DEMONIC RESURRECTION picked up the Metal Hammer Golden God Award in the Global Metal category in June 2010 and followed it up by bagging the "Best Song" and "Best Album" awards in the public choice category at the Rolling Stone Metal Awards that same month. The band has now been nominated in the Best Band category which is open for public voting as well as for individual awards in the best Drummer, Vocalist, Guitarist and Keyboardist categories at the Jack Daniel Rock Awards.

IMR: Howdy Sidd! How are the things at TOUGH ON TOBACCO's campaign? Could you tell me a little bit about the history of the band? Where did you guys all meet and what brought you together as a collective group?
Sidd Coutto(ToT): We're a band, not a political party. So we have no campaign. Though, if we did, our slogan would be 'mad o vote?'
The ToT bassist Johan played with me in my first band in Mumbai in 1997. We've been friends ever since. We were in HELGA’s FUN CASTLE from 2004 with drummer Jai Row Kavi, who I first met when he offered to be my roadie in Zero. I met guitarist Gaurav when I helped produce a recording for his band Red Cube, 3 years ago. Guitarist Pozy was a Warren/Zero fan and played in its last line-up.
Helga's and Zero folded up around the same time. And I'd been working on the Tough on Tobacco album (at that point ToT was a two man effort between me and sound engineer/co-producer Hans Dalal). The guys came together to take that material on the road.

TOUGH ON TOBACCO, the Pop/Rock/Reggae band from Mumbai has recently launched the bands debut music video for the single TAXI SONG which comes from the bands debut album THE HAPPY GOAT.
