I Find The Strangest Things To Love

Was in Karachi recently. Caught these guys on TV. And immediately fell in love. Pakistani contemporary music is soooo underrated.

They are so unknown, that when I asked a few Pakistani colleagues about this group, they actually responded with, "Are they a Pakistani band?". I even had a vigorous discussion with the CD shop owner in my hotel, who *insisted* there was no such band(he looked in 3 stores, apparently), handed me a CD of a group called Mizmaar instead, and then had the cheek to say that I had gotten their name wrong! I NEVER get a name wrong!

Nonsense.

I'll be going back again, and taking this video to prove it to him. HARH.
That will be my mission in Karachi, to *find* this CD!

Well, besides doing actual work, that is....
