Voice of Baceprot -- Muslim Girl Metal Band...not bad!

I just learned about these girls the other day and checked out some of their stuff and they actually aren’t bad. There’s only three of them: A girl who does decent lead guitar and not-as-decent vocals, a drummer who doesn’t have much of a kit, but does well with what she has, and the real star of the band: The bassist.

Check this girl out! I’m not the biggest music guy in the world, but I’m pretty sure that she’s a damn good bassist, and I don’t have to even qualify it with a “as a girl” or “for her age”.

Here’s another (better quality) video of one of their songs. They could use some refinement and a good manager, but I think there’s some pretty good potential there.

Fun! Thanks for sharing and yes, the bassist is great!

Really nice!

They are all very talented, but yeah, Widi Rahmawati is gonna be a monster! She’s already got fantastic technique; now we just have to see how good her ear is. Mike Watt was making some of his best music when he was just a few years older than Miss Rahmawati, so I hope for the best for her (and thus for us!).

The Guardian had an article about them couple of months ago.

NPR had one last week.

Did you know there is an Iranian girl rapper, who actually has some international fame?
