What's coming up in Malaysia..

Saying 'Malaysia' and 'live concert' in a same sentence and you will think "The Click Five" and "Backstreet Boys". Fear not, this year imo was one of the best years for great gigs. We had popular post-rock band, Explosions in the Sky coming to here and many indie kids scream their lungs out. Next month we going to have another 2 post rock bands coming to KL.

MONO
Mono is a band where epic music comes to mind. The songs, all of which are instrumental, are usually focused on layered guitar melodies. Strings and pianos are often found in some of their songs. They are also known for their powerful live shows (ZING!) and their complex guitar work. Too bad I can't go since there are so many barriers that make me not see them. =/
July 5th, Zouk.

Mono - Yearning
TOE
Another post rock band from Japan. I haven't heard of them but from what I have heard, they're good live. We'll see about that when they are here on Aug 3rd.

In other news, there is a rumour saying Death Cab For Cutie will be coming to KL around August. Hopefully the rumour will be true. =O

NP: No Age - Cappo
