Been listening to some new(?) bands recently.
So I think I made a smooth transition from acoustic pleasures to alternative indulgences.
Not bad, I must say. The choices made.

Will just note down a few, you people must go check it out. Good bands, good music.

1. Ok Go
Ya, that's their band name. Hahah very funny but their music is quite 'noisy'. But nice. Pieces like 'Do What You Want' and 'Here It Goes Again' should be quite a good start for most. Don't know much on the band, think not much coverage about them. Worth a check though.

2. The Magic Numbers
Don't think they are a new band but who cares anyway. Into their music now. Think I got their songs from one friend quite some time ago. They have nice compositions! 'Love Me Like You', 'Forever lost' and 'Morning Eleven' are quite addictive for a start. The music is cute(to me), in a sense that, you will get 'attached' to it some sort. Like you know, you wanna tap/shake/groove to the rhythm easily. The band gets to their audience quite effortlessly. At least for me. I kind of like them. Sounds happy to me.

3. SNOW PATROL!
This is most prob the alternative band of the moment. Don't think I have to say more. Their 'Chasing Cars' are receiving so much airwave. Heard it twice a day? hahah. But they are definitely worth the good reviews given to them. Very catchy tune to their pieces. Beside that hit, can check out 'Run', 'Hands Open' and 'How to be Dead'. If you like Chasing cars, can give those a try.

So alternative(rock) is keeping me contented now. Shall go to HMV or some cd shops to browse for some good alternative cds. I like this shift. From acoustic to alternative. Acoustic was nice but a tad sad at times. Haha, im beginning to be convinced that the macbook is an evil creation. It's all nice and sleek but it hardly works normally. I cant do my work on it(no MS office), my msn is in a pathetic state(its MSN v4 :( ) and it refuses to sign in every night. Sigh, i'm finding it hard to remind myself of the redeeming factor of the macbook(ehh, it has a webcam.. and... er... cant think of any alr!). Boohoo.


Yawns. much more comfortable today. sigh.
