The rawness of this record coupled with the purity of their expression, not only in style, but in their hearts, is what makes this in fact one of the greatest metal songs of all time.
these guys have opened a new door on middle eastern metal.there's lots of other middle eastern metal bands but Acrassicauda are the best I've heard. \m/ horns from the Middle East!!!
Much love and respect to these guys. If they ever attain a US visa, they can come live at my house. Considering their roots, they are a miracle. I can see them opening for Lamb of God or Slayer.
i've seen the documentary and this guys are awesome, they have a real hard love for music to risk their lives to play what they like. Also, they are very talented.
I LOVED to see the Sepultura t-shirt in the picture! I'm Brazilian and used to think the heavy metal bands situation in my country was difficult. After seeing the "Heavy Metal in Bagdah" documentary, I started respect a lot this guys!!! Keep the great work!
Just watched the documentary "Heavy Metal in Baghdad" and it's very compelling. All these guys wanna do is play metal and rock...NICE to see they've come soo far. If you get the chance WATCH THE DOCUMENTARY!! Their story will beat out ANY other metal bands story of hardships. These guys are TRUE metal heads!! WTG guys, "Welcome" to the mainstream of metal!!
Excellent classic metal influenced tune! Fans of this band should also check out a feature documentary about them called Heavy Metal in Baghdad, released in 2007. I'm still hoping they make it big!
"You can DEFINATLY hear their 80's metal influence in the lead vocals and the rest of the band as well." @Carnage251- "TY for uploading them I think they will make it as long as they don't become commercialized to the point they lose their purity of music that they clearly have."
These guys are fucking awesome considering where they're from: culturally, socially etc. Someone out there in record producing land needs to keep these guys together and launch them proper. It will be a disgrace if they go unsigned and un-promoted. Acrassicauda - If any of you guys read this then Rock On Brothers! Big Respect.
I've seen and heard about your story. Keep on fighting, I wish you well! Nice to see you wear a Dimmu Borgir t-shirt on this picture, norwegien/swedish black metal!
Solid shit, man. I hope they get a full album going, because even if it's more Metallica/Maiden-ish stuff like this it'd be worth listening to in a sea of melodeath and -core.
very good new band, i prefer the song message from baghdad which is fantastic, i think their experimenting different type of influences they have, and i like the song stated above, heavier and one good solo!
Well, when you don't know the band's name its quite hard. The only thing i could remember about them was that they did a song called "song for saddam", so yeah...it was actually pretty hard to find them, especially as it took me a while to actually remember the exact name of that song.
I hope this song will be on their debut album. This is my favorite Acrassicauda song off the demo. If they remake this one as they did Message from Baghdad and Massacre(the ep versions are WAY better than the demo and HMIB versions!).
These guys are brimming with potential! I hope they can get in a better studio and stuff. Their sound is a bit rough now, but I still like them a lot better than a lot of bigger name bands...thank God they didn't go for the damn "cookie monster" vocals and at least are trying to sing!
whats really stupid is Itunes has the movie about these guys, but none of their music, cause i think it would sell alot, especially if they made this the free single of the week
These guys are amazing. When i saw Heavy Metal in Baghdad i fell in love with their music
This is absolutely the best song of Acrassicauda=)
The rawness of this record coupled with the purity of their expression, not only in style, but in their hearts, is what makes this in fact one of the greatest metal songs of all time.

the hidden gems of METAL!!!
One of the Best Metal songs ever made. Still listening to it after all these years. It's fucking awesome. \m/
these guys have opened a new door on middle eastern metal.there's lots of other middle eastern metal bands but Acrassicauda are the best I've heard.
\m/ horns from the Middle East!!!

Metal makes the world go 'round.

Keep up the good work, dudes
This sounds really good.
Monstro o som dos cara

Greetings from Sweden!
Solid shit, man. I hope they get a full album going, because even if it's more Metallica/Maiden-ish stuff like this it'd be worth listening to in a sea of melodeath and -core.
when the band is finally settled in and comfortable, i say make a movie on theyre ordeal of struggle!
These guys fucking lived thru shit, you would see on tv and heard thru slayer lyrics!! I t come to show the heavy metal spirit still lives!!
Wow they're pretty good!
these guys are true metal all the way
These guys are fucking awesome! This song is excellent...
Excellent
very good new band, i prefer the song message from baghdad which is fantastic, i think their experimenting different type of influences they have, and i like the song stated above, heavier and one good solo!

reminds me a bit of Iron Maiden...
Awesome.
fucking awesome, too bad you guys didnt play in Canada, more specific, Edmonton.. we love metal.
Hails from Iraq!
Divine !!!
I hope this song will be on their debut album. This is my favorite Acrassicauda song off the demo. If they remake this one as they did Message from Baghdad and Massacre(the ep versions are WAY better than the demo and HMIB versions!).
@MasterOfPuppets762 when i first heard the first intro riff and the yell....i thought the same thing
Respect!
This could be an Iron Maiden song,
Iron Maiden must cover this!
Just to show their respect!
2- this IS Iraqs very first metal band! so its living history!!
amazing, these guys are fuckin incredible. inspiring.
Reminds me of classic Iron Maiden and that's a good thing
Havent heard their new stuff. But old stuff has HEAVY Iron Maiden influences. I hope it hasent changed much >.> This is good.
Yeah, it does have that British metal sound to it.
I just saw part of their documentary. These guys fucking rock!!!
These guys are brimming with potential!
I hope they can get in a better studio and stuff. Their sound is a bit rough now, but I still like them a lot better than a lot of bigger name bands...thank God they didn't go for the damn "cookie monster" vocals and at least are trying to sing!
they should re master this song... its 1 of the ones i would like to hear in better quality it would fkn kick ass
@ConsidrMEnemo Slipknot has producers and stellar equipment these guys recorded this on a budget that Im not sure you can even consider shoe string.
When I heard this song... I just remembered Bruce Dickinson and Iron Maiden.... (with no comparison what so ever)
you guys rule!
i knew Metal would save the middle east years before this!
this is the best fucking documenatry of them i feel so bad for them they're are the most fucking cool guys ever
Reminds me a little of Juarez, by GasHead - look it up!!
A cause without a rebel is worse than a rebel without a cause.
wonder if those guys will ever knew someone in puerto rico is listening their songs! lol well i do!
One of those riffs reminds me of Where Eagles Dare by Iron Maiden.
I'm pretty impressed that there actually is an Iraqi metal band... There not exactly bad either.
can someone please upload message from baghdad please, great song!
this is pretty coo
I hear tell that Dave Mustaine coined the term "cookie monster vocals"
I do hope this band makes it big.
cred to you all, suport from sweden.
tHESe gUYs fKING ROCK!!
this is the only song i could say i like from them
id buy it
whats really stupid is Itunes has the movie about these guys, but none of their music, cause i think it would sell alot, especially if they made this the free single of the week
