Yes Fm ALL-STARZ……..Making Of The Ultimate Band
Rip My Throat, Drink My Blood,
Strangle Me, Drown Me,
Give Me Vain And Give Me Pain,
Knives Running Through Me,
Oh, Master Of Wounds – Cut Me
Chase Me, Waste Me,
Leave Me In Your Arms
Cold Hands, Fingers Like Razors,
Break My Neck, Put Out My Light,
Crush My Hope, Rape My Life
Cut Me, Hurt Me, Cut Me, Hurt Me…
Cut Me, Cut Me, Cut Me, Cut Me,
Take My Life, Kill Me And Kill Me
A famous Black Metal band did a track called “Death – Pierce Me”.The above thoughts was going through my mind when i was watching Yes Fm All Starz. The bands that murdered music was Code red , Purple People and Mean green machine.
The Only All Star was Mr Aruna Siriwardena,he was the only person who was making some sense,he took no prisoners when he made comments. Some people who came to watch the show wasn’t that happy about the truth that was dished out by him,but he gave a reality check to all who attended the event. Raj Seneviratne and the other lady was sugar-coating all the shit that was dished out by the bands. The only great performance was by Naadro….and guess what they where the guest act. And “smoke on the water” was performed by mean green machine which was okay considering the other horrible performances.”Rosanna” & “Gimme Hope Joanna” was performed by “purple people”,i think that was one of the worst performances i ever heard….they just destroyed 2 classics. The female vocalist sounded like William Hung performing “She Bangs” on American idol. I expected more from Kushal.All bands had horrible song choices. So lets hope for the best when MGM records there CD in the near future.

True. I was rooting for MGM but their first song gave me the chills (the scary ones) but i must say they caught up with their second song ‘faith’ and definitly nailed it with ’smoke on the water’. And as mr.aruna siriwardana commented ’smoke on the water’ was the song of the night and the song that was to be beat. Anyway they are young and carefree and i hope they’d cring themselves up to become a prominent force in the music scene in the future. Good luck to them. Purple people were the ‘to-be winners’ uptil the finals where they raped the three songs ‘november rain’ included. And in my opinion those three songs they covered weren’t finalist material for a pop-rock band competition. bad choices guys. Code red was stable, not too good not too bad thruout but at the finals proved to be less competition for the other two bands. But i liked hotal california. But all in all from the performances at the finals MGM deserved to win. Good luck to them all.
