Underground audio albums on Eid


This Eid-ul-Fitr along with new blends of fashion is releasing some exclusive audio albums from our local rock music industry. New albums like Asroy of Kronic and self-titled album of Elephant Road were already released on November 8.

While Kronic is totally a new comer, the group Elephant Road is comprised of expatriate musicians from USA with the likes of Imran Hussain, Mashuk Rahman and Joy Islam--the celebrated band members of RockStrata, Aces and In Dhaka.

Asroy is already heard of doing well. Songs like Ochena onubhuti, Nishiddho nagori and Shesh patay are catering to different tastes of music listeners.

Another mixed rock album Lokayoto will be a 16-band extravaganza featuring Aurthohin, Black, Artcell, Cryptic Fate, Aashor, Fulbanu's Revenge, dNA, Kral, Icons, Reborn, Stentorian, Scarecrow, Bivishika, Arbovirus, X Uranium and Striking. This is supposed to be another milestone mix like the two Agontuk volumes.

Bangladeshi musicians living abroad compiled yet another excellent riveting album from the group Kranti. This album is supposed to be an admirable Eid treat for the local music connoisseurs. Variable sound effects, excellent vocals and, most importantly, a new trend of composed music--this album is supposed to storm the scene.
