Hello all,
I'm a hard core metal head and I love two bands that play roman themed music. I know not everyone are metal fans but I was just wanting to hear all of your thoughts and opinions on bands who play themed music based on historical cultures. I personally think its a great way to get my own generation as well as younger generation (and anyone who listens to it) to hear abit about history and get interested in it. Below are links to a few videos by two of the most popular roman themed bands, Ex Deo from Montreal Canada and Ade from Italy.
*Note I know the videos for ex deo are no where near accurate depictions and will probably make some of you die a little inside or at best puke in your mouth but hey at least its good music (well to metal heads)
Ex deo - Caligula

Ex deo - Romulus

Ade - Betrayer of Thrace

Ade - Sanguine Pluit in Arena

Just for kicks theres also an American death metal band Nile that plays ancient Egyptian themed music that has become hugely popular
Nile - Enduring The Eternal Molestation of Flame
