With the launch of their
fourth album Dhaani, Strings have proved their
metal in the world of pop music. Dhaani, the
first song of the album is a blend of Faisal's
groovy voice and
Bilal Maqsood's guitars. Next in line is "Najany
Kyon". It's a soft number, which is definitely
going to give you the signature sound of
Strings. "Kahany Mohabat ki" and "Mera Bichara
Howa Yaar" are no doubt my favourite songs. I
have already heard them more than a hundred
times. The best thing about these songs is
that they aren't exactly slow but they both
give you the same soothing feeling. "Sohniye",
a very unique and extremely jumpy number, is a
treat to listen to. "Bolo Bolo" features Hari
Haren and 'Paal' featuring Sagarika has
excellent background music and lyrics. "Chaaye
Chaaye" is the liveliest . The video of this
song is pretty baffling. "Mitti" is an average
song, with nothing extraordinary to offer.
HKHJ is a new version of the World Cup song
that we all have heard.
Bilal Maqsood composes all
the songs and the lyrics are penned by Bilal's
father Anwer Maqsood Dhaani, is the only song
written by Zehra Nigah.
In a nutshell, this album
can be regarded as another creative success of
Strings.
