Melodic Death Metal is something I don’t spend a lot of time listening to, but it is not because I don’t like the genre.  It is merely because I don’t have the knowledge base or background, and I’ve relied on a few friends to turn me on to some of the better bands out there.  Mongolia’s Aravt is one of them.

The band blend metal riffs with some quieter elements of Mongolian traditional music.  It’s a natural-sounding blend, and worth exploring further.
