Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Sickman Inc. is the musical endevour of Chiranjeev Kolita, ex-guitar player of Question of Fate, Sweet Ashley (Guwahati, India) and Phase Damage (New Delhi). What started out as fooling around with equipments and softwares has,over time, taken the shape of the uploaded tracks. It is an effort to explore new depth in song structures, musical arrangements and tonal soundscapes. The passion and energy of rock/metal is very apparent in the songs nonetheless. As is the impact of electronica, chiefly in the use of weird unmusical phrases, samples and sophisticated soundscapes. But it is the approach towards songcraftmanship...the attempt at the freshest possible approach....not sounding dated....that is strictly sought to maintain.
