In the past couple years I've made efforts to discover more bands on the other side of the globe and the list of amazing artists from the Middle East keep on stacking. The latest group I've unearthed is the Indian progressive rock/metal act Gaia. As of right now, it seems that the projects features a rotating lineup.
For their first single, "Nebulous," the performers included Abhiruk Patowary (guitars/bass: Acid Pit), Siddharth Nair (vocals: Haiku-Like Imagination, Tangents, ex-Tiffin Box), David Chunn (vocals: Vallite), Nathan Bulla (drums: Intervals, Auras), and a guest solo by Ro Han (I Built The Sky). It should also be noted that the music video was shot, edited, and directed by Lukas Magyar (Veil of Maya) You can click here to check out that video.
While the aforementioned song is full with heavy metalcore grooves and leads, the band reveals a softer and more intimate side on their latest single "New Reality." In this track, we have Patowary return creating the music with Sahil Khurana (vocals: The Chronic Legion). The video was created by Yuvraj Bhatnagar (Lost Domain, As Skies Divide). If you're into acts like Tesseract or Skyharbor, this one might be up your alley.
