    The Kominas are a Pakistani-American Desi punk rock band from Lexington, Massachusetts. The band currently includes Basim Usmani (bass), Imran Ali Malik (guitar), Hassan Ali Malik (guitar) and Abdullah Saeed (drums).They are Muslim Punk from Pakistani.
        











   The first Kominas' song ever released was "Rumi was a Homo (But Wahhaj Is a Fag)", by the website Muslim Wake Up! in response to then recent homophobic comments made by the Imam Siraj Wahhaj. In 2007, The Kominas pressed 2000 copies their first album, Wild Nights in Guantanamo Bay, which is now out of print.
In 2010, The Kominas released a 7-song E.P. entitled Escape to Blackout Beach, and a documentary that follows the early history of the band entitled Taqwacore: The Birth of Punk Islam was released. A third 10-track self-titled album was released on Christmas day as a free download in 2011.
