Muhūrta is a band that blends saturated guitar, beautiful acoustic ballads, and harmonious sitar phrases in a traditionally Indian style. Created by Pierre Selva and Matthieu Géhin, two students of sitar master Michel Guay, these two fans of big sounds offer a new world of metal. The band draws inspiration from several genres such as death, thrash, doom, and stoner. The fundamental principles and structures of Indian classical music are present in the compositions, like the three main parts that make up an Indian classical music concert, with their intoxicating beginnings and explosive endings.
