Going by the titles of the songs, I believe it is in Arabic and not English. That right?

Yeah, sorry, thought that was obvious.

Saudis, eh? I shall give this a whirl later. I made a thread in the Alt. forum about Saudi grind bands a while back but even I can't remember what was in it.

Yeah all the song titles are in Arabic (im fluent in Arabic), but they are in traditional Arabic words (called Fus'ha Arabic) as opposed to regular every day dialetic in Saudi Arabia and other parts of the Arab world today.

For example the song titles :

Atba’a Al-Namrood - translates to "The followers of Nimrod".

Ebadt al-bashar - "Eliminating (eradicating) humanity"

Fe Zafrat Almout - "At the moment of death"

Youm Tusa’ar Awaheem - "the day illusions are drawn" (or something along those lines).

Al-Namrood is mentioned in a similar sense (although the exact details are different) in the Quran and the Bible (Nimrod) as a king that opposed Abraham. The actual word "al-namrood" does not seem to mean "non-believer" and is just the name of the king (I have checked this in several reliable Arabic dictonaries).

I havent listened to the lyrics yet, but I heard they are in Arabic too so ill check them out soon and if anyone is interested ill try and translate them (hopefully the vocalist sings clearly!).

I think they were using 'al-namrood' as a title, referencing Nimrod's heresy. And heh, good luck with the vocalist...

Interesting info. Yeah, it would be good to have the lyrics translated or maybe get a link to the translated lyrics. The link in the review for the record label is Shaytan productions. If I am correct, Shaytan = Devil ?

There was a message on the band's myspace blog indicating that they were thinking of posting translations, so keep checking back I guess. And isn't Shaytan mainly Satan? I think it can mean 'devil' as well.
