due to the loud sound that was generated when the band practised and since heavy metal band music was not at all popular in bangladesh at the time, rock strata was in a perpetual struggle to find appropriate practising places and ended up moving from one location to another frequently to practice. seeing this, shoaib set up a practice pad at his house by making one of the rooms in his house soundproof and at last rock strata had a fixed place for practising. as a consequence of this, intense practice sessions continued with regular shows being performed at various venues and the heavy metal underground scene is created. along with rock strata, several other bands performed in these shows, such as warfaze, in dhaka, and aces. as a result of these shows, a younger generation of metal heads took notice and started to follow these bands and in turn, started forming their own bands and the metal movement in bangladesh was born.
