We all know that Albatross is one of the multitalented band of Nepal.The band is one of the top hard rock band from which have shown thier performance in many country.In short period of time the band have earned many audience.
Plagued
with ever-changing vocalists, Albatross had been inactive for almost
two years. But when Sirish, one of their older singers was back on a
break from the US, they swung into action and churned out what is an
excellently composed album.
People familiar with the older
Hell's Kitchen or Hi:Fly Albatross will definitely be surprised with the
sound of their yet untitled new album. While Hi:Fly was an out and out
hard rock/metal record, their latest material lies in modern rock
territory—and that is exactly where the magic lies. After all, it was
their modern rock covers that earned them fame.
Recorded at BMI
studio, the five tracks on the album, most of which are in Nepali, were
written and composed by Sirish. "He wrote the songs while we added the
finishing touches," says Sunny, the guitarist. "We spent just three days
rehearsing and then three days for the recording."
The sound
is reminiscent of the mid-90s alternative rock while Sirish's vocals
hint at Incubus-styling. Lyrically, the songs on the album touch various
subjects like love 'Khaseka Tara', persistence 'Koshish' and a call to
friends in the US to return home 'Timi Bhane'. 'Sacred', the only
English track, is an acoustic song based on a tune that Sirish always
plays when he picks up a guitar. Hard rocking or not, Albatross always
prove that no matter what the style they'll still play it well.
People
familiar with the band may remember that Albatross never released
"Hi:Fly" in the market either and the same goes for "Abattoir", their
death metal project with members of the now-defunct Nastik. Because
their new album has only 5 tracks, initially it too almost shared the
same fate. However, a newly established indi-lable, Hamro Records Ramro
Records, has decided to release it with three bonus tracks from Hi:Fly.
