Metal around the World: Tunisia | Myrath | 'Believer'

[@freyjana]

Myrath is amazing ☺️ They really should get more attention. Zaher is a great vocalist

[@helenahey]

What an excellent song! Never heard this band before. The chorus especially is hella catchy xD

[@ThomFoolery1]

Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, it's been in my head ever since. 😄

[@thetrickster4899]

Those oriental feeling parts just give me goosebumps. Well-executed strings in metal is always a treat to listen to.

[@marovLT8314]

Myrath "Born To Survive" (Live)

[@ShadowhispersBand]

Great band. Seen them live a bunch of times. Actually they were the last band I saw before covid fucked up everything. Very nice people too. Thx for the reaction. They deserve the attention. Btw. Zaher also sings on an Ayreon album and the new Epica album 😉

[@ThomFoolery1]

That's awesome! I get a good vibe from them. That's awesome that he's sang for those bands! I'll have to find that too. Cheers 🙂

[@noposition]

Also my last band live before covid. Good, very good memories

[@ShadowhispersBand]

@@noposition with Eleine as support?

[@noposition]

@@ShadowhispersBand That is correct. February 2020

[@ShadowhispersBand]

@@noposition same here. In Saarbrücken on a Monday.

[@waelmargheni]

The excitement when I saw a band from my country featured. You should definitely check more of them. And if you want to check more 'strictly Tunisian' metal, I highly recommend Nawather. They just released their second album and they are female fronted. P.S: the "y" in Myrath is pronounced "e" and their name means "legacy'.

[@ThomFoolery1]

Thank you Wael! I figured I was saying it wrong haha.

[@stevehill9167]

Welcome to the wonderful world of Myrath, they are such an under appreciated band. The video for Believer is the first in a trilogy with a whole continuing storyline, the others being Dance and No Holding Back. I get such strong Assassins Creed and Prince Of Persia vibes from this one. Their recent album Shehili is amazing . 🤘🏻🙂

[@l.k.9392]

Please continue the journey around the world sometime. That would be great. Thanks for these reactions.

[@ThomFoolery1]

Thanks! Glad you liked it.

[@marsbel1846]

It is a 3 episode story...this is the first one ! There is going to be a fourth one aswell.They are AMAZING in live, incredible performers !!!!

[@dimitrisnikoloulis4071]

Zaher Zorgati is powerful vocalist , Morgan Bertheh at drums epic, guitar and solo line by Malek Ben Arbia, beautiful keyboards by Kevin Codfert , Anis Juini at bass guitar , that band is fire. Ye song is an epic journey . From their album Legacy.

[@Aurinkohirvi]

This metal around the world is a good idea. I like when (metal) bands add some of their cultural sounds and themes to the music. And Myrath also does. My headset is failing, I can't listen to music now, but I recall the song: very good! Great to get bands from Northern Africa to metal scne!

[@Noup309729]

This band, live, is amazing. If they play Open Air at least. They do have a belly dancer, other dancers with choreographies also using fire, fire effects, illusionism... 🤩🤩🤩

[@hollowmade]

I just heard this song and band today for the first time while scrolling through some clips from Sweden Rock Festival from last week. This is pure gold!

[@nanach6276]

Last band I saw live before lockdown. Next will be Flogging Molly this summer. Ah time flies...

[@ThomFoolery1]

I saw Flogging Molly a few years ago! They're very fun, have a good time! 🤘

[@nanach6276]

@@ThomFoolery1 Thanks!

[@klaymor73]

So we need a Tunisian band to get the real prince of Persia video. Cool.

[@Vierran]

This video is the first part in a continuous story told in their MVs. The next ones are ”Dance” and ”No Holding Back.”

[@zanetpieterse7933]

Thanks so much for finally doing my request for Myrath. Apparently they crowdfunded the video production... Excellent music, Dance Official Music Video next please as it's the next part of this video trilogy. Best wishes from Namibia 🤘🏻🇳🇦🤘🏻

[@ThomFoolery1]

Hey Zanet! Thanks for your patience. I wish I got them sooner. Looking forward to hearing more. Take care. 😀🤘

[@bazkeen]

Well, that was different. Really enjoyed that.

