Turkish heavy metal band “Pentagram” has been established in 1987. Pentagram has created its style by inspiring 1970s Progressive Rock and Heavy Metal movement of the 1980s and also strongly felt in the Anatolian music, in time.
After 2009, Pentagram lead vocalist Murat Ilkan has announced that he is MS (Multipl Skleroz) patient, and he left the band. In 2012 Pentagram started to work with new vocalist; but my opinion, it was never the same.
Translation of this song in English:
Fire, soil have been air, rain; all had given life to you.
Your heart, soul, mind have been guiding to you.
Tell me your story in a single lifetime of your adventure.
What it means for you? What’s in your soul?
Don’t be afraid anything! Neither death, nor life!
Everything you see in this world is all in one, all in the essence!
Your ancestors have been presaged; they’ve told you, writing books.
Imam, priest have been guide, but they conveyed the knowledge with full of mistakes
In today’s world all in the same.
Jesus, Moses, Mohammed, Buddha have told what they knew.
Mankind looks for himself. Earth rotates day by day.
If you pass away today, you have unfinished business!
Don’t be afraid anything! Neither death nor life!
Everything you see in this world is all in one, all in the essence!
Don’t be afraid anything! Neither hell, nor devil!
Everything you see in this world is all in one, all in the essence!

The last one, “Uzun ince bir yoldayim” by Asık Veysel, in English : “I am on a long, thin road” is old famous Turkish folk song adaptation. And it has got good meaning lyrics. It tells the life and death as follows:
“I am on a long, thin road; I am going in day and night. I don’t know what my situation is.
The moment when I came to this world, I walked in the same time. In the inn with two-doors, I am going to day and night.
I walk on even sleep. I’m looking for a reason to get up. I see all leavers, in day and night.
Forty-nine years in these roads, in the coomb, desert, on the mountain. I am in a foreign lands, I am going day and night.
If thinking deeply, it’s seen far away, when you saw. Actually this road is one minute the amount of its. I am going day and night.
Veysel is surprised to this case.
Sometimes he cries, sometimes he laughs.
I am going day and night for reaching to the actual range.”
Great song. Takes me back to my younger days when I had really long hair, perfecting for head banging 🙂

The first concert I ever saw was Bon Jovi, which is kind of embarrassing. But I must admit, I had a great time. I used to have a lot of fun going to concerts, live shows are an incredible experience.

There is a band called pentagram in india too.. its not a metal band.. more of a alternative rock band..
The lyrics of “I am on a long, thin road” were good and true.
