Demonic Resurrection announce new guitarist

Indian metal veterans Demonic Resurrection, who recently parted ways with long time guitarist Daniel Kenneth Rego have announced his replacement. Axeman Nishith Hegde, known for his work with Albatross and Reptilian Death has now joined the band. An official announcement was made via the bands facebook page along with a clip of Nishith playing solos from the bands last album ‘The Return To Darkness’ that released in 2010 on Candlelight Records.

At the farewell concert held at Blue Frog on 19th Jan, Hegde joined the band mid-way through their set on stage for the rest of the set trading off solos with Daniel while Demonstealer took over just vocals.

Demonic Resurrection are currently putting the final touches on their 4th full-length album due for release sometime in 2014. No details about the album or it’s release date have been revealed yet.

Hellwind- New old school metal supergroup from Mumbai

The nods to the old school seems to have been on a rise in India thanks to new releases by Albatross and Kryptos, but now another great quintet has ‘risen from the ashes’ of past bands such as Zephyr and Apollonian Quest, bringing you Hellwind. The band’s line-up is as follows (with innovative duties spelled out):

Akshay Deodhar – The Vocal Viscount
Rajarshi Bhattacharyya – The Samurai of Shred
Kiron Kumar – The Creature of Riff Lagoon
Aditya Kadam- Super Commando Groove
Demonstealer – The Demon on Drums

That’s right, this dream line-up is all set to unleash their wizardry upon you. Take a listen to their demo or read more about the band on their Facebook page, and in their own words:

“So grab those tight clothes, put on your make-up, grab a few beers and head down for our show. Because if you look hard enough, the 80s never died…the decade only lay dormant somewhere deep within you. And now, the beast begins to rise again! Rock or die!”
