Digital Suicide

Alright! Yes so I know I have committed the cardinal sin of blogging. I hate to disappear for such a long time, but in all honesty, I needed it. I don't know what it is about Indian rockers that I was just not feeling. But a few revisits to Avial and Mother Jane has coaxed me to get this space going again.

So lets get down to business. Digital Suicide. These guys are bringing the ROCK back! Yes, they are very contemporary, commercial, Killers-Audioslaveish. However! They are good at it! I mean really really effin good.


This trio bring originality in the form of guitar tones and vocal feel. Drumming is tight, and grungy at the same time. A balance that is very tough to find. The arrangements are unique but still appealing in the sense of mainstream music. And overall, I like them. I haven't nearly heard enough to love them yet though, but I am definitely going to download their demo album. And why the hell not? Its FREE! :D

HERE is their website where you can listen and download to a bunch of their songs. My personal favourite is No.4, called Amnesia.

Overall verdict - Worth a listen.

p.s More reviews and info to come soon. This time I promise!

Cheese

Ok... ive decided not to udpate everyday, not because i'm lazy... which i am either way, but I like to spend a couple of days listening to each band... find what I like... these bands are my new music library, but I do want to get a chance to listen to each one as I go along.

Anyway... this post is for a band named Cheese... you can check out their songs HERE, or just click on the picture above. The songs take a bit of time to load, so give it a minute or two.

Thanks for the link Harry. The site is awesome. I have linked it on the right hand side-bar.

OK!! so lets take a look at Cheese! These guys seem to be a fresh band. I think they have an album out. They do have a site which you can get to over HERE. I don't know what i really think about the band quite yet. First impression is that they are quite cliched, with songs titled Josh, Azaadi, and Meri Zindagi. Their english songs, Wasted Years and Please Tell Me That You Love Me have nothing much to offer lyrically... mostly the same stuff you hear in any generic pop/rock song.

BUT! Even though these guys are what I would call "safe" music, they have a good sound. There are hints of brilliance in the Keyboards, and they fuse well as a band. Their riffs are good head-bobbing material (although again, nothing very original).

My verdict - Worth a listen, atleast once. Good sing-along music, catchy choruses and fun vibes. I would probably buy their album for a casual listen once in a while.

Khadki Junction Blues

This is a brief post, because I'm tired and also because I can. This band is called Khadki Junction Blues, and not only do they have a catchy name, they have some pretty cool songs too. I'm still figuring out how to post songs over here.

Click HERE to go to their MySpace page. You can hear a few of their songs there.

These guys have a great chilled out sound that is honest, humorous and appealing. Quite experimental at times, you might need to tune your ears to come around to liking them. I like them and I think that they are worth a listen. Check em out!!
