The band started its first live show of the series in TSC, University of Dhaka, back on November 25, 2021, and introduced everyone to their conceptual album titled "Hyena Express" which tells the story of human civilization across different emotions, from the beginning to the end of mankind, with its nine tracks. Since then, the "Hyena Express Experience" journeyed through Dhaka, Chattogram, Rajshahi, Mymensingh, Barishal, and Rangpur in the last two years.

While Probar Ripon's vocals integrated poetry, Saad Chowdhury stunned concertgoers with his solo performance on the keyboard. A visual treat captivated the spectators when performance artistes in the guise of jokers took over the stage as "Mrittu Utpadon Karkhana" started playing. An extended member, Sohel, joined the show last night as the percussionist, exclusively for the first time, to blend in the rock tunes with sundry instruments. Songs from Ripon's former band, Monoshoroni, were sung as well.
