Silambattam(Tamil,Yuvan Shankar Raja)

Already a remix in a soundtrack is a demeanor of a kind,but here there are 2 remixes!!..Why does the pusillanimous director actually give his assent to do remixes?!..Both the remixes,Nalamdhana and Vechukava are an assault on your senses due to the very fact that they are remixes and that both of them are crooned by our dear Simbhu!!..The hero worship track Tamizh endra naan is incredulously hackneyed and boring but is considerably better than the remixes though!!..If there is any reason for u to give this soundtrack a listen,it is because of the last two tracks!..Machan Machan is very addictive with its pleasing arrangements and Ilaiyaraja's vocals only adds to the feel of the song!..And the last track,Where is the Party is a breathtaking effort by the composer to give a strangely western appeal to a supposed Kuthu track.And it works big time particularly due to the instantly appealing backgrounds and entertaining lyrics!!..Barring 2 Yuvan'ish hot tracks,Silambattam is very stale!..Looks like Yuvan has to get rid of Simbhu just as A.R.Rahman has to get rid of S.J.Suryah!!...
