Heavy !! Arun and the rest of the guys! \m/

God Complex is our latest single from our upcoming album.

A god complex is an unshakable belief characterized by consistently inflated feelings of personal ability, privilege, or infallibility. A person with a god complex may refuse to admit the possibility of their error or failure, even in the face of complex or intractable problems or difficult or impossible tasks, or may regard their personal opinions as unquestionably correct. The individual may disregard the rules of society and require special consideration or privileges.

Lyrics :-

I am god
The efficacy of this disease 
An aberration
I am god
Open your eyes to my reality 
Breath in
I am god
Gravitate to your fate
That you are conceived in
I am god
And I am all

In a world disillusioned (ugh)
megalomania, absolution soars
Reverence is due 
to the self far removed
to the self that’s far removed
to the self that’s far removed  
Reality when unglued

Heir to the fantasy
Unquestionable dilemma into play 
In this game of chess
The check board unfurls
Into a blur of grey
Embrace this fallacy
Unspeakable words through which you pray
Improved reality
Transcend into obscurity

In a self deluded, disenfranchised world
The God complex resides

I am god
The efficacy of this disease 
An aberration
I am god
Open your eyes to my reality
Breath in
I am god
Gravitate to your fate
That you are conceived in
I am god
And I am all




Devoid - God Complex

Aggressive. Angry. Fierce. Downright thrash metal.

Formed in a decade when heavy metal was still in its infant stages in India, Devoid has grown to become veteran death/thrash metallers representing a genre which was long under represented in the country.

Formed in 2005, the band then comprised of lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Arun Iyer, drummer Shubham Kumar and the lead guitarist Keshav Kumar. The three member group would meet Frank Pawar in 2006, which would be the line up for the larger part of the bands career. The band called ample attention on to itself by winning Campus Rock Idols which was one of the biggest competitions for rock and metal bands at that point in time, with in the first year of being together. With the fan base steadily increasing Devoid started touring with several indigenous acts in the scene like Demonic Resurrection, Bhayanak Maut, Myndsnare, Kryptos, Brute Force, Infernal Wrath etc. playing cities Pune, Hyderabad, Delhi, Shillong and home ground- Bombay. It wasn’t too long before the band moved from opening slots to headlining slots.

In 2010, Devoid reached one of its biggest and most crucial milestones in the band’s career when they released their debut ‘A God’s Lie’ through Demonstealer Records. The band toured Bangalore, Mumbai and Pune along side death/thrash metal troupers Nervecell from UAE. In the years to follow Devoid went on to share the stage with Cradle of Filth, Decapitated and Sybreed when the bands toured India. The band received rave reviews for the album all across, with one reviewer who went as far as to say that “A God’s Lie is a thrash metal fan’s wet dream come true”.

Post A God’s Lie, Devoid encountered two more vital milestones when the band reinvented itself with a new line up. In 2011, Sanju Aguiar who filled in for Keshav Kumar while he was in UK joined the band on a full time basis. In 2012 the band saw another line up change with the departure of bass guitarist Frank Pawar whose place was then filled in by Abhishek Kamdar.

The band that has always carried anti-establishment has the central lyrical theme is currently plotting its sophomore release, which would be a concept album. Devoid has, and always will be- Downright Thrash Metal.
