简介：
阿富汗第一支重金属乐队——District Unknown，在恐惧动乱中的喀布尔成立，其被滚石定位“迷幻金属”风格的音乐，像阿司匹林一样缓解他们深受压迫的神经。\n乐队成员：\nPresent:\n1. Qasem Foushanji (Bass guitar\u002F growl and backing vocal) - 2008 to 2012\n2. Qais Shaghasi (Rhythm guitar) - 2008 to 2012\n3. Pedram Foushanji (Drum and Percussion) - 2008 to 2012\n4. Sasan Fanoon (Lead guitars\u002Fbacking vocals) - 2011 to 2012 \n5. Fa'ez Soltan (Lead vocals\u002F background keyboards\u002F Violin\u002FCello) - 2011 to 2012 \nFormerly:\n1. Lemar Saifullah (Lead guitars\u002F clean vocals)- 2008 to 2010\n2. Nasir Ahmad (Keyboards) - 2010\nDistrict Unknown曾在阿富汗首家摇滚学校接受过培训，学校取名为“声音中心”(Sound Central)，今年5月才刚创办。学校隐藏在一家叫做"Venue"的餐馆中。从某种意义上说，它映射着塔利班统治终结后阿富汗获得的自由——虽然有时这种自由只是暂时的。此前，塔利班对伊斯兰教的极端解读让电影、电视、音乐一度遭到禁止——当然，为宗教服务的作品除外，摇滚学校也一直在夹缝中生存。同样，摇滚音乐也在局限艰辛的动乱境况下势如破竹般偷偷生长着。\n这种社会现象直接决定了District Unknown的音乐主题——“我们的音乐中没有男欢女爱、爱情和心碎，那不是我们的生活。”吉他手Qais Shaghasi表示，“相反，它专注的是一个年仅15岁的少女被卖给50岁老头的故事，就因为她父亲需要钱——这是写给她们的音乐，也是我们最真实的生活。”\n在伊朗生活的时候，Pedram和Qasem得到了一张美国激流金属代表乐队Metallica的唱片。无疑，这张重金属唱片强劲的旋律同阿富汗传统的弦乐有着太多不同。兄弟俩立即被这急速并充满侵略性的声音征服。充斥着战争和暴力的童年生活，让他们很容易在这种风格的音乐中找到共鸣。“重型音乐让我感到舒适，因为身边的生活环境给了你太多负能量，”Pedram说，“这种音乐对我有一种向上的帮助——就好像冥想之于其他人一样。”\n无疑，战乱的生活使这帮阿富汗青年用摇滚乐筑起了新的希望——他们希望自己的音乐能给人启发，让他们奋起改变现状；他们更希望人们都能学会冒险——即使没有知道明天会怎样。\n官方网站：https:\u002F\u002Fdistrictunknown.com\u002F\n乐队官网英文原版介绍：\nDistrict unknown is considered Afghanistan's first metal band. Rolling Stone described the band as “leaders in Afghanistan’s first true counter-culture movement.”\nThe band was formed in 2008 when the 2 cousins-Lemar Saifullah and Qais Shaqasi, met the Foushanji brothers, Pedram and Qasem. It took some time for the band to establish who was playing what, but once everyone found their places, it was clear that the band had the raw chemistry. \n \nLike most bands District Unknown first covered heavy rock and metal songs. Their initial performances were raw and gritty, but the crowd gave them respect for "getting into it". In search of their musical identity they began to compose their first songs. Genres were introduced and disguarded like trash as they turn up the distortion to levels, no Afghan had ever attempted before. \nThrough 2009-2010, the band honed their skills playing underground gigs at youth centres, expats hangouts and the Afghan National Gallery. As they grew as musicians, so did their stage presence and it didn't take long for them to be seen as the leading band in the small but volatile Kabul music scene.\nWith Saifullah's leaving in early 2011, the band faced a new chapter of exploration with session musicians, and eventually ended up with a new style which was coined in the Rolling Stone Article as "Psychedelic Metal". District Unknown at the moment is trying to find support in order to record and publish their first EP called "Anatomy of a 24-hour life time".\nDistrict Unknown is inspired by bands like Opeth, Anathema, Tool, Pink Floyd, Porcupine tree, God speed you Black Emperor and B'jork.
