Amaseffer

Amaseffer is an Israeli progressive metal band from Tel Aviv. It was formed in 2004 by drummer and percussionist Erez Yohanan and guitarist Yuval Kramer. A year later, a second guitarist, Hanan Avramovich, joined them, and the band obtained its structure. It is also then that the band got its name Amaseffer - from the Hebrew Am Ha'Sefer (עם הספר) - The People of the Holy Book; a name in the Old Testament for the Israelites and later for the Jewish people. The band's genre of music is considered progressive metal, but it contains oriental metal.
