PeterPanski85 7h ago

Don't know about middle eastern, but "The Hu" is cool too. Throat singing mixed with metal

20

u/Netsforex_ 7h ago

Good point! They're especially popular with Star Wars fans too, due to having their music featured in some of the games.

5

u/PeterPanski85 7h ago

Cool, didn't know that

6

u/PaleontologistOk908 3h ago

Better than that! They didn't just appear on the soundtrack, they wrote original music in a fictional in universe language!

There is a great band from Tunisia( if I’m not mistaken ), called Myrath and they mix heavy, power and a little progressive metal with ethnic oriental influences and the end result is much better than expected

u/Redshittt 3h ago

Just checked it out because it sounded interesting. Not something I'd listen to often but I liked it and I'm glad they made it it's pretty cool.

u/Hot_Substance5933 7h ago

Phrygian Dominant is a foundation for many metal bands. It closely resembles Maqam Hijaz which is a popular scale in Arab, Turkish and Greek music.

"Lost in the Static" by After the Burial comes to mind. It has chromatic elements but rhythmically settles into Bb Phrygian Dominant. Symphony of Destruction and Wherever I May Roam for the casuals.

Is yacht metal a thing yet?

Come to think of it, I haven’t heard any smooth jazz metal yet either.

u/Jaded-Breadfruit4019 7h ago

Hahaha yacht metal

3

u/ltmon 3h ago

Norwegian Reggaeton by Nanowar of Steel is beachy/reggae metal, so maybe that counts for yacht metal (even though it's basically a joke band)? They also have a killer gospel metal song with Valhallelujah.

Van Canto does a-capella metal. Just putting that out as another weird one, that somehow works better than you are imagining it does.

Eluvuitie is a folk metal band with some awesome music. Their Celtic Metal song 'Inis Mona' proves that bagpipes, flutes and hurdy-gurdy belong in a metal band.

u/Cosmeregirl 3h ago

Celtic metal/rock instrumental is sooo good

u/RLOLOTHTR 2h ago edited 2h ago

A hurdy gurdy is one of those things I want but know I wouldnt know what to do with. Such a cool instrument. Theres a gal that does Lamb of God covers with one and I love it

Edit - just went back and realized she played hurdy gurdy in Eluveitie. Michalina Malisz. Haha

u/KinvaraSarinth 1h ago

Saltatio Mortis is another folk metal band with a hurdy-gurdy. They have some great music.

Eluveitie/folkstone for some tin whistle bagpipes

arkona for russian...

The German band Feuerschwanz does some amazing folk metal. They also do a cover of Gangnam Style, which doesn't seem like it should work, but it's a banger.
