Formed in the early 2008 by the students of Xavier Academy, the band performed in the 5th KCM Inter college event and other programs in the college as well. But the band did not show up in the underground gigs until the IDES OF MARCH IV organized by ktmROCKS.

Earlier, the band used to play heavy metal numbers in the college programs until Bijil joined the band in 2009. The band then emerged into a black-metal band with touch of progressive metal music. The band members then decided to name their band as “Spells Of Prophecy” during the 5th KCM Competition. The band name itself signifies the type of music they play. The band is highly into composing songs with powerful guitar riffs and melodious guitar solos with dual vocals and odd timings. Their originals contain the theme related with the darker side of the life.

The band is now currently focusing on their original compositions. Their future resolution is to preferably continue the band till possible.

Spells of Prophecy is currently active and is planning to record their first single named “Asafal Chu Ma”

Black Sins Immortal 

Line up:
Kisor Tamang – guitars / vocals
Sumit – lead guitars
Sagar Tamang – bass
Rasu Raj Karnikar – drums

Formed: 2009
Genre: New age / Metalcore
Status: Active

Formed in 2009, the band was formerly named ‘Black September’ and had been performing in various local gigs, competitions since the early 2004. The band, however, had not been involved in the underground scene and was rather a dormant band until they finally started playing in metal gigs recently.

The band did not have any originals under their former name and did not even have a definite genre or stream to follow. Sumit came is after their first guitarist quit the band. The band then began composing originals and because of their love for aggressive guitar riffs, breakdowns, odd time signatures and dual vocals, the band headed towards the new age/metalcore approach of the music.

The band’s originals contain elements of both aggressive breakdowns filled metalcore along with the dark and mysterious themes of symphonic black metal and guthenburg metal.

Black Sins Immortal is currently active and is planning to record their first album.
