Your musical influences
With varied styles and an enviable collection of experiences, it is only imperative that through their individuality a unique sound is born. While they have concentrated on a clear sound that is not spattered with unnecessary guitar distortions and more focused on the energy levels generated by clean and powerful riffs with groovy drumming, they have developed a wide repertoire of styles and themes from their self compositions to retro to jazz to classic to fusion and modern rock to even self-altered versions of old Hindi classics. This approach has made them a definite crowd puller, while retaining their individuality in the kind of sound they create.
