Demonstealer launches new metal band ‘HELLWIND’ and releases demo track ‘Taste of Metal’

Good news for all Old School Heavy Metal lovers – Sahil ‘Demonstealer’ Makhija has launched a new metal band “Hellwind“, where he will be handling drum duties. The band has straightaway released their debut demo track ”Taste of Metal”. You can listen to the track and go through the lyrics on their SoundCloud Page or ReverbNation Page which has already got more than 1000 plays in less than 24 hours.

Taken from their Facebook Page, “In the immortal words of AC/DC- ‘Rock n’ roll ain’t noise pollution, rock n’ roll ain’t gonna die’. United by their love for wailing guitars, pounding drums, leather and the spirit of the 80s, Hellwind is a motley crew of musicians from Mumbai who love to rock n’ roll. Hailing from various veteran bands around Mumbai (Demonic Resurrection, Workshop, Spook, Reptilian Death, Funk The System, Colossus, Apollonian Quest, Zephyr), the members of the band have trained under the tutelage of the various Gods of Rock and take immense pleasure in showcasing their wizardry before you. So expect the theatrics of KISS, the hooks of Def Leppard, the melodies of Poison, the groove of Van Halen and the banshee wails of Judas Priest. Moreover, since the band is on an eternal quest to turn everything they touch into a riffalicious masterpiece, expect their own spin on popular commercial hits as well.”
