NEPATHYA - Bhedako oon Jasto!

27 December

don simrik atelier 2003

A revolutionary new folk-rock album coming from the Katmandu music scene, Bheda ko oon jasto (Like sheep's wool) is surely the next big thing in world music, or at least has the potential to become just that. The tracks are lined with highly adventurous guitar riffs accompanied by authentic Nepali percussion instruments. Amrit Gurung's vocals alternate between madly energetic and devilishly thought-provoking - as do his lyrics. Seriously, this is one heck of an album coming out from Nepal. Every single track is a potential hit, from the sleepy last track to the wild Bheda ko oon Jasto. We wish Nepathya the best of luck.
