Description:

HERESY is a rising underground band in the metal scene of BD. The band was initially formed by two friends Shafayat and Samiul. Afterwards Tishat, a close friend of them joined the band as the rhythm guitarist. They were in search of a good drummer to start practicing. After quite a long search, they found Shahrukh through a friend. Shahrukh did a number of jamming sessions with them. After all this, they got a chance to prove themselves in their first show. Shahrukh couldn't continue playing with the band due to personal reasons. HERESY also needed a standalone vocalist for covering more complicated songs which needed full bass playing concentration. Hence a friend of Shafayat named Tauseef stepped in as the main vocalist. Few days later, Heaven joined as the drummer. HERESY is committed to present some real head banging good music to all the metalheads and headbangers out there.
