This October, Indian Metal heavyweights  Undying Inc will grace the kingdom of the Vikings and birthplace of Black Metal with their brand of Extreme Metal, playing three shows across the country with post hardcore / metal mentalists Torch. The band will make its main stage appearance at Trondheim’s iconic metal club BLAEST, during the ongoing India themed festival of NTNU’s 2011 celebrations, supplemented by a gig in Roros and one more in Trondheim. Besides networking, making new fans and being inspired; the band wants to focus on their performance and put forth what Metal from India is truly about.

This is what the band had to say; “We are extremely psyched to play in a country that holds such a sacrosanct and highly revered position in the world of Metal. Totally psyched about playing these gigs with our tour mates Torch, who are a killer act with addictive heavy music! Also, we go to Norway via the grace of Blaest and the tireless efforts of Rikskonsertene and EMS/Rock Street Journal; both of whom have always supported the exchange between Norwegian and Indian Metal, exposing us to some awesome music. Therefore the onus is on us now; to represent the best India has to offer. To showcase yet another aspect that one shouldn’t always expect any sitars with guitars when dealing with India, but the raging chaos of this country, of a sound tempered by the constant pandemonium of surviving the odds. You will know it when you hear it.”

The tour comes full circle with club dates where Torch will be playing gigs with Undying Inc and other leading bands on Indian soil to complete the cultural exchange of Heavy Metal between the two countries.
