Biography

Raising hell from Dhaka, the heart and capital of Bangladesh, Severe Dementia is a death metal band with technical influences and a keen lyrical focus towards ancient and historical events which created major impact on certain nations and human race. Since the formation in January 2004, Severe Dementia has been a band that embodies absolute brutality, blistering speed, technical proficiency and the utmost in quality extreme musicianship. In a country such as Bangladesh, where the people were previously unaware of devastating drum blasts, monstrous guttural growls, ravaging screams and pure aggression rendered guitar lines, Severe Dementia have become a major act to change that all over the years. Upon its formation, the band unleashed its own true form of death metal with utter ferocity that knew no bounds. Soon after, landing numerous successful gigs the band received great feedback from the local underground scene and the appreciation from the massive hordes of head bangers. Thus Severe Dementia has become the mightiest force that ever represented extreme metal from Bangladesh.

In February 2007, Severe Dementia signed a deal with Demonstealer Records (India) to release an EP in a split album "Rise of the Eastern Blood" with Demonic Resurrection (India), Dusk (Pakistan) and Helmksey (Singapore). The conceptual EP is entitled as "Epitaph of Plassey" with 5 continuous songs based on the historical Battle of Plassey between the British East India Company and the Bengal in 1757. Following that, Severe Dementia undertook a tour in India in April 2007 as being the first ever underground band from Bangladesh to play overseas. The opening of the album took place at the last gig of the tour on April 8 2007, at Razzberry Rhinoceros, Mumbai. The band played two gigs at Mumbai and Pune as the headliner unleashing on the unsuspecting crowd a torrent of unbelievably brutal, pulverizing and cataclysmic death metal. The band set the standards high and with the release of "Epitaph of Plassey", showed the metal hordes worldwide that metal was well alive and kicking even from a country like Bangladesh.

After a long break and suffering a few minor changes in the line-up, the revamped Severe Dementia resurfaced to take back their rightful dominion in the underground. The band has been working heavily on the writing and composing of new materials as well as the pre-production of its second official release, which would be the band's first full length album since, "Epitaph of Plassey (EP, 2007)". Although the name of the album had not been titled yet, the band announced that the album concept and lyrical themes would be based upon ancient Sumerian mythology. The approximate release date will be announced once the band completes the pre-production.
