“Wormtamer” in its fast paced drumming, imposing basslines and swirling guitars by new Delhi-bred and Pune-based instrumental rock act Colorblind aka Kartik Mishra

A little about the artwork:

“The Free Flow Mon Ami Series is produced out of my apartment which is called Mon Ami. I happen to live with (and serve) two cats.

In this artwork, they represent the chaos in our lives. Chaos often acts as a deterrent and can fog your purpose. I'm always attempting to take stock of the chaos in my life and keep it in check so I can get to where I need to be.

This concept tied in seamlessly with Sajid Wajid Shaikh's take on American rubber hose animation from the 1920’s which served as a visual reference for the both of us. A lot of the narratives from those cartoons were often sombre as well.”

artwork for the cover sees cracked and warped marks around the model that represent time. Eyes are drawn with clocks instead of the pupil to suggest how time has gone in the blink of an eye. "For me, this cover issue represents organised chaos. I've also made a small illustration of the model next to her that shows the shift of an idea from a sketch to reality.

Melodic Death Metal Band from Mumbai

Eternal December is a progressive rock band from Navi Mumbai, formed in 2010.

The band has been active in the circuit playing various competitions such as Strawberry Fields,

Channel [V] Launchpad and numerous college-level Battle of the Bands.

This is soon to launch their debut EP Cover.

“Just This Once” plays with warmer, almost ‘older’ sounds to give it its vibe; and each song has a clear space it wants to take the listener to.

There are moments of relaxing, of kicking back, to moments that are a little more interesting and unexplored.

There are times of excitement and of agitation, and times of relief or maybe even self-loathing. 

A comment on the New Indian, who isn't all for Aam Aadmi Party,

Indian National Congress or event Bharatiya Janata Party.

He's politically driven, but doesn't shy away from anarchy either.

He wants a revolution, but is wary of noisemakers.
