The backstory is set in an earlier release called Believer. Cool thing about that: They actually got fans to crowdfund the video for Believer so they could make it as awesome as they wanted. I think Myrath is a really cool band because of the mix of the oriental and western influences. And those oriental scales and rhythms really blend well with metal. But also because of how they've dared to try out new things, crowdfunding and having fans spread their music.

I abused my ears in the past few years and I kinda sense a mild hearing loss which gives me paranoia and anxiety while listening to music that I cannot hear it as good as before.

Love this band. Glad to see Mike reacting to them. Also, yes, Tunisian (North African) and Middle Eastern music are generally the same. There are small differences that allow you to distinguish it from other styles, but not enough to really call it a different sound. However, some people choose to refer to North African music as Oriental to differentiate it from Middle Eastern, as the culture behind the 2 regions is vastly different, despite the plethora of similarities they share.

Those oriental drums are called Darbuka or Derbuka depending on the country. There are 3 main "models": Tunisian, Egyptian, and Turkish. You can also find them in some Eastern European folklore like Greece or the Balkans, as they were part of the Ottoman (Turkish) Empire at some point of their history.

Dude myrath is oriental metal plus a few touches of prog. They sure started out as a prog band but their latest albums lean more towards the Arabic side with violins and other percussions. Also if you notice, even the drums have been tuned to give an oriental feel. And one more thing, when you haven't seen the video for their song "Believer" you don't expect this video to make any sense for you. So don't jump to conclusions. It's not easy to fuse Arabic tunes with metal and these guys are doing it wonderfully.

I think Myrath is a great band, they have a lot of variations over their albums (heavy, soft, fast, calm, etc.), and their style is quite unique (i.e. they are easy to recognize). Personally I like their first album "Tales of the Sands". Each song is very different compared to each other and most of them varies with different styles and changes in their beats, making each one of them unique and recognizable. As for "real prog", some of their songs can absolutely be described as progressive, but not all. I agree that they have more in common with symphonic metal, but prog is also fitting to their style along with their north-African, Tunisian flavor to it.

Also, very nice and respond to the fan on their different social media, really nice from them too ^^ Also, like you've said, the sound of the bass is a little under everything, but it's really seems to be like this on the complete album, really strange feeling (Gonna try to ask next time i saw them if it's done on purpose ^^)
