The Unquiet Grave Episode 39: Separate the Sky From the Earth (Heavy Metal of North Africa)

Sun, Feb 6, 2022

Tonight on the Unquiet Grave (9-11pm on WRIR 97.3 FM Richmond Independent Radio) it’s heavy metal of North Africa! This episode explores the extreme metal of Libya, Tunisia, Egypt, Morocco, and Algeria. A few highlights: the incredible split by Pain Emotion and Kharab (both from Morocco) and the strange Algiers black metal scene featuring Barbaros, Azar, and The Kult ov Satanåchiîa.
Thanks for listening, and tune in next week for a War Metal ep!
