Shade is a rock band from Tunis that delivers a raw, powerful sound by blending multiple genres of rock, including alternative, stoner, and metal. Heavy, hypnotic soundscapes and explosive, dynamic shifts.

»The Exploitation Tapes« dives head-first into the grindhouse where horror, sci-fi and (s)exploitation melt together in a haze of sweat, fuzz and reel burn.

It’s loud, and proudly over the top ; a fever-dream soundtrack for a collection of films that never existed.

Every song tells a story from a midnight movie. The band doubled down on dirty riffs, cinematic moods and tongue-in-cheek storytelling.

»The Exploitation Tapes« plays like a mixtape rescued from the wreckage of a late-night double feature.

Each track channels a different kind of B-movie energy: factory revolts, haunted highways, killer dance shows, swamp sirens, and demonic beavers.

It’s campy, dangerous, and weirdly sexy.

Written by Shade.
Recorded at White Bench Studio.
Mixed by Paris Parasidis.
