I don’t know if anybody’s been following Look Busy Do Nothing but they are making some serious waves on the gigging circuit and they are fairly popular on the internet as well, as demonstrated by a mention on the Hindustan Times.

The Hindustan Times Mention

The following is a video of the band doing Emotionalogic live. It is all improvisation. It is people like these guys that force you to rethink your opinion on the way things are with the Pakistani Music Scene. I mean these guys are so talented yet the Media is still hung up on Shoaib Malik potentially scoring with Saniya Mirza but then again they are only supposed to appeal to the Burger demographic. :P Yes, the author of the above article was probably toking on some anally regurgitated marijuana while he wrote it. I mean the aftertaste of the realization that the guy screwed up must have been rather distasteful. Nevertheless, this earns an awesome Pakistani band a mention on the most widely read Indian newspaper.

Look Busy Do Nothing

Look Busy Do Nothing is an experimental outfit based in Karachi. The band includes Talha Asim Wynne, Daniel Arthur Panjwaneey (of Messiah fame) and Kayzad Giara. They play a brand of psychedelic rock very similar to artists associated with the neo-psychedelia movement of the 80s, with some shoegaze undertones.

I have been meaning to do a profile on these guys for quite some time now but I never really could get around to doing it until today.  They have got quite a lot of achievements under their belt and one of them includes a major Pink Floyd Tribute at the Base Rock Cafe. They also have themselves a music video.

Talha Asim of the band has been regularly having his music posted on Shoegazer Alive and Homemade Lo-fi Psychedelic and his music has also gotten airplay on Air Atlantic Radio, an underground station.

Go ahead and check these guys out! Definitely worth your while!
