Warfaze is a popular hard rock and heavy metal band in Bangladesh both in the underground and mainstream scene.The band was formed in 1984. Kamal, Mir, Hell, Naimul and Bappy started a line up and after a very short time Tipu joined the band as drummer and band leader. They started the journey to do some real good hard rock and heavy metal music in Bangladesh in the old days where people used to listen only to pop, folk etc kind of music.They introduced the mass people to the sound of bengali hard rock for the first time. Soon they became very popular.
