The band is active both on instrumental pure progressive stuff as well as vocalized hard rock music.

However that it is composed in occidental instrumentation, may could uncover the oriental origin of its composer in background. This album has now put on sale on band's website. The second album, Sovereign, is also instrumental and this time the possibilities of electronic music in companion with modern hard-rock instrumentation is being shown. This album is currently being under mastering process. The third album, Roar, is a vocalized hard-rock/metal blend which recites a "message toward every artificial bounds and bindings". Illusions which are being surpassed by the aid of new millennium technology. This album will be released in April 2007.
After some years of underground activity, the band realized that the current "physical" musical scene in Iran is not fertilized at all. So ARASHK decided to become more active in virtual net world. ARASHK aims to take the advantage of this digital representation of "collective unconsciousness" as his current stage.
