I’ve been listening to Alesana ever since an ex-colleague introduced them to me back in 2007, and recently I’ve been spinning their newer stuff on my playlist. One thing that amazes me is that despite a few lineup changes, they’ve stuck to and continue to play music in the same vein as their original stuff. They’re probably the epitome of ‘don’t fix it if it isn’t broken’ in the post-hardcore scene.

Movie Review: Spectre
It’s been four years since I’ve done a movie review, but what the heck.

Everyone is allowed to have their own opinion about the movie but I felt that the latest James Bond didn’t deserve all the panning it received. So after reading scathing reviews and general disappointment from people on my newsfeed about Spectre, I decided to write my own review of the movie.
To set the tone for this review – I’m not a James Bond fan. I don’t hate the films or anything, I just don’t love them or follow them religiously. I’ve only seen a handful of Bond movies and I even missed Skyfall. I also didn’t have any set expectations to what the movie should be beyond it being an entertaining spy flick.

Gig #90: Coffee + Chords 2
I’ll be performing again tomorrow at Grind22 in Bangsar. It starts at 8:00pm and I’ll be performing alongside Endee Ahmad, Hilmy Amim, and Ian Tai. It’s a pretty chill coffee place, come for drinks and music if you’ve got the time!
Gig #89 was an open mic night at Rougeur 2 weeks ago. Pretty cool place, though a bit hard to find and not really a gigging venue, but it’s always fun to be able to play at new places!
