Burzukh came in to being in 2001. It is a one-man studio
band formed by Syed Suleiman Ali (myself). After playing
in various local bands including The Banned, Holy Black
and Dark Death I decided to record and produce my work
as a solo artist. Modern technology provided me with the
boon of recording all tracks myself and thus Burzukh was
born . The theme behind this solo project was and still
is to make music unhindered by commercial concerns. It
is also a more focused artistic vision than a typical
metal band. Initially the Burzukh sound was black/heavy
metal with gothic overtones but later gnres melted and
mutated and now it stands as an amlagamation of of a lot
of genres. My main influences are : Iron Maiden, Emperor,
Neurosis, Cradle of Filth, Type O Negative, Napalm Death,
My Dying Bride, David Bowie, The Cure, Ministry, Helmet,
NIN and a lot of 70's classic and hard rock. I use Crate,
Marshall, Wasp and Roland amps with Ed Stevens, Yamaha
and BC Rich guitars. All the drums and synths are
computer-based applications including Fruity Loops,
Hammer head, Leafy Drums, Arcturia Storm etc. All my
demos have been recorded and engineered using Cakewalk
Pro.
