Aketh- Let Me Feel the Pain

Nice twist on the beauty & beast genre in an Arabic style complete with traditional elements/instruments. The violinist is great. Its only one kick-ass song though.

Yeah - I still like bands like this, especially when they are different like this band ...... 2 female singers, one playing violin. Recipe for mucho interest ....... let me get the obvious out of the way ..... no bass player in the video. Every now and then you see a bass being played, but you don't see his face .... I'm sure it's the guitarist doing that. Don't do that in your first video .... at least put someone in there who looks like they are playing .... don't fake it. Purist rant off. That said, I like this ...... I miss this style which seems to be non-existent.

Oddly enough, it appears these guys are from Canada! I assumed somehow they were from the Middle East, but hey.....

Very good stuff here. I love the use of the violin, and truly wish more bands would go that route.
