"ROX3N" or "ROXEN is derived from the urdu word "ROZEN" which means "A hole in a wall of a prison cell from which a ray of light emerges & gives hope & freshness".(Rozen-E-Deewar). Name of the band was suggested by Kashaan, a friend of Mustafa Zahid
[edit] Music
Roxen was formed back in September 2004 with initial line up of Mustafa a.k.a musti , Jawad a.k.a Jodi and Omar & came out with their debut song "Yaadein" which labeled them as "another jal-wannabe band" and the song failed to leave a good impact.
After a couple of months they came out with web release of another song called "tau phir aoo" with its demo version. The song registered over 65000 downloads in one month[1]. After adding another young talent Haider from Lahore underground the band started working on there debut album at Xth Harmonic in October 2005 and later came out with another audio/video of there track "Sapnay" directed by Ahmed Ali Butt.
