28 years old Heavy Metal guitar player and Composer SOHEIL OLFAT, was born in Tehran, Iran. He began his career as Rock and Heavy Metal musician in 2000, just as he bought his first electric guitar.

He would compose songs as he was testing himself in different Rock and Metal sub-genres. He got trained for about 2 years by Norik Misakian, truely the greatest electric guitar player in Iran, and also Farzad Fakhreddini in Tehran Conservatory.

He's inspired by Metallica, Therion, Slipknot, Iced Earth, Tool, Anathema, Disturbed, Rammstein and etc.

BABAK FARROKHI, the one who formed the band AZHIROCK was born in 1982 in Tehran. He began his career as a classic guitar player and then he found himself  a  Heavy Metal Lover !  

He was trained by Norik Misakian also. When Soheil was introduced to Azhirock by Norik, Babak and Ali (the former bass player) were working on bunch of  tracks for their first album-now it's entitled Sacred Inferno.

Babak sings both clean and Death..., English and Persian... and is still working on newer styles of singing. He's interested in Nu-Metal, Thrash Metal and Death Metal and is inspired by James Hetfield (Metallica), Corey Taylor (Slipknot) and Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden).

Now AZHIROCK is working on a big project... making a full package of Songs, Videos, Art works, Documentary DVD and more.
