We got the name from a song we've been influnced to, called ( Wasted Lands ) for Suidakra

Yeah we did play live for four times untill now. They all been in Saudi Arabia between Jeddah and Dammam.

It has changed alot actually, People are more aware of the metal music because of the wide spread of the mp3s now.

Yeah sure.

Its all started in the year 2003 , when Ahmed Khojah , Emad Ashore, Sultan Alghamdi , Rayan Bahabri and Amer Tashkandi , created a thrash metal band called ( Crimson Iris ) they played for couple of months and did only one song called ( Away From Life ) , after while they disbanded because some personal reasons , for most of the band members . After three months they gathered for a new idea of creating a new band along with Ali ,Maarawi , Ahmed Khojah , Sultan Alghamdi, and Hani Nowillati they done with only 2 songs but unfortunately they broke up because they cannot decide which kind of metal they want to go with , that was in Summer of 2003, In the begging of 2004 , Ahmed , Hani Nowillati , Mohammed Shata , Emad Mujalled and Ayman Alghamdi formed a new band called ( S.M.F) according to metal yahoo group created by Ahmed himself. They started to play a slow metal music sounds like metal of 80s and they got one song called ( Broken Promises ) , but later on most of the members got busy with their studies so the the band didnt stay that long . In 2005 Ahmed and Ayman gathered for one simple session to play some guitars for fun , but some how this simple session turned to be a great idea of creating a new band called ( Wasted Land ) they figured out that both of them playing and admiring melodic death music ( like Dark Tranquility and Inflames ) so they called Emad Mujalled and Sultan Alghamdi to join the band , Emad as a vocal and a drummer and Sultan as a bassist then after recording the first song ( Death in war) they found out the song Is doing very well among the metal head crowds and been asked to perform live couple of times , so the band seriously started to search for a permanent drummer to play live with them. They met Majed Shaarani whose played only one show and designed the band's logo, but For some reasons Majed had to leave the band and replaced him wih Tameem as a permanent drummer.
