"Iranian Live Rock" --- that is a new one.
Those in middle east are terrific traders and businessmen and have been taking advantage of us ignorant westerners for only about a 1000 years... 
Only reference I could find... Iranian rock (موسیقی راک ایرانی) is a form of rock music that is largely produced in Europe and Tehran's underground circles, and is rising to challenge "Tehrangeles pop", which has dominated the popular music genre of Iran for decades.
Iranian rock is almost entirely in Persian language. There are however musicians of Iranian descent both inside and outside Iran that produce their rock music in languages such as English or German. One example is Dario Amini whose hit "Just 4 today" was frequently heard on Iranian rock radiostations in 2006.[citation needed]
Iranian rock has its roots in American rock, British rock and German rock, but has its own distinctive elements mixed in to create a homegrown class of sounds and melodies, whether progressive, hard, or heavy metal.  _________ AG "125," AquaC EV 180, 30 gal sump, "SCWD", 80 lbs LR, CoralSeaLife "Moonlite" Hood, PFO 250W HQI Mini-Pendant (SPS HQI 14000k bulb)

I highly doubt it's truly Iranian, considering we've had a trade embargo with Iran for a long time _________ 24G JBJ Nano, 20# Live Sand, 40# Live Rock
