The first-ever public metal show held in Saudi Arabia - watch

The only Saudi Arabian grind-core band Creative Waste last month played a show at the Bohemian Art Cafe in Khobar, the first public metal show in Saudi Arabia. Band's frontman Fawaz Al Shawaf told Metal Injection that "the ones who organized the show are actually basically newcomers and young. They didn’t even know what grindcore or death metal was. So they weren’t into extreme music, but they asked us and I thought the idea was so crazy that I accepted it because it’s a part of the change”. The conservative kingdom has sent musicians to jail in the past just for playing, but the Oct. 25 gig, to the surprise of many, brought no legal troubles to the bands, venue or audience.
