You guys... Thank you. So much. I wasn’t expecting such an amazing reaction to the release of our first music video. I knew that possibly most of you would enjoy it, but I wasn’t expecting these amazing comments, posts and messages I’ve been reading for the past 48 hours. I can’t thank you guys enough. I’ve been so excited and happy about your reactions that I had absolutely no sleep last night. 😅 You have no idea how important that’s been to us. To know that you guys enjoyed it and want more. To read what more you guys want to see and hear in the future songs and videos. We are just a bunch of friends doing what we love, recording it, pouring everything we can into it and hoping that you’ll enjoy the result and join us in our artistic insanity. Thank you for being patient as we took forever to take this big step, and thank you for being there to inspire us as we grow, learn and share it with you. We love you guys. 🖤

I love this. I've been waiting for this kind of mixture for some time. Sorry.....for the lame comment. But I really like to express my happiness after hearing this

Please stay right here in the Middle Eastern metal/folk genre. You are incorporating what you know from your heritage and it shines through brilliantly. I have only heard Myrath before you. I would love to "experience" a show if yours. It's transcends the "normal" metal bands and tunes we hear. Please do what you do and people will follow. Not just people in one locale but all over the WORLD. We all want something new as our attention spans are so short. AKHETH is the new fix for all of us metal addicts and beyond. PEACE LOVE AND LIGHT!!

love it , the mix with the male voices and the female singer ,ohhh and the bass guitar

So we have an Iranian woman, a Taiwanese woman, and a bro from El Paso... and I don't know who the drummer is.. but this band literally came from around the world it seems lol

My goodness! Can't believe I haven't watched this before. This is haunting, sensual, dark, ethereal. It truly has a unique touch. And I love the unity between different ethnic background in this band. The power of Metal, the power of music. I'm in awe! The instruments, the vocals, outfits and the scenery, the whhhispeeers. Alright, I kid you not, you guys are a legend. You're creating something I've never heard before. As a *cough* peculiar *cough* person, I love your work not only because of its beauty but what I sense and feel behind it, you know, what's not seen on the camera such as emotions, tears, sweat, fatigue, pain, the fight of reaching your goals and dreams. That's why I love it even more. Your future is brighter, I say brighter because you're already shining. Please, remember this, there will be obstacles.. But DON'T give up. Take breaks if needed when it comes to self care but don't give up. You'll go far. Very far and will collab with other bands you never thought you would ;) Much love!♥

Just the sight I long to see when crossing my own internal deserts- I thank you.

Mahafsoun can dance AND sing like a goddess??? Holy shit

If y’all have ever watched Queen of the Damned, this song sounds like it’s straight outta that movie. I loved the songs in that movie and this just reminds me of them. Looooove this and I especially love that the violin was incorporated.

The little Persian poem part took me off guard omg!!

Sounds like Doom Metal with Angelic Vocals ... I dig it! The length and variation of the music makes for great repeat plays.

I know...we need a band that does desert rock, throat singing, screamo, metal, hot chicks, cool vibes, violins, and throw in a few careful whispers.... Oh shit...they already did it! Well done!

The camera work, the blend of instruments and different vocals, the visuals, everything is breath-taking! Adore it!

Hell yeahhhh from Croatia....🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷

This band is a rare gem! Long live Akheth!

I'm addicted to how eerie her voice sounds in this it's beautiful and the whispering in the beginning is a nice touch

Very Egyptian/East Indian feel to it. Very beautiful and refreshing. I'm really loving this sound. The 2 women have the most gorgeous hair that I've ever seen.

Whoa! Ol Wolf started with Kaos n got fresh music too! Hella wicked 😊😊🐺🐺🤘🤘🤘🤘

Wow....just..wow! 💜💜💜

It's great to see metal bands still debuting fairly recently

This song Duration is 10 minutes. But as I listen to the song, my awareness of the time is going off . Best of Luck Forough . Best wishes from Maldives.

8:45 The violinist gives an exquisite touch to this, so much needed in this type of music.

Great! Great! Great! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

This was a random find for me. I really dig the sound. The mix of middle eastern sounds, the haunting sounds of the violin, the angelic female vocals with the brutal growls from the guitarist. It has a steampunk feel with a more brutal sound. Love it!

I’m literally awe struck right now. There is so much talent and beauty in this band 🖤 can’t wait for you guys to put out more music!!

Go girl go....

