Gene comprised Matt James (drummer), Kevin Miles (bassist), Steve Mason (guitarist) and Martin Rossiter (vocalist, keyboards). 2) GENE a Syrian Neoprogressive Rock Band, one of the best acts in the Syrian rock scene, they started under the name ZODIAC playing progressive rock songs for bands such as ( Karmakanic ) later on they changed their name to GENE and decide to use Arabic lyrics with the progressive music creating a very unique style of their own, proving again how flexible Arabic language can be. they are: |Maen rajab: Guitars|Omar harb: Bass guitar ( The Hourglass - Anas & Friends )|Shadi Ali: Vocals ( Guest in Anas & Friends )|Sahel Zen Eldien: Drums|Hazem Al-Ani: Piano & Keyboards|Anas Abd al-Moumen: Guitars ( Anas & Friends ) GENE released their Debut self titled album in August 2008 . |
