Unearthing the Metal Underground in Kuwait
Each week in Unearthing the Metal Underground we take a look at lesser known bands that are keeping metal alive and kicking in their respective regions and hometowns. This week, we introduce you to three bands from Kuwait: a country that has seen wars fought on its own home ground and in neighboring regions, as well as becoming a home to families trying to get away from conflicts. It has also become a small hub of high quality heavy metal, in both terms of production and originality.
Voice of the Soul
While Voice of the Soul may be better known as a song from the purveyors of death metal, Death, it also happens to be a progressive/melodic death metal band from Kuwait. With the typical line up of influences such as At the Gates, Carcass, Arch Enemy and the aforementioned Death, Voice of the Soul has set about creating a sound that is both intensely heavy and technical, but melodic enough to create memorable and satisfying songs.
Formed in 2007 by three like-minded metal heads who wanted to cover some of their favorite songs, Voice of the Soul eventually started to write and record it's own material, which brought about the release of their its EP, “Winds of Apprehension," in 2009. It included 3 original songs and a cover of Death’s “Empty Words." With this first EP, Voice of the Soul took a very straight forward melodic death metal approach. The release of the second EP, “Eyes of Deceit," in 2010 saw the band take a more progressive approach to it's sound.
The band’s song “Farewell to Hope” was featured on the Metality Compilation alongside Norther and The Empire Shall Fall. The same song was also voted as the top metal track of 2010 by the readers of Rockability Magazine.
While the band members are currently all based in separate countries due to school, Voice of the Soul is working on a full length album. You can download the “Eyes of Deceit” EP here.

Depth Issues Studio Updates
Gaser, guitarist/vocalist of Kuwait metal band Depth, has posted the following studio update:
"So yesterday I recorded the 2 missing solos, now all music is officially finished. Today I recorded the vocals for songs 2 and 3, leaving 1, 4 and 6, yes you'll notice there's no 5. Wow, song 3 has truly developed into the soundtrack to your worst nightmare, and if you don't believe me, just wait and see, it wont be long!"
Gaser adds more recently, "OK! Today we've called it a rap! I finished vocals for songs 1 and 4 and recorded my parts for song 6, now ladies and gentlemen, the more you harass Sarj, the faster we can all hear the finished product. Get to it!"
