Actually, I just couldn't think of a title la. As a matter of fact, I don't even know what to write about in this post. Life has been OK to me this break. Well, that's if you don't count last month's phone bill.

All I did during the break was go out with Leah, finish three books in a week (HP7, 4th reading of Anansi Boys and Doctors), and download songs. Sad, I know. But it was alright for me. Anywayz, I was just talking to Hema about passing me some songs from her boyfriend's (Dude's name's Shan and he plays the drums) bands ( Ask Me Again and Jah'z Disciples).

I watched AMA at a charity concert in Zouk sometime last month and they were the first underground band to perform (show was split in two: underground/unsigned and mainstream). Boy, did they rock! They set the standards that night and except for Flow, no other underground band could get the crowd going. Hell, they were so good that the crowd asked them to play an encore. AMA does not exactly play heavy music. More pop-rockish but certainly heavier than Frequency Cannon and Estranged. Feel good music, you can say.

On the other hand, Jah'z is a metal band, playing headbanging DUH! stuff. I haven't watched them play but I did hear some of their songs and I was equally impressed as I was when I first heard Dragon Red. Well, I don't actually have to say how good they are. They were good enough to be interviewed on FLY FM.

If you people out there are remotely interested in listening to either band, please check out their MySpace accounts ( nobody actually bothers setting up a real website anymore. MySpace rocks la!!).
