There is this pakistani band out there called Junoon, who are real big in South Asia. They have played to crowds of 60,000 plus and have even had a documentry on Vh1. This band stands for peace and tolerance, a message that is overshadowed by the "religious" fanatics of Pakistan. But anywayz, they are releasing a new English Album shortly, and they have released a single called No More. This song was written for those who lost their lives on 9/11. The video is out there, so if u could dl or jus watch the streaming version and tell me what yall think that would be real cool. Well here is the link. Click Here
Yeah, I saw that special on VH1. It was like a behind the music of a band i'd never heard of. Still, a very interesting story. I like how they fuse classic middle eastern sounds with rock, sounds really cool. Didn't they get introuble in pre-Musharef Pakistatn for playing in India or something?
Boooo...it says there is no more video! What oski said...I always dig bands that try to infuse something original in their music.
I'll check them out for sure. What language are most of their lyrics? Do they sing in English? o.k. sorry, now I see you said they're releasing an album in English, alright. Maybe you could post some lyrics or I'll try and find some- I haven't checked the link, yet. Thanks.
NO MORE (LYRICS BY SALMAN AHMAD & POLAR LEVINE, MUSIC BY SALMAN AHMAD) In my lungs through my windows on my head on the floor ashes of falling hope choking me inside these doors stormy winds seduce the night over newyork and karachi skies sinking in a sea of time mourning since 11/9 No more,I'm breathing you no more,I'm missing you no more,No more God and money take the blame for suicidal video games if all that lives is born to die love remains i wonder why on black and white tv red is all i see I'm sick of spying eyes wearing suits and secret ties (Repeat) No More the dream is not yet over keep yourself alive hold on we may survive (Repeat) No More
