Pentagram
(Mumbai) - December 12, 2009 |
| |
PENTAGRAM
started a movement when they came together in
1994. They played original music, and played
it with a conviction and an effect never seen
before in India. Shape-shifting from alt-rock,
to electro-rock around 1999, they have been
pioneers in creating mindspace for a new urban
Indian sound. Pentagram is India's best-known
band, by far, and has been invited to major
global music festivals, such as Glastonbury
(they were the first Indian band to play there
in 2005), the Sundance Music Festival (they
headlined this festival in Tallinn, Estonia,
in 2004), and have just returned from a massive
showing at the One Movement Festival (Perth,
Australia, 2009). Having received rave reviews
in Perth, they have been invited back to do
a full tour of Australia in January-February
2010, another first for an Indian band. Pentagram
has put out three immensely successful albums,
the last of which was the 2007s "It's Ok,
It's All Good", which featured the smash
single "Voice". They are currently
writing their 4th album, due March 2010. Alongside
all this, Pentagram remain an unparallelled
live concert experience. Pentagram is a four-member
band consisting of Randolph on guitars, Vishal
on vocals, Papal on bass and Shiraz on drums.
