Bio:
Turbulence is a Lebanese Prog Metal band from Metn, Lebanon, founded by guitarist Alain Ibrahim and keyboardist Mood Yassin in 2013.They pulled off 4 live shows titled “Dream Theater Night” where they gave unparalleled performances of huge Dream Theater repertoires with some of the best local musicians, propelling them into local fame and establishing them as one of the best in their field. Alain and Mood then joined forces with singer Omar El Hajj to write and produce their debut album “Disequilibrium”, which was released to highly positive reviews in 2015, dubbing them as one of the most proficient and promising Prog bands in the Middle East.In a region not famous for this genre of music, Turbulence emerged and left a mark with performances that rival the best prog acts in the world, completing their line-up with Sayed Gereige (Drums) and Anthony Atwe (Bass) before going on to write and produce their sophomore album “Frontal”, which portrays the band’s ability to combine compelling musical storytelling with modern sounds and production.Turbulence wrapped up the production for “Frontal” in early 2020. And after a 3-year “hiatus”, the band has now signed with Frontiers Records and is back with a new line-up and a fresh sound, to be released in 2021.

Turbulence is a progressive rock/metal band from Lebanon founded in 2013 by two extremely gifted composers: guitarist Alain Ibrahim and keyboardist Mood Yassin. Omar El Hage (vocals), Sayed Gereige (drums) and Anthony Atwe (bass) round off the band's line-up. Coming from a region not exactly famous for prog music, Turbulence has emerged and is ready to compete on a world stage.The band is preparing to unleash its sophomore album, "Frontal", a concept album which showcases Turbulence's ability to combine compelling musical storytelling with modern sounds and production."Early in our musical careers, finding a label to call home seemed almost impossible, let alone it being a huge worldwide label. For that and a couple of other reasons, we are very pleased and proud to announce that we have signed with Frontiers. We grew up listening to a lot of the bands on its roster, which makes this all the more exciting. We're certain that this is the start of a very prolific musical relationship and that Frontiers will do an amazing job to help us bring our prog to the world", says the band.Turbulence started when Mood sent Alain a sample of a song that really piqued his interest. The meeting of the two men felt like an inevitable event and the two prog loving songwriters, both among the most skilled and proficient musicians and instrumentalists in their country, teamed up with the rest of the line-up to complete their shared vision. Turbulence's goal is to bring their unique style of progressive music from the Middle East to the world."Our first release with Frontiers will be our second album, titled 'Frontal', on which we were able to incorporate compelling musical storytelling with a modern sound that fuses a bit of everything. From rhythmic illusions, polyrhythms, dark melodies, a melting pot of crunching synths, soaring vocals, complex drumming and a never ending stream of riff carnage that fuses jazz virtuosity with prog metal tension, all the way to ambient soundscapes and textures layered with memorable and heart piercing clean vocals; it's an emotional rollercoaster of a journey filled with surprises and details on every corner", adds the band.This band will be a stunning revelation for all prog metal lovers, so be sure to start following them now and get ready for "Frontal" in March 2021.
