MaelstroM is a 3 piece death metal band from Chennai, India. Members:- Murari Vasudevan (guitars and vocals) Madhav Ravindranath (bass guitar and backing vocals) Geoffrey (drums) Aditya Chandrasekhar (sessions keyboards) Biography Maelstrom was formed as a result of like-minded people coming together to start playing true, uninhibited music. A symphony of aggression, Maelstrom's name is derived from the very chaos of the metal genres like black and death, along with classic, melodic thrash metal roots. Maelstrom is a medley of styles, and this conglomeration gives it a truly variable nature, from slow, acoustic intros to drumstick-shattering riffs with melodic symphonies leading to screeching guitars accompanied by a heavy pounding bassline and truly insane drumming. Novelty is a cherished virtue in the band and they enjoy playing its originals. The band’s music can be classified as a lethal combination of perhaps Dimmu Borgir, Iced Earth and Slayer with a little power metal thrown in. Recent Achievements -Qualification for Nagaland's National Hornbill Festival Dec 2007, an OC of the band spent a week at #1 on the Indian charts for metal on soundclick.com, and achieved a top position of #25 on the international charts for the death/black metal subgenre on the same website during Nov/Dec 2007. Equipment Used Ibanez guitars, Vatzilla bass guitars, Korg and Zoom effects, Marshall amplification, Mapex drums and Sonor cymbals.
