Rainbow Music Store - how a tiny music shop made a great influence on Bangladeshi hard-rock

Warfaze

A lovely article in the Bangla newspaper The Daily Star about a small music shop Rainbow Music Store which opened up in 1982 in the backstreet of its capital Dhaka only to leave a great influence on Bangladeshi hard rock. The owners of the store weren't just selling music, they were also educators in all things rock and metal – the bands, the albums, and the history. Several prominent bands rose from that foundation - prog metal band Artcell, RockStrata, and Warfaze.
