Old School Thrash attack from Kolkata – Mortar, heads down to Bangalore for the first time on 22nd of June to play in the inaugural Doom Over Bangalore. Playing alongside giants – Kryptos, Dying Embrace and Bevar Sea; here are some facts about the band you should all know before you catch them live:
- In their EP release gig, they could perform only one song and then the organisers ‘pulled the plug’.
- They got banned from a rehearsal pad because their drummer Sayak ripped apart the bass drum skin on the first day.
- Some of the new age kids of the scene first thought them to be a Gore Grind band.
- After every show, someone leaves the band. Which makes them a band with the most tumbling and unstable lineup.
- K.O.S.M.A. brought them all together. It was the spark that was needed in the stagnated Kolkata metal scene.
- Each gig of K.O.S.M.A. is named after the most underrated band – Anvil’s album names.
- They are the second band from Kolkata to be featured in the Motorhead Tribute India album. The other being Purgation
Their I Am The Sword cover for the Motorhead album was mixed and mastered by Jeff Fischer of Angry Jerk Productions
