They chose "A-sound " as a name, as the meaning the best sound. Everything in A is the best, even at the school A mark is the highest point, that's why they preferred letter " A ", and "Sound". " A-Sound " ( The Best Sound ).
Album and Works
A-Sound put out their debut album in July 2008: Release. It was the first Mongolian rock album to feature some songs in English. The album featured many popular songs, including: "Uyanga," "Shine On," and "Forever." "Uyanga" is a popular girl's name and is a pleasant song sung in Mongolian. "Shine On" and "Forever" are two slices of immaculate pop song-craft, and to music critic (among other things) Brian Offenther, should have been international pop smashes. In "Forever," lead singer Temuulen's crystal clear voice really sours. In early 2009, a deluxe version of Release was put out and featured two bonus live cuts. Later in 2009, A-Sound began recording a follow up album, but after becoming unsatisfied with the results, scraped it.
