The Down Troddence

"The Down Troddence is a powerhouse Indian metal band hailing from Kerala, known for their explosive fusion of groove metal, thrash, and traditional folk elements. Formed in 2008, they’ve carved a niche with their politically charged lyrics, massive riffs, and dynamic live shows that blend headbanging energy with cultural storytelling. Their breakout debut album, *How Are You? We Are Fine, Thank You* (2014), put them on the map as one of India’s most exciting metal acts, and they’ve continued to push boundaries with releases like *Fight. React. Be a Part!* and collaborations like *Maharani* for the *AYAKTIHIS* project. Balancing social commentary with unapologetic aggression, they’ve become a staple in India’s metal scene and a fiery voice for rebellion both locally and globally."
