Band’s Inspirations :
Although the members have slightly different tastes
of music but their common sound is towards the kind
of rock music which deviates from the otherwise popular
metallic rock.
The band covers some songs of bands like Green Day
( their most cherished band ) , sum 41 , Red Hot Chilli
peppers , Good Charlotte, The Ramones .The inspirations
are bands like Rolling Stones and Sex Pistols. Jimmy
Hendrix has been Kanishk’s special inspiration.
Band’s own songs:
1. SOS ( save our souls ) :
SOS is about someone standing at the last moments
of his life, remembering what he’s been through,
and wants to be testified for his goods and bad and
is calling Jesus to come and save his soul.
2. Fuel:
Fuel is a typical punk rock song and is about how
guys get ditched by girls in college.
3. Hitler’s Cross:
This is a jumpy track, emphasizing the Hitler’s-mentality
still prevalent in this world.
4. 3-Chord Monkeys:
This song is about guys who, against all odds, do
not deviate from their passion, which is music , and
end up forming a band.
5. Frankenstein:
Frankenstein goes out for all the self-centered politicians.
Continuing with the punk and grunge form of music
with a little of Rock n’ Roll sprint, the band
is performing in gigs in and around Chandigarh
