CRYPTIC FATE : DHAKA SESSIONS | Season 05 | Episode 01

DHAKA SESSIONS is super excited to kick off Season 5 with the eclectic sounds of Cryptic Fate.
Cryptic Fate has been rocking audiences in Bangladesh since 1993. Initially started as a heavy metal band, the band gradually evolved into their progressive metal unique style. Drawing inspiration from bands like Metallica and Iron Maiden, Cryptic Fate soon became one of the leading rock bands within Metal fans in Bangladesh with their fast riffs and heavy vocals.
In 1995 Cryptic Fate released their debut album 'Ends are Forever' - the first English language metal album recorded by a Bangladeshi band. The band subsequently released 3 more albums - 'শ্রেষ্ঠ', 'দানব', and 'নয় মাস'.
Luckily, Arafat Kazi - drummer from Watson Brothers was available during the DHAKA SESSIONS recording, and joined in for performing one of the most popular songs by Watson Brothers - রঙ.
Shakib Chowdhury (Vocals, Bass) who has always proclaimed that "Metal music cannot be done without distortion" put together an amazing acoustic set just for DHAKA SESSIONS. The result is pure acoustic ecstasy! The band had a great time performing, leaving us completely enthralled, wanting more. Rock on forever Cryptic Fate! - Lori Simpson
