Motherjane- Maktub

Now, as promised earlier, something about their new album "Maktub". Today I heard this album for the first time .Applying the progressive standards 'Maktub' is somewhat unusual consisting of short and compact songs with a total length of little more than 40 minutes which is equivalent to a vinyl production. But this is all made on a high standard and worth it to take some time to explore. Besides the striking guitar work Suraj as the frontman is the other band's attraction fitted with an excellent voice.

Thoughts - The Insurrection

"One of the most difficult things in the world is to convince a woman that even a bargain costs money."

The Call: Views by Srikant Kuanar

Still going thru Jilawatan in my iPod...
The first time i went thru them i had a feeling that they play a bit
more"Hard Rock" than normal pakistani bands.
Pukar for some reason reminded me of Rock on Songs..

Motherjane

After a long and frustrating week of not finding anything nice enough to hear I download this band "Motherjane". I had once attended their concert in 2004 in IITD when at that time they had recently won award for "Best Indian Rock Album" in 2002 or something like that. That concert was not much impressive so I hardly remember any other song except "Questions" played by them there, which indeed is not the best song of the album "Insane Biography". But this time when I listen to the whole album these guys from Cochin impressed me a lot. U really feel a fresh breeze especially if u are freaked out after listening to all the so called big shots of music and tryin' everything from Country to Rock and Jazz and Blues and Reggae and even Indian classical music.For the last 10 days I am continuosly listen to their music along with other Indian Bands.
