Discography
Arashk's first album, "Abrahadabra", is an instrumental blend, representing an impressive debut of instrumental, compositionally strong, electric guitar driven progressive rock music [ [http://progressive.homestead.com/IRAN.html p,progressive rock and hard/heavy rock from Iran ] ] and is now released.
The band's instrumental arrangement is firstly formed by standard rock conventions but hiring digital
synthesizers has established the ground toward new explorations especially inpromo songs of the album, "Sovereign".Their third album, "Ustuqus-al-Uss" is cross-genre in nature and contains standard symphonic music, Electronic beats, standard jazz drum set, purely oriental rhythms and instruments, standard metal instrumentation, odd rhythms, etc.
It is expected that the band releases its fourth album, "Shout", in the middle of 2008 [ [http://www.arashkband.com/band.htm ArashkBand.com - Band ] ] .
