Algeria

In Algeria there is a small underground Metal scene existing – but there are no special places where you can find it. Besides, iIt's rather hard for the bands to play this kind of music. The first Algerian Metal album was obviously only released in 1999 by Litham (http://litham.fr.st)

For some gig dates and info about Algerian Metal check out this webzine: http://darkzine.free.fr/Eng/eng.htm - you´ll find links to about 20 Algerian Metal bands there and a lot more!

There´s also a good website online dealing with Metal bands from North Africa: Lelahel Metal, check it out here: http://www.lelahelmetal.com/ – there you also find some gig dates.
