Update on my life now. I'm in my 20s already. Time sure flies when you're not keeping track of it.
You know, when I was in the army, I actually considered going back to Brunei to pick up my life where I left off. I'm feel glad that I didn't really. Sure I miss my friends and all, but at the same time I didn't think there was anything left for me to do there.
Most of the guys went off to study in foreign lands getting on with their own lives. I guess deep down, the only reason I'd move back to Brunei is to fulfill the fantasy of being a teenager again.
My life's peachy. I've got a handful of a nephew and a darling of a niece to play with almost everyday, a beautiful girlfriend who I'd go to the moon and back for but she still thinks she's not good enough for me, and me being able to fit into skinny jeans. I tell you, you haven't lived until you've squatted in a pair. And I'm in a band that has hopes of getting it far so here's looking forward to that. I'm starting to pick the drums up again, it's about time I pick the sticks up again. I still sing more though, can't run away from that can I?
I guess I've changed somewhat over the years, but I'm still the same. Wait, what?

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 10/21/2006
Band Website: http://zahir.tumblr.com
Band Members: Me, basically.
And also, I've decided to start on a project where I invite anybody out there to add on to my music. One voice and one guitar sure sounds lonely sometimes. This idea came about when an ex-bandmate of mine took I've Got Our Innocence Right Here and put in his own lead riffs. After recording it he sent it over and the rest is history.
Who knows, if I like what you've put on there, in the future if I ever have an acoustic set, I'll call you down and we'll make a night out of it.
Influences: Of all the things I listen to, I am currently listening to a lot of Saosin, Secret and Whisper, Motion City Soundtrack, The Almost, and some Senses Fail. So yeah.
Individual-wise, it's Anthony Green, no question.
Sounds Like: I consider my music to be more folksy at most. It's a huge contrast to the kind of music my bands play.
Just something you won't really listen to until much later I guess.
Record Label: Unsigned

Regarding the originals

I know they're not perfect. I must've done about a million takes before I got one that's has the least mistakes. Thanks for listening to them anyway!
