Album Review - The Departure Squirt Guns (Nepal)

So finally the last post for the year. 2015 was one hell of a year from the massive devastation to the recent blockage in the southern region; i hope no one faces such crisis situation in their entire life. Well as you all know we are wrapping up 2015, here is a small article (which i prefer saying rather than a review) of Squirt Guns.

A struggle for a perfect lie 

You're living through a perfect lie

Happiness you'll never see

cause satisfied you'll never be

What happens when you get the music that you wanted from a long time, from the band you never expected. Similar case happened to me today when i was going through the Kathmandu based Punk rock act Squirt Guns second album the departure. The album is around 31 minutes long consisting of 8 tracks. The track list is as below

• Perfect Lie
• Two Face
• Somethings Wrong
• Tel-lie-vision
• Temptation
• The Departure
• Turn The Page
• Futility Of Existence

Talking about the album the entire aspect from production to lyrics are mature. In my view this album is one of the best release from the punk scene of the country. Without further delay i will like to rate the album 9/10..

We hope you guys come with some more massive releases in upcoming days and we wish you all a happy new year 2016..

SCREAM BLOODY DEATH. A DEATH TRIBUTE FROM BANGLADESH.

"There are no limits, you are only limited how far you wanted to be limited"                                                                         - Chuck Schuldiner (May 13 1967- December 13 2001)

A tribute to almighty DEATH all the way from Bangladesh!!!

"14 years have passed by since one of the greatest philosophers of music history has departed from this world. But his legacy still lives on. The torch that he lit up with his band 31 years ago, has been passing through generations, one after another.
Its about time that we paid our homage to that innovator, his band and their ageless creations."

This is what the Bangladesh Metal Alliance‎ representatives told us when we ask them about SCREAM BLOODY DEATH-A Tribute To Death From Bangladesh.

After the successful East Bengal Onslaught, Bangladesh Metal Alliance proudly announces its next gig, "SCREAM BLOODY DEATH", a gig where 21 musicians will come together to celebrate and preach Death, the whole Death and nothing but Death!! .

There are 21 musicians who are divided into 4 super groups who will stage 17 songs of Death (Official) and pay their respect to the band. The gig will take place on 8th of January 2016 at National Library Auditorium, Agargaon.

On Behalf of entire S N R M B family we convey our best wishes for the the success of the event...
