Arbovirus
Arbovirus:
We just needed a name while one of us was reading a blade comic and got the name from there. It means the virus that turns a person to a vampire when it is transmitted through a vampire's saliva.
Genre of Music:
Alternative Rock
History:
Arbovirus is a virus from Bangladesh formed in 2002 by Suharto, Ranjan, Ishtiaque and Ahsan who all were friends for a long time. In 2003 January they did their first show. After performing in some gigs with guest bassist, Jishan joined the band as a bassist. Ishtiaque and Ahsan left the band for personal reasons so the band was inactive for some time. Shuvo and Tanim joined the band in the middle of 2003. The band recorded their first song for the album Agantuk-2 and got an album deal just after the album had been released. After that they released 2 singles in mixed albums Lokayoto and Din Bodol. They released their debut album on July 20, 2006 named "64m 53s" consisting of 12 tracks. They released 3 more singles in Live Now (by Ershad), Boka Manushta (bya Sumon of Aurthohin), and Bonno (by Fuad).
Their latest single "Jaalo aagun jaalo" is about to be released in a new mixed album coordinated by Tipu of Warfaze.
The band is honored to be one of the proud members of BAMBA.
