Lunarin: Tuning out the world
Saturday, 14 January 2012 12:07
Fans of local indie music will be no strangers to Lunarin. The power packed trio comprises of Linda Ong on bass and vocals, guitarist Ho Kah Wye and Loo Eng Teck, drummer/pianist. Part progressive rock, accentuated with unyielding metal influences and branded with Linda's distinctive vocals, Lunarin has proved its mettle not only in its staying power, but also in carving out a niche in the scene with a definitive sound that cannot be easily mistaken. It really does not matter what you drink to Lunarin, as long as you rock out.

Some of you may have seen the video below floating about on Facebook this week, often accompanied with a caption " ABUDEN?".
Abuden:
Same as 'duh'.
As in: Boy says to girl: I am a boy. Girl says: Abuden. Gosh. Boys are idiots.
Quite a few viewers have also taken to the song that was played at the end of the video. ""ABUDEN?" brought me here."often pops up in the comments section on Darren Ashley's facebook.
I don't know about Mr Ashley but I would count such a referral as a WIN.
The catchiest hooks are often the simplest ones. From the get go, the song "If I don't Stay" brings on the party with a hearty mix of live instruments and electronic sounds bouncing to an infectious beat. Yet if you are the kind to bother with the lyrics, it is also an uplifting song about standing your ground in the face of adversity, perfect accompaniment to crushing "ABUDEN?" moments or for a b boy to do the Naomi Campbell Walk to.