[@omarg23]

Myrath is amazing... love from Algeria

[@SquatchViking]

Hadn't heard this song from them before! Thanks, kind sir; if you ever want to revisit them later on, listen to their track Dance!

[@BREAKocean]

Love seeing those ocean blue eyes soaking in the oasis that is myrath

[@Kilian600]

I have seen them live a couple years ago, mind-blowing good, they even had an actual belly-dancing girl on their show, Kahina Spirit.

[@mouhammedmahmoud5168]

it's the first time I see this channel and first time I get to know such an amazing thing belongs to me as a Tunisian 😊😉 the voice is really touching and kinda gallop too thanks for your reaction man I do appreciate creativity in everything and I found it that awsome!! of course a subscribe and thumbs up really deserved!!

[@ThomFoolery1]

Thank you for your kind words! 😊

[@graycloud9313]

nice reaction there! 🤟🏼

[@majdimnasri8274]

wooow Myrath is amazing

[@wayneyeadon9680]

If you've not done them yet then I'll look forward to seeing you do The Hu from Mongolia!

[@juanboglew.2597]

Excellent

[@pencilhb13]

Ahh so glad you checked out Myrath! They're awesome, Zaher has such a nice voice. My favourite of theirs is No Holding back :) Thanks for introducing more people to them!

[@Vyrexis]

Really cool and unique band! I discovered them when they were warming up for Beast in Black in 2019 and they were quite nice! Good music and even some humour! :D

[@LerpsaUkkola]

Played this to my wife and she said this is something that could be in eurovision. Speaking of it is coming up and finland is sending a metal band...again but this is a great one Blind channel-dark side, and i think you should check it out. While you are at it check out 2007 winner of the comprtition lordi with hard rock hallelujah, they have crazy monster outfits and the song is awesome

[@ThomFoolery1]

That's cool! I can see why she'd say that. I'm looking forward to Eurovision too. Lordi are legendary! 🤘

[@CatspawAdventures]

Holy hell, Myrath is one of the last bands I expected to see reacted to. I discovered them a handful of years ago and tend to think of them as being somewhat comparable to a Middle Eastern Dream Theater. Great stuff!

[@jr_lifts]

If anything, listen to their hidden album, “Hope” which kickstarted it all 🤘🏼- only found on YT and CD copy😢

[@CatspawAdventures]

[@ThomFoolery1]

Haha cheers! I'm so glad I discovered them! I'll try and check out more soon. 🙂

[@luciaalexandracachulofreire]

THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@adrianailiescu9087]

try Persona, also from Tunisia. Song Blinded !you will be surprised

[@nanach6276]

For another "special" band check out Tierramystica. It's like Aztec or Mayan folk metal.

[@leilagomez2273]

I LOVE Myrath, you should react to the sequence story of this music video with the songs "Dance" and "No Turning Back"

[@mozsab]

This was brand new to me. Really interesting. Gonna have to check out more

[@KL-qy4ye]

Another great find. Thanks.

[@piia253]

Love this band so much! ❤

Such a great song and such a great reaction.. Please Chek out Pineapple thief - alone at sea

[@stephsteph4574]

That was so cool! Definately will go on my playlist!

[@ThomFoolery1]

Woohoo! 😀🎉

[@piia253]

You should also listen to their song Dance.

[@cheeseandonions9558]

can someone give us few other recommendations for Oriental/Arab heavy metal?

[@jejuraska]

Loved it....

[@ronnyseffinga7950]

glad you discovered desert metalband Myrath, but like f.i. Sabaton and Nightwish they are even better live !!

