So homicide what does the name mean ?
HOMICIDE, Represent Violence, Murder Etc In one word You Can Say The killing of One Person By Another.

Haha so can we know the lineup?
Yes HOMICIDE Is Istiaque on Vocals & Lyrics Butchered On Guitars & Vocals Anas on Bass Banxai On Drums

Having talks with other bands from Bangladesh we have known a bit more of the scene there can you give us a brief about your scene in bands perspective?
Alright, Scene Here in Bangladesh is Growing and Evolving. A lot of bands are really doing great job. Most of the bands now in UG scene here is Thrash Metal. You can say it's a Thrash Metal Era Now for our scene. We have few number of death metal bands. Most of the Death metal bands are either in pause or Split-up. This year Severe Dementia has gone for a break through this concert Bengal Regiment.

Before we move further ahead we would like to congratulate homicide for there tour to happen in 2014s first quarter one here in NEPAL and later in AUSTRALIA. How excited are you guys about the tour?
Haha Thanks A lot. We are quite excited about both of the tours. We are Working Hard on our full length. We will be playing tracks from our full length in tours. Currently we are done with two new tracks. We can't wait to go live with those. About Nepal Tour, Bands Like Severe Dementia And Abominable Carnivore Already toured there from Bangladesh, Now It's time to take this to a new level. And we will try our best. And we would like to thanks Nepal Deathfest for giving us the opportunity to represent Bangladesh this time, Trust Me We are going to rip off Nepal. About the Australian Tour, It will be happening this year mid we are actually waiting for the dates to be Announced. So yeah We Are working really hard on both of the tours and quite excited for the full length. Let's see what's come out of it.


Well we are excited to know about it. Any recent updates like gigs in December?
No Gigs In December, We cancelled most of the Gigs, we are really busy for our full length it has to be done by 2014 December. At this moment our country is going through a bad face because of the political condition. It will be alright after the election. So until January no gigs.

Jan 11 here in Nepal Death fest any message to Nepali fans?
They are going to Witness Bangladesh's One of the finest Death Metal acts. And We know what you guys want And Guess What? We will Bring Down "HADES" For you guys. Severe Breathing Until. . . The Annihilation Pit Begins.

For sure so can we know which band influence Homicide?
We mainly follow Nile, Cannibal corpse, psycroptic, Dying Fetus, Suffocation, Death, Morbid Angel, Fleshgod Apocalypse, Origin, The faceless, Napalm Death And Necrophagist.


As we all know scene is also evolving there like that of Nepal what obstacles does the band has to face there to put up a metal band which society considers pain in ear?
Haha, Yes It's really Tough For Us here. In our Point of view, As In HOMICIDE As a Tech death band. We are suffering a lot. There is no promoter And Investor for us. Having Limited Crowd, we are still doing it. Maybe for the love of music we have. Long hair, Black T-shirts with Brutal Art work Bother's people a lot here. But recently everything is changing, some of the Magazine And news papers are promoting Metal music here, Which is A good thing. You can have update of UG Gig's with line up and venue Details in Newspapers. We are organizing Quality gig's also, Organization like Metal Morgue and Primitive Invocation Is There Who's Bringing Quality bands from Abroad. The Bottom Line Is It's Rising Up Because When They Saw Extreme Metal Bands Are Releasing Their Materials From Abroad They are Showing Interest In that. Severe Dementia, orator, Homicide, Dissector, Enmachined, Morbidity,Nuclear Winter, Abominable Carnivore, Jahiliyyah, And More to Come. The Day Is Not Far we will call Some Major Extreme Metal Bands to Play Here in Bangladesh. Fingers Crossed. Haha

As far as we know the scene is evolving there as well and we are both aware of scene there in Bangladesh and here in Nepal. In your perspectives which are the two aspiring bands from there in Bangladesh and here in Nepal?
Yes We Are Concerned About the Scene. In Nepal for Me It Would Be Ugra Karma In the first Place And It's really Hard to Name only two bands Haha Not Fair Enough!!! Dying out flame, Wakk Thuu, BIDROHA Is in My List. And In Bangladesh Definitely Severe Dementia and Orator . Besides HOMICIDE hahaha. But We Have More Promising Bands. . The List Is Long As Fuck!!!!

