Al-Namrood
Saudi Arabian black metal band
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Al-Namrood (Arabic: النمرود) is a Saudi Arabian black metal band. The name means "Nimrod", a biblical figure and Babylonian king, which the group chose as a form of defiance against religion. The members are anonymous since their identification could lead to punishment of death from Saudi Arabian authorities.[1][2][3][4]
