The Profile

Formed in 1993 by Ashmedi, Melechesh is an Israeli extreme metal band known for blending black and thrash metal with Middle Eastern folk elements and ancient Mesopotamian/Sumerian themes. Their official debut, As Jerusalem Burns... Al'Intisar, was released in 1996.

Founder and band leader Ashmedi performs vocals and guitar. The band describes its style as 'mesopotamian metal' and incorporates Middle Eastern scales and occasional traditional instruments; reviewers note elements of black, thrash, death and folk across releases.

DeBaser hosts two appreciatively written reviews of Melechesh. Reviewers emphasize the band's self-styled 'mesopotamian metal' blending black/thrash with Middle Eastern folk and ancient themes. The 1996 debut and the later Emissaries record are highlighted as key releases.
