Black is a Bangladeshi alternative rock band formed in 1998 in Dhaka.[1] It was originally formed by Jon Kabir (lead singer, rhythm guitars), Mushfeque Jahan (lead guitars), and Tony Vincent (drums). They were soon joined by Mahmudul Karim Miraz (bass guitars), and in 2000, Tahsan Rahman Khan (keyboards and vocals).[2]

After signing a contract with G-Series, Black broke through the mainstream with their debut studio album "Amar Prithibi" (2002). Since then, they have released five studio albums and have appeared in some mixed albums. Their latest album (Unomanush) was released in 2016 by G-Series. They were one of key rock bands of the 2000s along with Nemesis and Stentorian, who popularized alternative rock music in Bangladesh.
