All Is Wild, All Is Silent (2009)
i’ll meet you there
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field
I’ll meet you there.When the world lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase each other
doesn’t make any sense.- Rumi

i’ve had lots on my plate lately with my final exams coming up but strangely, that didn’t keep me away from all those marvellous new albums that just got released. the new outing from veteran Lambchop and live recordings from new band Flights (free DL) can both fit on a long road trip. So does Olan Mill, which i rediscovered since after listening to Alex Smalley on the post-rock paper scissors podcast.
on the Bollywood side of things, i’ve been singing along to practically all the songs of Rockstar after watching the movie twice. this truly is a masterpiece from A.R. Rahman and Imtiaz Ali, so it deserved to make a re-appearance on my top list. then there’s that odd music album from established composers Vishal-Shekhar that got released this month, one that reminded me of Amit Trivedi’s No One Killed Jessica that released at the same period last year. Hard-hitting, experimental, requiring tough singing performances from the likes of Javed Bashir, Usha Uthup, Sukhwinder Singh and even Amitabh Bachchan, don’t miss this one.
