It was July 2010 and Rock Fever and Planet musical Academy were busy at working for their Next Event Metal Jatra. I had already met “Jwalan Shrestha” Founder of Planet Musical Academy at some point. We were just talking about the event and suddenly the idea of making a documentary for the next “Metal Jatra 2” Popped at that instant. We had a shoot for more than 3 days using a DSLR camera rig. Sagar Shrestha an enthusiastic guy who helped us with all the audio part of and shooting as well. The shoot was very interesting and there was a time where we needed to shoot the live performance at Bhrikuti mandap. We went there for the shoot but due to our equipment limitation the shoot at the live spot was impossible. Hence the vision to make this a documentary shattered at that point. Actually that was achievable but it wouldn’t meet the quality of product that i had once imagined of.

But I was very restless to create this as a documentary which I had tried as well, but there was very low response. But Magically one day I got a brilliant idea of making the web series from the whole project. I know you guys can only imagine how the Documentary had been if i would have got the support to complete the project. But still we managed to pull this off. So here some of the Under Ground metal bands of kathamandu and their interview as well. We all know that there are other good metal bands in Kathmandu which we have missed over here so we hope that we would be able to feature them as well in near future.
So then talking about Metal Jatra II which had some of the best death, black metal bands from the country, from 72 hrs, Binaash, Vomiting Snake, Gothica, Dead Mariners to Edge of Horizon, Hex Visions and Prakat.
