WHO WHO

The World’s first truly heavy metal band made its debut in Calcutta recently. The band is named the Who Who, for some unknown reason. They are fast making a mark in the music scene. A recent article in the net edition of Dukkho Bajar Patrika was headlined: "Hu hu kore unnoti korchhe Who Who."

Speaking to our underground reporter Bara Bari Misra, the lead guitarist of Who Who, Pete Bumsend (known as Pb to his innumerable fans) said, "Ours is the world’s first truly heavy metal band. My guitar is made of lead (Pb), with antimony (Sb) strings, while Halfu’s (Band drummer Half Moon) drums are made of chromium (Cr). We also use a bass guitar made of basic mercury (Hg) which might explain the liquid bass solos. The marimba is made of molybdenum (Mo).

Who Who have recently released their debut CD called Cadmium (Cd). The critically acclaimed songs in the album include: Fragments of Lead, A Man in a Thallium Dress, In the Mercury, Black Widow’s Arsenic and Copper Door.

Their concert was telecast live by the Nickel-odeon channel.
