Devoid Biography:

In 2005 Arun Iyer (vocals/guitars) & Shubham Kumar (drums) who shared a love for thrash metal and Slayer decided to form Devoid after having played in a few local bands. They roped in childhood friend and lead guitarist Keshav Kumar and started writing songs. The band struggled for almost a year to find a bass guitarist before running into Frank Pawar, who initially wanted to audition Shubham for a band he played in but ended up auditioning for Devoid instead, and joined the band. In 2006, Devoid debuted at Campus Rock Idols, a national level battle of the bands, and won the Mumbai regional finals. The band also released their first single called ‘Obsolete’ on a compilation called We Are The Scene: Vol.1 and followed it up in 2007 with another single called ‘Poems of Death’ on the second volume of the same compilation. However later in 2007 the band changed their style and created a newer more brutal sound and released their third single called ‘Kali’ which was released on the All Indian Metal compilation. The band was constantly touring across the country and playing various festivals, and making an appearance at extreme metal fest Resurrection VII and VII, and also supported many bigger metal band like IIIrd Sovereign, MyndSnare, Demonic Resurrection etc. The band received great reviews and became known for their live performances and became one of the youngest bands to receive an endorsement from ESP Guitars & Basses through Furtados Music. August 2008 saw the release of a new single ‘Battle Cry’ which was released online as a free download.
