Plasmic Knock is a classic underdog story. Dhaka, Bangladesh, may not be known for their heavy metal music scene internationally, but that didn’t stop the dreams of a Adil Shah that founded Plasmic Knock in 2007. This group of friends would have no idea that this path would eventually turn them into international icons. The band’s current lineup is Adil Shah on Guitar, Saiduzzaman Sunny on Drums, Sakib Zesun on Vocal, Sazid Ali on Guitar, and Mashroor Raiyan on Bass
