The very idea of The Pit came up in 2009 when the Kolkata metal circuit was in its nascent stage and the bands like In Human, Chronic Xorn, Yonsample, DIOTB and other people who loved the genre came together to form a metal community where people would pour in to dive into the spirit of music. It was a time when restaurants and bars never allowed metal bands to perform live and gigs didn't take place as frequently as it happens now. The Pit started as a self sponsored event and the first five volumes took place in Tapan Theatre, the first three volumes being free gigs. People came together in huge numbers to support the artists and the genre as a whole. The theatre was bursting at the seams with a crowd of more than 400 metallers from the city and outside headbanging to their fullest amidst the gothic dimly lit non air-conditioned theatre hall which usually staged plays and other cultural events. The Pit - The Legacy is back again with its tenth volume, after three year break due t...

A total carnation amongst the flute of pessimists. A nefariously nether world of mob contemplated in the flesh of reptiles. We are the desperation!! A living contradiction amongst misery's cry Wailing the invasions of paradox.