As if I didn't have a crush on her before, now she is in an amazing metal band that sounds awesome and unique... Please, Mahafsoun. I am just a witless, poor man melting in your shadow. Have mercy! 😅 Seriously though, amazing song. I hope this band does well. Absolutely love it.

Finally, something new and fresh and unique sounding! No idea where the hell you all came from, but please, bring more!!!!

For a first single. I'm pretty amazed. I can't wait to see how your sound evolves. I love to hear Eastern sounds mixed into symphonic metal.

I love this so much. And it’s so nice to finally hear a female fronted band that doesn’t sound like 40 others. This actually sounds original and I’ve been DYING to find that for AGES 🖤

Well, I have just found another killer band that I'm going to want see live!!! This is amazing!!!

Daamn girl, what CAN'T you do?! 🖤🖤🖤

Really enchanting music! Really great sounding metal music from a long time ago.

this is what happens when you blend tiamat with my dying bride and orphaned land, awesomeness!

This popped up in my recommended and I am so glad I clicked on it. Was first blown away by the obvious beauty of the two ladies and then the music started and I was blown away once again. I can not wait to see and hear more of what you have instore for all of us.

Not only is the music great, but both the singer and violinist are both gorgous! Rock on🤘

Metal - uniting all religions and countries... Greetings from Bulgaria!

This is a kick ASS band..

WOW!

Yeaaaahhhhhh

Woah, how has this been under my radar for so long... I love it

This is just hot. The desert setting is hot, the music is fire, and these women are beyond blazingly hot!!

This song has replay value! I'm a professional musician of 15 years and I'm glad to see newcomer bands start so good. Some technical elements like fine-tuning need still need a bit of work, but it's ages ahead to my own funny first efforts, for example! The overall sound seems to bring back the gothic metal atmosphere of 90's but in its own original way. Really nice atmospheric touches with the violin and the "ethereal" background vocals. So way to go Mahafsoun & company and please make more!

The song to summon the Pharaohs from the sarcophagus.

Sirenia 😍

Yes!!

This is absolutely beautiful! Love the middle - eastern style combined with the metal, and the vocals are just 👌 😊

You're absolutely beautiful and the band sounds great. The instrument combination and variety is amazing. I'm very interested to see what else is accomplished from the band. Please make more music.

Very gooooddddd!!!!!!

Wow , that dude is amazing ! 3 instruments & growls :D

Like Myrath, Tool, and Asmegin had a baby. Love it!

Great to see your career taking these changes. From D.A. model to Belly dancing to fronting a Persian Gothic band. Awesome Fo! 😍

Now that's how you turn your musical influences into your own music. There are many interesting bits in this song. Awesome!

Guys that is just fucking beautiful!!! Holy shit

Mahafsoun, me encanta verte bailar, te he visto desde inicios de todo este camino ( sin querer hace años nos agregamos en Facebook y vi todo tu proceso y crecimiento) y sé cuanto te ha costado. Me ha gustado mucho tu video y quisiera ver más de Akheth, muchos saludos de un eterno viajero

Was expecting, no, wanting belly dance! That violin, those percusions are ideal for your hypnotic dance... And also would like more vocals, keep the good work, already a fan! Great bass and rythm guitar.

Waaaay ... Coooool!

AKHETH is like a lucid dream something between madness and genius ! The future is yours! Love from FRANCE 🇫🇷 🤘 ❤️

Holy fuck this is good! Fresh, good, talented, a total treat for the ear!

I'll be honest, I almost skipped this song because I wasn't digging the intro, but I gave it a chance to catch my interest because of the violin. Then the 8 string guitar came in. Worth it.

I adore thee......this awakens the vampyre within me................

Simply amazing!

Love them! They looks exactly like vampires, and their music is fabulous! Subscribed!

Holy fuck, this is not at all what I expected. Awesome stuff, I look forward to more from this band. The tone of that guitar is straight out of the 90's and is scratching an itch I've needed scratching for a long time.

40 days alone in the desert... and I knew a beauty serpent. 👍 from Mexico

fuaaaaark yeaha !

literally my first favorite 2019 songs besides Myrath.. I hope this bad goes successful

Wow... What an hypnotic video and a gorgeous song, I love it !

I'm in awe, i'm so glad that I discovered this randomly !! The choice of instrument and percussion, the vocals..... This is so good !

Waaaaaaaaaaaw , what a brutal vocal !!!!!
