It seems rock & roll has scaled great heights in Dhaka city in recent years. Popular "modern" bands like Artcell, Black, Cryptic Fate, Arbovirus, Nemesis etc have made their mark in the music industry. But most recently, the final six bands of DRockStars --Bortoman, Dour, Radioactive, Eclipse, Power Surge, Dreek have also gained considerable popularity in the music industry. Four months of intense competition, heartbreak and simply mind-blowing performances have finally paid off but now the competition has ended. Bands like Power Surge, the ultimate winner, who have delivered splendid performances (portraying their metal core and thrash metal influence), Radioactive, who are most popular amongst the judges as they concentrate on their old school rock & roll and hard rock ballad's influence, and the other bands-- Dreek, Dour and Bortoman also gained considerable respect. But now after all said and done, this competition has brought about a revolution in the music scene. We expect to see more intense DRockStar competitions in the years to come.
