Avengers

Band Avengers was conceived when 26 year old ritvik, inspired by the American band ‘Rage Against The Machine’Started his band in 2004 September, to bridge the gap between entertainment and the activism. In a generation where ideologies like communism and social independence are fast losing grounds, it is heartening to see these youngsters leaving no stones unturned in their pursuit of justice, by raising their voice against the social evils.

In this age of remixes and pop albums, the idea of mixing social messages and music seems far-fetched. But this is exactly What Avengers has done. Casting off the tag of drug addicts and devil worshippers that come along with being a rock band. These Four youngsters have managed to amass a loyal band of followers.

Highly inspired by revolutionary concepts of basic freedom, Avengers has already played a few gigs spewing their brand of musical propaganda. The most recent of these gigs being Jumpstart 2005 at Pune, where the band headlined alongside stalwarts like Myndsnare and Metakiix.

Avengers is a band that not only realizes the potential for good original music, but also relishes the idea of using music to educate masses about the various injustices of society. Their fire-brand originals include tracks like Calling Life and Run.

And even though the band is relatively young, having played around six shows, the media have been quick to catch on the Avengers’ sound. The band has been interviewed and featured in a wide array of publications including DNA and The Free Press Journal.

Here’s a band that’s raring to go. And it won’t be long before it does that. Line Up: Ritvik – vocals Hoshnar – drums Pratyush – guitars Neelkanth - bass
