Xperience Sessions With Indie Band Blind Graffiti
RJ Rohit caught up with the Indie band, Blind Graffiti about their new track ‘Roleplay’.
Fans of progressive rock and alternative music have something fresh to dive into—Blind Graffiti, the electrifying four-piece, has just dropped their newest single, ‘Roleplay’, now streaming across all major platforms.
Renowned for crafting rich, immersive soundscapes and detailed arrangements, Blind Graffiti once again pushes creative limits with ‘Roleplay’. The track fuses their trademark progressive rock style with alternative textures, offering an intense sonic experience marked by soaring melodies, intricate rhythms, and deeply emotive lyrics.
Emerging from Bangalore’s thriving music circuit, Blind Graffiti is a rock outfit that refuses to fit into any single genre. Their sound is a bold mix—melding the soul of classic rock, the intricacy of progressive arrangements, the swagger of funk, and the raw punch of heavy metal. The result? A style that’s unmistakably theirs—layered, loud, and emotionally charged.
Drawing inspiration from a broad musical spectrum, the band channels the energy of acts like Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, the technical finesse of Dream Theater and Tool, the groove of Red Hot Chili Peppers and James Brown, and the firepower of Iron Maiden and Metallica. But Blind Graffiti doesn’t mimic—they reinterpret these legacies through their own lens, crafting something fresh and fiercely individual.
To them, music is more than art—it’s instinct. It’s how they articulate what words alone can’t. Their creative drive is fuelled by the need to resonate with listeners, to provoke thought, and to forge an emotional link through sound. Their chemistry is evident, whether they’re writing together or taking the stage.
Each member brings years of experience from influential Indian acts like Solder, Divine Raaga, and Chimera, including appearances on platforms such as Coke Studio. These journeys converge in Blind Graffiti, where their shared vision and mutual respect translate into a tight, dynamic performance style and fearless experimentation.
Their live sets are high-octane affairs—part sonic assault, part spiritual release. It’s where their music truly breathes, delivering a performance that’s not just heard but felt. Audiences can expect controlled chaos, technical mastery, and raw expression, all packed into one powerful experience.
While rooted in Bangalore’s alternative music community, the band’s reach goes beyond geography. Their songs delve into the complexities of human life—grappling with emotion, societal shifts, and self-discovery. Writing together is a collaborative ritual for them, where personal ideas transform into shared anthems.
Having earned a loyal base through consistent local performances, Blind Graffiti is now looking outward. Their mission is clear: to take their sound beyond borders and bring their brand of modern rock to a global audience. Blind Graffiti isn’t just playing music—they’re building a movement, one riff at a time. And this is only the beginning.
