Ajab Tamasha Yeah Right


Ajab Tamasha seems like a violent yet promising video at first but the moment the lyrics seep in it spins your attention to a thought provoking dilemma of this country that is “brain drain”. This is what has happened to our industries and now to media also. We have lost artists to this, actors musicians, singers, you name it. Channels are helping in this. I like the spirit of bands and artists that do not believe in leaving this territory. For the rest I guess EP says it this way :

Rona hai yeh purana
Bus kero yeh bahana
Apna yehi thikana hai

This is a song that can bring a revolution so I can call it a bomb-track. Packed with thought provoking lyrics this song has the potential for becoming a hot single on the charts. Sadly the nation is more into love stricken songs of the neighboring country. Right from the beginning you can feel the power packed composition explodes on your screen.

Salman has grown up into a great guitarist and his solo seems a little off yet he pulls it off in style. Farhad has always done great with is pair of firewood and skins. This is a beautiful song thanks to its brilliant composition and the really encouraging rhythm. Hassaan has done a great job with his four strings. For Butt sahab this is a radiant attempt and a perfect performance to discourage your cynics and proving once again that EP is still alive and kicking.

For all those who thought EP would be lost without xulfi, fawad and waqar, this is the song for you. Filling in all the shoes the rest of the band has does a great job. Of course a little expertise from Farhad Hamayun also.

For those who doubted and said EP was dead a line for the lyrics:

“Kyun Rung tera fuk hai”


Please do give a try if you haven’t yet:
