Blaakyum

Describing themselves as “the oldest active Lebanese heavy metal band”, Blaakyum has managed, in its 17 years history, to make a name for itself.

Started as a regular classic Heavy and Doom Metal band, Blaakyum turned to Thrash two years after its foundation. Later on they got taken by the progressive metal wave that struck the end of the 20th century. After it’s reunion, Blaakyum was a mix of everything from Heavy Metal, Thrash Metal, Progressive Metal, some breakdown elements taken from Metal Core, as well as a lot of Hard Rock elements, all mixed with an oriental flavour.

The band released it’s debut album “Lord Of The Night” in 2012. It is supporting the release of the album by touring throughout the Middle-East, Asia and Europe.
