XECTOR, earlier known as 'Spitfire', was formed in 2006 by the founding member Suhas, who is currently the guitarist. He brought together a group of passionate, crazy, talented metal enthusiasts. In 2008, after months of brainstorming, a set of new melodic/heavy and technically-challenging songs were churned out which were played at these shows. However, two of the members had to part ways with the band later that year. After a three-year long hiatus, the guitarists Suhas and Ashutosh and the vocalist Charan found a new drummer – Arjun (ex-Nekrosys) and a bass player – Parik, and reformed the band as XECTOR. The five of them recomposed some of the older songs and a few new ones with the added experience and maturity gained over the years. Later in 2011, the band hit the studios to record their EP 'Beyond Oblivion'. The band is influenced by many other bands like Death, Devildriver, Nevermore, Cynic, Arsis, Nile, Quo Vadis, Soilwork, etc. The band has worked to make a unique sound which is a combination of groove, heaviness and technique. The main aim of the band is to lash out metal which begins purely from their energy for music.
