We often stumble upon new artistes and their music from the most unexpected of sources. So, when I tell you that India's highest ranked tennis player, Somdev Devvarman, was the reason I started listening to the 'Tallest Man on Earth', it shouldn't come as much of a surprise to you. For a lot of reasons, he has to be one of the best things I discovered last year. [caption id="attachment_5883" align="alignleft" width="300" ca..

When words leave off, music begins.  ~Heinrich Heine While Gompie was still wondering who the X Alice is, there was a plethora of bands pouring forth their own interpretations of who, where and why she is. ‘Alice in Wonderland’ by Lewis Carroll, one of the most popular children’s books of all time, has also proved a great hit with musicians over the years.

Rock is beyond doubt a culture, a cult. It is a way of life for those who actually follow it and a desire for those who at least try. For others, it is a style statement, even if they have no idea what the deal is. That said, the charisma of Rock is explicitly clear and over the years, there have been stalwarts who have contributed to that effect. Here are probably the best of those great men.

Here comes one of the good bands, which fits into the genre of alternative rock and heavy metal. It is a Los Angeles based band, started by 3 members in 2009. The fresh sound of their compositions helped them become conspicuous in the eyes of people, and needless to say, there was no looking back. The band members used their respective talents in the shrewdest manner, which is the reason for their colossal success in such l..
