First band from India. Endurant.

Orphaned Land featuring Hansi Kürsch.

Alien Weaponry from New Zealand. Whisper.

Each of these songs, I suggest giving a read to some of those comments, checking out the bands further. They’re not the usual mess on Youtube. These bands are triumphing against so many odds and standing up for people in so many ways, inspiring the best in us. It’s metal to the core.
