Belnejoum - Dark Tales Of Zarathustra

Belnejoum is a symphonic black metal band founded by Mohamed Baligh "Qaswad" and located in the United States. The band utilizes symphonic elements combined with oriental instruments (such as the ney) and traditional classical instruments like the violin and cello, but with a stronger flavor and a darker edition. This is combined with contributions from world-class musicians from Nile, Fleshgod Apocalypse, and Annihilator, as well as a multi-instrumental producer and a melismatic singer.. The band's output and sound were mixed and mastered by world-class producer Fredrik Nordstrom.