Yeah we know about that personally i too like Severe dementia, G V, Jahiliyyah, dissector and many more. Haha keeping aside my personal taste we will like to ask does the things that we face in daily life affect your music?
Not At All


Death of immortals is one of my favourate of homicide and i really liked this part of the lyrics
'I saw the valor of those eyes
Death is illusion
Tearing flesh from the bone
Melting eyes, melting brain
Chortle of traitors
Death of Immortals
Spit on your betrayal Spit on your psyche
The ceremony of bloodbath
Death of Immortals'
Can you say us the theme of this song?
Thanks, For Your Kind Words.. The Ep "Annihilation Pit" Is Focused On Greek Mythology. You Can Say It's A sequel of Legion The IX. About A Spartan Warrior Who Stuck In Assault Pit. All About The A Legend Who Is Dead But Not For the History. We All Remember Those Legends Don't We ? Haha

Yes we do. Ok guys say us something about your new album which is on the production?
Alright, we are going to change recording studio this time for better sound. We have already composed two new tracks for our full length. At Nepal Death they will witness both of this tracks, besides We will come up with New Art work of our Demo release Called "HADES" Including Merchandise. And it's going to be more technical then the previous Releases. Hope you all will like them.

For sure brother. HOMICIDE was initiated in Dec 2008 five years how is this going. Can you guys share us your ups and down in band?
Thursday
Yes It's Been A while Doing Music. HOMICIDE Started In 2008 December With Eshtiaque, Leon And Anas. After That They Struggled A Lot For Drummer And A Good Guitarist. In late 2009 I joined the band As Drummer and after That Butchered. It's a great Fun Doing Music with Such People Who Loves the same Genre. And As Soon As We Found Butchered We Started Composing Our Materials. Seeking for Good Production House Was A bit Painful for Us. And We Had An Aim We Jammed A Lot For Getting Ourselves Ready For Gig. After When We Were Ready Science Then We All Are Having A Great Time. Our Track List Is Going High Day by Day. And We Are Busy all the time this is the Best Part. And we love doing this, Non Stop Release No Break; I guess that's How We Roll. . . . .


You guys are under an Australian label can you say something about them as well how did the offer came and stuffs?
Well, IRR is absolutely amazing. Basically, I mailed our mastered songs to the label we had Options and I found out IRR Is Better then others.Lindon and Steve, They are great people indeed. And they liked our tracks and agreed to sign Homicide immediately. And so far it’s been a great experience for me to work with them. Homicide has plans for gigs in Australia. We will Hit Australia Mid 2014.We also have plans for our full length album this year if things go well some other renowned Record label is interested for signing HOMICIDE I am not going to mention their name time will witness that. About the promotion, IRR Did a great job! It is beyond our expectations and we thank them for the immense support. Not only IRR, each and every band from IRR is helping us.

Thats for sure having a helpful management/label really inhances the morale of upcoming bands. How has it helped boosting morale of upcoming bands there in Bangladesh?
Definitely, As I stated before It's A real boost for Bangladeshi bands indeed. After signing the label we have got recolonization world wide through our label. And no matter how good music you do label matters a lot. it's quite difficult for a band to maintain music and management at the same time. having a record label is a relief i guess at lest for us. Previously bands here used to cover a lot. When Renowned bands here got sign with record labels many bands has started making their own materials, For me it's a major boost up of the scene here.

So tell us your dream fest line up and 10 albums one must have?
Ahhh !!! Our dream fest line up would be : Cannibal Corpse, Nile, Vital Remains, Hate Eternal, Origin, Hate, Suffocation, Necrophagist, Death, Morbid Angel, Deicide, Behemoth, Belphegor, Psycroptic, Dying Fetus, Quo Vadis, Bloodbath, Decapitated, Severe torture,The Faceless,fleshgod apocalypse. . . And Albums? Again Unfair Questions There are So many Albums . .
1.Altars of madness- Morbid Angel
2.Symbolic- Death
3.sound of perseverance- Death
4.Arise- Sepultura
5.Paramount Evil- Impiety
6.effigy of the forgotten- Suffocation
7.Tomb of the Mutilated- Cannibal Corpse
 8.Storm of the Light's Bane- Dissection
9.Stop At nothing- Dying Fetus
