Get Ready! An army of music has loaded its guns to blast Lahore with music preaching freedom, writes Marian Sharaf.

For the past many years, music has played a vital role in initiating peace movements and bringing revolution; be it WWII or the Vietnam War – Flower Power being the biggest and most affective of all. No wonder someone once said, “The guitar is mightier than the sword.” Unfortunately, our country, which was born amidst political chaos of the Indian British Raj, is yet gliding in doldrums. There have always been artistes struggling for recognition, writers pleading for freedom of expression and politicians proving their loyalty in vain. Nonetheless, the entertainment industry has survived, positively making an impression every now and then. Yet, there is a lot to do; a lot more to talk about. Continue

Hey there everyone! Here’s a brief review on something special:

Chester’s (Linkin Park Vocalist) new album,  ’Dead by Sunrise’, was released yesterday (13th October 2009). It’s available for download directly from your iTunes / Amazon / Microsoft Zune Marketplace.

I personally bought the album and loved it.

The album begins with the ground breaking song “Fire”. It has a kind of alternative rock style to it. I think ‘Fire’ is performing the best, on the 2009 Single’s music chart, so far. There are some other amazing songs on the rest of the album such as “Crawl Back In”, “Inside Of Me”, and not to mention the soft rock track “Too Late”. Some other good ones are “My Suffering”, “Give Me Your Name”, and “Walking In Circles”.

The album is a shift from the typical Linkin Park rock / alternative / soul and NuRock style. I really don’t want to ruin the surprise for you, so check out the iTunes Link

We’ll be posting some more stuff on music very soon!

Stay tuned for more…
