I may be pre-empting it here, but it seems that the new Fuzon album is going to be a bit of a disaster. I guess it all started when they began composing jigles for hard-boiled candy (the candyland fuzon toffee i think it was called) which made then few friends, especially as they held Jami--who is considered to be one of pakistan's best video directors, including the much acclaimed, strings dhaani--to his contract and forced him to make the 'branded' video to go with the song.
He was obviously disgusted, and to anyone who would care to listen, he would describe in excruciating detail-how fame had gone to the band's head, and this was the guy who really put Fuzon on the map, with Akhian, long before Saqib Malik came along with his opus Khamaj.
The other problem was perhaps that given the very specialized genere that Fuzon has been exploring, they are obviously constraigned in what they can come up with. Although the debut album was diverse, it did leave an aftertaste of .. well this striking resemblence between the songs.
And now the the video for a new song, from the upcoming album had just been put online at muziq.net, and its very very dissapointing.
Pretty much the same stuff that you found in most of the songs from the last albums, only a little more trepid, cliched and slightly bollywoodesque - as far as tawdry poetry anyways- i had to switch off when he started crooning ' teri khushboo yuunn sataati humeein..'
