Shokran is a progressive metal band that emerged from the depths of Krasnodar, Russia, in 2012. Their unique blend of technical prowess and Middle Eastern-flavored melodies quickly set them apart in the metal community. Named after the Arabic word for "thank you," the band consists of talented musicians who've shown a deep appreciation for intricate rhythms and captivating melodies, seamlessly integrating oriental motifs into the heavy framework of progressive and djent styles.
Their discography, which includes the evocative albums such as "Supreme Truth" and "Exodus," showcases their capacity not only for raw, technical skill but also for storytelling that transcends language barriers, often drawing inspiration from ancient Egyptian themes. The band has widened its reach by releasing both instrumental and full-vocal versions of their albums, catering to a diverse audience who appreciates the sheer instrumental complexity as much as the lyrical content. With tracks like "Ethereal" and the epic "Tefnut: The Greatest Drought," Shokran has cemented their reputation as innovative composers and performers in the modern metal scene, gaining them a dedicated following among fans who crave a mix of heavy riffs, atmospheric soundscapes, and a touch of the exotic.
