The first edition of Trend Slaughter Fest featuring some of Asia's best underground bands was a roaring success and its no surprise that the organizers of the show decided to give the fans another blow of extreme underground madness.
i am super thrilled to be covering the event as the self declared "official photographer" but enough of that and here's a brief description of the bands that are gonna be sharing the stage on that day.
DJINN AND MISKATONIC: a vocalist, a bass player and a drummer! thats it! 3 guys! , no guitars, no keys no nonsense!!!! the most weird and surprising band to hit the subcontinent with their blend of slow doomy drone music.... am seriously looking forward to this band coz they absolutely kill on stage..proud to say they are from Bangalore
check out their music on sound cloud and add them on Facebook
DWESHA: is a Bangalore based old school death metal band whose music reminds one of early Bolt Thrower. The difference here is they sing in Kannada! another first perhaps in the country, a death metal vernacular band....snap your heads to their music on Reverbnation and check them out on Facebook
GORIFIED: this band needs no introduction, extreme death/grind band from Bangalore ...Moshing mayhem guaranteed once those growls and riffs are thrown at u at rabid intensity....
CAUCHEMAR: are a Canadian band featuring one really talented Annick Giroux whose morbid fascination of serving up a tasty meal while thrashing in the kitchen resulted in her writing a book " HELLBENT FOR COOKING : THE HEAVY METAL COOKBOOK. .... she wont be cooking here , but her band will be seriously "dishing out" some excellent music!!! Stomach Churning or otherwise...
visit their MySpace page and Facebook pages
DYING EMBRACE: again, this band needs no introduction unless u are a metalcore loving dick head who is oblivious to underground music.... formed in 1991, even before u were born (i am sure), DE will be dishing out some really nasty primitive doom and with rumors of a new song which might debut at TSF II here's another reason not to miss this event....i wonder what other tricks they have up their sleeve?
visit their Sound Click page and add his as a friend on Facebook
and finally....
ABIGAIL : the craziest beer loving, women bonking thrashers in the history of Metal! Abigail have been around since 1989 and have 82 releases and are still considered to be an underground act...This performance is definitely gonna be colossal , and will open the flood gates for more underground acts to come play in India (read Bangalore) . For the very first time in the history on music played in India, we have a Japanese Thrash metal band playing here, its an honor to have them here.
