#hassak

I've mostly posted Persian music so far, so today I'm branching out. There's been this trend to update old musical traditions with modern production techniques and sensibilities, and it's produced some folk music that goes so hard it almost qualifies as metal. Central Asians especially have been going hard the past decade. This is the Kazakh band Hassak.

It’s acoustic, but trust me. It’s folk metal alright.

Biz seni uyanıştan önce de bilirdik..

everything about this is so epic

you’d think there’d be american bands doing the central asian steppe thing, especially since the american steppe is very well represented in foreign countries’ ideas of what america looks like (especially vs. the east coast, which ime doesn’t come up at all)... but as far as i know, there aren’t! what’s up with that. why are we dropping the ball so hard

I don’t know anything about this band but this video & music is amazing, can someone help me and tell me from where they are?

ok, this is my new favourite thing
