Strings are an internationally acclaimed Pakistani pop rock band comprising two members from Karachi, Pakistan. The band was initially formed by four college students, Bilal Maqsood, Faisal Kapadia, Rafiq Wazir Ali and Kareem Bashir Bhoy in 1988. In 1992, the quartet disbanded only to make a comeback with two of its members, Bilal and Faisal later in 2000. While the initial band was riding on the new wave of Pakistani pop music, the later formation ushered a new revival in the music industry of Pakistan. The band were signed to a major record label EMI Records and afterwards released their self-titled debut album Strings in 1990. Their initial effort experimenting with synthesized sounds and rhythms was not recognized instantly although their debut album sold 20,000 copies in its first week on sale. After two years, the band released their second album 2 which included their critically acclaimed single "Sar Kiye Yeh Pahar", first aired on MTV Asia, led the band to achieve fame worldwide. After the release of their second studio album, the quartet disbanded in order to focus on their studies and careers. But it was only till 2000 when two of the band members, Bilal and Faisal, made a comeback by releasing the band's third album Duur which found renewed success and popularity for them. The band then went on to record and release its fourth album Dhaani in 2003. The album included the single "Najane Kyun" which featured as a soundtrack for the Hollywood film Spider-Man 2, this also led the band to follow the footsteps of Junoon and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and take their act across the border to India only to realize they already were a recognized band in the country as remixes of one of their earliest songs were played in clubs. In 2008, Strings came up with their fifth studio album Koi Aanay Wala Hai which included soundtrack singles "Zinda" and "Aakhri Alvida" from Bollywood movies, Zinda and Shootout at Lokhandwala. The album was a hit in both Pakistan and India having co-produced by Bollywood actor John Abraham.

Dateline Mesopotamia, 3500 B.C. That's when the multi-faceted sounds we call music got its humble beginnings. It seems clappers were sent out the the fields to scare evil spirits away. These clappers started getting into the beat of their duty and, bingo, you got drums. From there, horns, strings, reeds, the whole orchestral gestalt. So, born in staving off death, music continues to nourish us in a variety of forms as different as the colors of the spectrum.
