Biography

Born in November 2011, Underside is a Nepal-based metal band originated from The Third World Street of Kathmandu. With very aggressive, dark melodies, this new-age metal band writes and composes in a subtle way, making it an unexpected music. It was the month of December in 2010, when Bikant Shrestha – guitarist of Swiss-band Law of Silence met with Avishek K.C., front man of Lost Oblivion E.Quals, at a recording session in Silence Studios, just afore the first Silence Festival’10. The two showed each other their zeal for music, and thus collaborated as Underside. Mighty Vader, Textures, Enigmatic, Freak Chicken, Behemoth and Michael Angelo Batio are some of the great bands, Underside has opened for. This helped in building a strong profile of the band. Other memorable openings include Mighty Motorhead at Rock Oz’Arenes, and Mighty SikTh in Kathmandu’s Silence Festival (5th Edition).
