Cult of Fire is an atmospheric metal band with Hindu and Buddhist themes that was formed in 2010. Although the band’s focus was different in their early years, everything changed in 2013 with their album मृत्यु का तापसी अनुध्यान , which according to the band was “the most complex and deep work of art” they had ever created. The album was built around the goddess Kali, Aghoris, and funeral rites in India and its immediate surroundings. Before each album, Vlad travels to India, where he places offerings on altars, worships gods in local temples, and meditates. He draws inspiration and energy from this and then puts it into the music and stage presence of the band. The vast majority of everything used on stage during Cult of Fire’s live performances comes from India and Nepal. Cult of Fire is a musical tribute and worship of Hindu and Buddhist deities and their live shows are an exhibition of Tantric rituals, Aghoris, Kali, Shiva and other deities. For those who are drawn to ancient rituals and the scent of the Orient and want to be transported thousands of miles to the East, Cult of Fire will give you that experience.
