Band Biographies: Ricobolsay

Ethereal atmospheres mixed with raw and authentic vocals, Ricobolsay defines Iran’s alternative rock and metal landscape. Based in Tehran, and conceived in 2023 by Amir Mohammad Farimani, Ricobolsay is an emotional outlet for the Iranian alternative metal multi-instrumentalist. The project’s dedication to live instruments and the lack of samples in its music, make Ricobolsay stand out in today’s modern alternative rock/metal musical landscape.

 

Lyrically, Ricobolsay is inspired by personal experiences living in Iran as an underground artist, the concepts of love, and the perspective of living under the stars and sky. Overall, the project maintains an optimistic message, “Despite all of the ugliness in the world, it’s still beautiful.”
