When it comes to Heavy Metal in India, there is one name that supersedes all others: Millennium.

On this episode of Bangalore In Stories, Millennium's lead vocalist, Vehrnon Ibrahim, tells us about the origins of the band, highlights from his music career, and why Bangalore became such a Heavy Metal hotbed.
