With their 2024 debut Do Not Go To War With The Demons Of Manzadaran, London's Lowen established themselves as a bright new force in prog metal. Nina Saeidi's towering vocals mixed with crashing riffs, the band drawing on everything from Iranian folklore and extreme metal to create something vibrant and isntantly compelling.
Little surprise then, that Nina's personal music tastes would be just as broad. Sitting down with Hammer, the Lowen vocalist shared the 10 records that have shaped her life thus far, covering everything from Akercocke and System Of A Down to Iranian pop, Japanese prog rock and more.
