New York New York!

aku dan New York bands..of all the places in the world..aku rasa mostly my favourite bands are from Nuyawk.New York bands never frustrates me.Plus Gossip Girl.Plus the Flatiron Building.Plus the song by Sinatra.Plus the architecture.Plus FRIENDS and Central Park and You've Got Mail.but of course itu hanyalah in the movies.i wish to go there someday and watch my fave bands live.someday..someday..and bukan utk jadi duta Maybelline mcm Siti Nurhaliza ok!!

tapi aku x bias..i am a universal listener.and i listened to stuff from all over the places.From Aussie to Iceland.ape2 yg telinga and hati aku can bear.but this blog,is a tribute fer my fave ones in New York New York.

Starting from The Strokes.from their music to their style,to Julians' spitting the melodies out,to Fab's and Albert's big hair..i'm a HUGE fan of The Strokes ever since high school.also a fan of Hujan.maybe influence dia sama.the drumbeat and the strums.so anyway..The Strokes,favourite album aku ttp the 1st album,Modern Age.and my fave song is Someday and Hard To Explain and Reptilia from Room on Fire (i LOVE the guitar solo part).Julian,Nikolai,Fab,Nick and Albert ,super 5 (esp Julian and Fab*aahhh the hair!!).Gods of New York.also listen to Albert Hammond Jr (The Strokes guitarist a.k.a anak Albert Hammond the "it-never-rains-in-California" singer).terbaik.

moving on.aku mls nk elaborate satu per satu.so ima make a list of the other bands i love all hailed from New York.and all the bands i fantasize to watch right in front of my eyes.please?

+ Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Yes they're only a three piece band tp the effects and all doesnt sound like one person making all those sounds.plus Karen O's awkward style.Just listen to Kiss Kiss and Phenomena.love!

+ Interpol
SUPER!.nuff said(suara die dgn muka die mcm x padan..i never expected him to look like that!).i love the song called Evil.plus the vid.

+ The Killers
yeah,plus the hot frontman.Brandon Flowers and his voice.their tunes are always singable.slalu stuck dlm kepala ble teringat.and yeah,rival The Bravery yg terhebat.

+ Le Tigre
also a 3 piece all girls band.band ni best dilayan pagi2 masa aku tgh nak get ready to work.especially Deceptacon.tetiba aku teringat The Plasticines from France.

+ We Are Scientists
ok,now aku prasan byk bands from New York ada 3 members je.but We Are Scientists skrg da tinggal 2 org je.Michael the drummer left the band atas reason ape pun aku xtau.but these 3 geeks (yg konon mcm geeks with all the shirt tucked in or polo shirt on and oversized glasses).another morning band.try to listen to Inaction.and this is the only New York band i've seen live,at Zouk in 2006.i was right in front of Keith,like betul2 dpn mic stand die,SUPER STELLAR!!.remember the cover of "be my baby" they did?when die pegi dkt crowd and ppl start grabbing his hair and whatever they should grab?.haih..the crowd went CRAZY.ok nuff said.but i dont really dig their new stuff.
9th August 06 - WE ARE SCIENTISTS!!, Malaysia

+ MGMT
so here's my latest obsession from New York city.maybe aku agk lambat to find their stuff.sbb aku only prasan kewujudan MGMT bila aku tgk movie 21..in the beginning of the movie they played the song Time To Pretend.tros aku suka.and yeah..MGMT buat aku gila.

+ The Bravery
In my opinion,still xley beat The Killers.sorry..but aku suka An Honest Mistake.

+ so the list goes on and on.*aku xley recall da sape lg.i'll update later.

Conclusions:
+ aku rasa these bands from New York mostly frontman die xyah try too hard to be a frontman.mostly monotonous or menjerit2 or hyper..or flat.prasan x?
+ Mostly bands yg aku dgr bila bangun dr tdo then capai towel and mandi laju2 sambil menari to these songs..in the shower.yes.
+ and i won't dance to others but these.
+ Next i'll come up with bands from California.or bands tenang.or suicidal bands.


+ But im in the mood for The Pixies
