Ozzies Everywhere: Leicestershire To Ohio To Paikpara

Ozzies Everywhere: Leicestershire To Ohio To Paikpara Mohua Das TNN Jul 23, 2025, 21:10 IST Heavy metal's guttural howls & ear-splitting guitar may no longer top charts. But metalheads abound, across countries & cultures, in any offbeat space willing to handle the decibels Once upon a snowstorm, heavy metal blasting from a car stereo saved a man's life. Or so claimed a 1990s print ad that ran with the tagline, ' Judas Priest saved my life.' The story went that a man trapped in the snow was miraculously rescued when Rob Halford's screams pierced through the blizzard and alerted help. The joke sold speakers. But it was also kind of believable. Because that's the thing about heavy metal. It doesn't ask to be heard. It bludgeons its way into your ears. Cut to 2025. Ozzy Osbourne just died. Judas Priest isn't selling sound systems anymore. Metal isn't on the charts and the long-haired leather-clad gods of yore haven't ruled pop culture in decades. But try telling that to the 80,000-strong crowd at the Download Festival in Leicestershire each June where bands like Metallica , Iron Maiden and Slipknot still reign supreme. Or to the sea of loyalists at Sonic Temple in Ohio, where crowds top 120,000. Or, closer home, at underground mosh pits and DIY metal fests in Bangalore, Bombay and Bengal.

Kancha is cool! Goli soda makes a fizzy comeback

Kancha is cool! Goli soda makes a fizzy comeback Sneha Bhura TNN Jul 19, 2025, 17:13 IST IST Once a roadside staple, the banta is finding new fans, not just in India but across the world After the Tamil song 'Rowdy Baby' became a global chartbuster a few years ago, actor and singer Dhanush posted a photo on Instagram featuring a bottle of goli soda on the table. He revealed it had inspired the hit song's now-iconic opening line: 'Hey en goli soda ve.' Banta , goti soda, kanche wali bottle, or fotash jawl, goli soda has many names depending on where you are in India. Traditionally, it was made by street vendors who used a rotating machine to fill Codd-neck bottles with flavoured carbonated water, sealed shut with a glass marble held in place by pressure. But today, you no longer need to chase down a thela under the blazing sun. With all their retro charm, these bottles are now showing up on restaurant menus and quick-commerce apps in a variety of flavours — from blueberry to apple mojito. Some brands are marketing them as handcrafted, artisanal, preservative-free, and even bottled with the 'finest marbles'.
