We started on January 2003,Although main parts of tracks have been written by Homayoon Majdzadeh (guitarist) during the past years. Official band's activities started by joining other members ,Ardavan Anzabipour (Bassist), khaled Sanad zadeh (Drummer) ,Ali Khodadoost (Keyboardist).
"Virtual Existence" Album was completed in fall 2003. The band decided to play a concert before recording. So Kahtmayan was on stage about a week in January 2004 with former members, Ali Khodadoost & Khaled Sanadzadeh. After Khaled left the band, Kahtmayan joined Vanik Vartanian as a new drummer on February 2004.
Kahtmayan's initial sound consisted of blending heavy metal with traditional Iranian folk music. The focus in recent years has been to write and compose instrumental songs. The first album (Virtual Existence) is in the vein of progressive metal performed with guitar, bass, keyboard, and drums. In creation of this album, we have used melodic elements and various harmonic textures and rhythms. Virtual Existence consists of 9 tracks and was written by Homayoon Majdzadeh in 2002. The album is scheduled for release in 2007.
Since most metal fans in Iran are into Thrash Metal, we decided to record the "EXIR" album. We changed the line up for this ablum to achieve a more thrash sound. So we replaced the keyboardist with a second guitarist, Ali Azhari, in April 2005.
After recording is completed on "Virtual Existence", Kahtmayan plans to broaden their musical direction by adding vocals to their lineup!
