OBSIDIAN TEMPO - PRE-ORDER !

A drummer’s journey through Music, Drumming, surviving the biggest non-nuclear explosion, love, loss, and finding home far from home. Always lived his life between worlds, the rhythmic chaos of drumming on stage and the quiet ache of balancing his creative identity against the pressures of corporate survival. But on August 4th, 2020, everything changed. When the largest non-nuclear explosion in history tore through the heart of Beirut, Bachir survived but found himself physically and emotionally fractured, forced to confront his own resilience.

In this deeply personal memoir, Bachir explores the wounds and healing that followed, reflecting profoundly on love found and lost, friendships tested and strengthened, and the complexities of leaving his homeland in pursuit of stability abroad. He vividly recounts the raw and exhilarating highs of playing drums in influential Middle Eastern metal bands, contrasted with the challenging realities of managing clashing egos, creative

differences, and the often turbulent dynamics behind the scenes. Through these experiences, Bachir learns powerful lessons about brotherhood, artistic expression, and personal authenticity.
