Motör Militia
Motör Militia (also known as Motor Militia) is a Bahraini heavy metal band. They are regarded as one of the first heavy metal bands in the Persian Gulf and Middle East area to record and release a full-length album of original material on an independent label. In 2003, Motör Militia built a following based on word of mouth promotion in their local and neighboring Middle Eastern music communities. At the same time, members of the group began interacting with many other bands in their local heavy metal scene, organizing DIY heavy metal and hard rock concerts at a pace faster than previously realized. This, in addition to the band's decision to play sets consisting almost entirely of original material (and subsequently recording and releasing it), influenced many local groups to do the same.

The Sound Of Violence (album)
''The Sound of Violence'' is Bahraini thrash metal band Motör Militia's debut album, and is the first album of its genre to be released by a Middle Eastern group on an independent label. Influenced stylistically by 1980s thrash metal, particularly Slayer and Metallica, the album was recorded in Salmabad, Bahrain—an industrial district more akin to forging steel than to recording studios. Regardless, the band recorded eight songs between June and July 2004. Taking the DIY ethic to heart, the band put together fifty CD packages by hand—with their record company providing the cases and other components. They were all subsequently sold at ''Friendly Violent Fun 3'', another DIY concert organized by members of the band, as well as other bands in the Bahraini heavy metal music community.

Bass Guitar
The bass guitar, electric bass or simply bass (), is the lowest-pitched member of the string family. It is a plucked string instrument similar in appearance and construction to an electric or an acoustic guitar, but with a longer neck and scale length, and typically four to six strings or courses. Since the mid-1950s, the bass guitar has largely replaced the double bass in popular music. The four-string bass is usually tuned the same as the double bass, which corresponds to pitches one octave lower than the four lowest-pitched strings of a guitar (typically E, A, D, and G). It is played primarily with the fingers or thumb, or with a pick. To be heard at normal performance volumes, electric basses require external amplification. Terminology According to the ''New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians'', an "Electric bass guitar sa Guitar, usually with four heavy strings tuned E1'–A1'–D2–G2."
