Jamrock Becomes Jamrud
On October 25, 1995, the name Jamrock was changed to Jamrud. The reason Jamrock's name was changed to Jamrud was to avoid problems in the future and to make it more pleasant to listen to.
After changing its name to Jamrud, Nekad's first album was released on December 15, 1995 under Logis Records.
In a short time, their first album, Nekad (1995), achieved sales of 150 thousand copies.