[@haddaddhaker9891]

You should react to Dance and No Holding Back from Myrath you are going to enjoy more

[@vopy48]

IF you (all) haven't heard And seen a bit similar grreat music-vids from Israeli band Orphaned Land, I highly recommend checking out specially their videos of All Is One and Like Orpheus, really Enjoyable them too like definitely is this killer song by Myrath indeed in deep! ;-) :-) Cheers all the way from Finland (not-so-)uncl Vo' y.m. 1968 :-D

[@00Jess_M]

Love this song. This video reminded me that I wanted to check out more of their music. Speaking of groups which deserve more attention: I would love to see you react to Beyond the Black. Don't know if it fits for this series (can't think of metal with traditional influences, but growing up with grandparents who listen to German "Volksmusik", I don't think anybody wants that kind of genre mix 😨), but everybody just knows Rammstein and there is more. The only bands that kinda remind me at least of Schlager are more folk rock than metal. Don't know if it's because of the German lyrics or the melodies. Beyond The Black are a German symphonic metal band that should be known more. A great live performance would be "Hallelujah", but they have an acoustic version of one of their songs, in which they used an accordion (Beyond The Black - Night Will Fade (ORIGINS Live Version feat. Ben Metzner)). Does that count as traditional? 🤔 I slightly prefer the original though. It has Gregorian chants in it. Big fan of that. But the recent online acoustic show they did that version for was amazing and I hope they release a live album. 🤞

[@ThomFoolery1]

Thanks Jess! You've definitely done a good job of selling them to me! I'll check them out. Danke! 😃🤘

[@switchboardrevelry4275]

Now you have to watch the whole saga.

[@maroccovers3815]

Can you make Wraithly heroes by Torpedo review 🤘

[@erwinamesz7642]

You should do Al-namrood, THE Sand Metal band from Saudi Arabia!

[@cheeseandonions9558]

"Barra barra" by Rachid Taha isn't exactly metal but OMG, it's so good

[@ADarkScatheredSoul]

No air guitar smoke guitar 🤘

[@rolandmertens1604]

Ok, ok... That was not half bad 🤘 Had to check this one twice, second time without watching 'cause that video kept me away from actually listening to the music somewhat. Really nice production indeed! Reminded me a little bit of the movie 'Prince of Persia' 🤔 But yeah, blazing desert metal... I hear you! Great reaction as always buddy, keep it up! 🎼🎶🔊🤘

[@ThomFoolery1]

Ha! Yes it's quite a crazy and distracting video. Such a fun song to relisten to. Cheers buddy!

[@tom.grelet]

I saw them live and can say they're half french and Tunisian. The were speaking French without any accent

[@ShadowhispersBand]

Great live band and very nice people too. Seen them a bunch of times in Germany, France and the Netherlands. And in Belgium if I’m not mistaken. They never disappointed live

[@waelmargheni]

The reason for that is because French is the second language Tunisia. We learn it 'naturally' at a young age and most of our classes are in French. Plus Tunisian itself contains a lot of French words.

[@swistako4482]

If you want some Polish metal you should check: mgla (insane drummer), KAT (legendary band) or nocny kochanek (funny lyrics and amazing skills) also highly recommend you to check Painkiller cover by Polish Metal Alliance, this is by far best judas cover I ever heard. Greentings from Poland, keep good work!

[@ThomFoolery1]

Thanks very much! Cool suggestions! 😀

[@wayneyeadon9680]

best polish band I know are Riverside!

[@swistako4482]

@@wayneyeadon9680 yup, they are good and well known International, more than in Poland i'd say. You should really check this Painkiller cover by Polish Metal Alliance (some of best polish rock/metal bands collab)

[@RyanofLordran]

I have a suggestion for your metal around the world series from my country Lebanon. This song is originally by an artist named Majida Al Roumi, it's about the city Beirut. It's not a metal song, but after the Beirut blast on the 4th of August last year, this band released a metal cover of the song and I think you should definitely check it out. The band had to take down the cover from their official page because the original artist considered it a disgrace to sing such an iconic song in metal, but it was uploaded by another channel and it's there for you to check out. Here is Ya Beirut by Kimaera: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJSVgKB-pZqJb7c

[@ThomFoolery1]

Thank you for the suggestion Rayan! This sounds interesting.

[@RyanofLordran]
