Dead Flowers

Well when you're sittin back, in your rose pink Cadillac Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day, I'll be in my basement room, with a needle and a spoon. And another girl to take my pain away -Jagger/Richards

Indie (and general) music coverage in Hindustan Times

The supplement in the Bombay edition of Hindustan Times every Tuesday has one page dedicated to music. The page generally consists of articles taken from various foreign newspapers along with some written by in house journalists like Hazra. And the good part is that whoever selects (guess that is Inderjeet Hazra) the articles thinks a bit differently. A bit away from the mainstream.

Over the period of six months I have read write ups on artists like Mars Volta, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Kanye West, David Gray, Kings of Leon, Artic Monkeys to name a few. These artists are pretty big abroad, but are relatively lesser known here in India.

It is always good when people with good musical taste and awareness work for national newspapers.
