Qara Dərviş - Yalan Həqiqətlər (2008)

00:53-01:17

Qara Dərviş (Black Dervish) is the first singer in the world to mix metal music with ghazal, an important poem genre of Middle East/South Asia originating in Arabic poetry. Ghazals were heavily influenced by the ideas of Sufism, a mystical trend is Islamic philosophy. Azerbaijani literature, especially in medieval centuries, became a home to the ghazal genre, and it still maintains its significance in the culture of my country. The importance of Sufist influence is notable in the stage name of the next Azerbaijani representative as well - Dervish refers to those choosing to live Sufist ascetic lifestyle: depriving themself of materalistic possessions, taking a vow of poverty and engaging in spiritual practices.

The first (demo) album of Qara Dərviş premiered in 2008 consists of sufi metal songs, where Yalan Həqiqətlər (False Truth) is one of my favourites. The singer was only 18 years old when releasing this song and this fact solely is very fascinating to me. My expectations are not that high with this song, but I decided to go with a song I love very much. I wish best of luck to every participant!

Although I really doubt this will receive the appreciation it deserves, I guess it's time to send it, having considered it multiple times in the past.
