Agents Of Abhorrence

Grindcore trio from Melbourne featuring members of My Disco, Cut Sick, and Barbage Guts. The My Disco dude plays guitar and it still has the mathrock feel, which reminds me of snapcase/my disco...with blastbeats. i define this kind of music as "post-grindcore" lol.

Ghaust

another video taken and edited by me, Ghaust, a dynamic post-metal duo from Jakarta, playing one of their instrumental songs "Sleep And Release" live at rossi fatmawati. the live version is kinda different with the one you usually heard on their cd. this one has blastbeats followed by a pretty cool reverb loop ambience at the end of the song. lol.

For The Flames Beneath Your Bridge

For The Flames Beneath Your Bridge, mathcore, hardcore, chaotic hardcore, metalcore, southern rock, etc you name it. I've known this band since 2006 when myspace was still a sidestream social networking (in indonesia). There's this myspace forum group named "J-Town Hardcore" where i met a lot of cool people and bands from the local hardcore scene and "For The Flames Beneath Your Bridge" is one of them. They used to wore some fashioncore stuffs like white belt, emo haircuts, and girljeans. I've also listened to their earlier stuff (i forgot the title but it has a long song title), it sounds like From Autumn To Ashes or such. But things are changing, their debut album titled "LXX.VII" is just released months ago. The newer stuff reminds me of Converge and Norma Jean with a southern rock influence. Awesome. and finally i have a chance to saw them live for the first time last saturday at the event "In Loving Memory Of Joneh (1982-2010)" (R.I.P. Brother) in Rossi, Jakarta. I recorded their song "Gluttony". Check it out.

Racetraitor

do you like fueled by ramen records? do you like decaydance? do you like fall out boy? do you like pete wentz? do you give a shit about pete wentz's dick? Racetraitor was a straight edge metallic hardcore band that existed in the 90's which contained xPete Wentzx on bass (well he's just a fill in bass player though). their music is characterized with an abundance of noise and blast beats.

Gracias Olsen

Gracias Olsen is a shoegaze/bossa/pop/post-rock/sigur rós-esque kind of band, led by singer-songwriter and guitarist Anom Prakoso, from Bandung. The band was started in 2007, as a side project of Anom Prakoso with a venture from Space Opera. The name Gracias Olsen is derived from Icelandic band, Sigur Rós. Gracias Olsen referred originally only to Anom Prakoso , as he originally intended it to be a solo project. However, he eventually focused his efforts on the band, so it became the name of the band. Check out the band's blog, last.fm and facebook.

The Evens

a D.C. "husband and wife" indie rock duo consisting of Ian Mackaye (Fugazi, Minor Threat, Teen Idles, Embrace, Skewbald/Grand Union, Egg Hunt, etc.) and Amy Farina (The Warmers, Ted Leo and The Pharmacists). I think Ian Mackaye's kinda desperate in looking for a girlfriend, he took a girl from his little brother's band lol. By the way, The Washington Post has described the sound as "what happens when post-hardcore becomes post-post-hardcore."

Carissa's Wierd

Carissa's Wierd (Weird being deliberately mispelled) was an indie rock band from Seattle. Mat Brooke and Jenn Ghetto formed Carissa’s Wierd in 1995, and released three albums before their 2003 breakup. Some people classified their genre as "sadcore", which is (according to wikipedia) an infrequently employed subgenre term used by music journalists to describe examples of alternative rock characterised by bleak lyrics, downbeat melodies and slower tempos. LOL @ bleak lyrics, so what's the difference between emocore and sadcore? Maybe i should invent a new genre too named "sorrowcore" or maybe "crycore" perhaps? LOL. Mat Brooke and Ben Bridwell later went on to form Band of Horses.

Dischord is a fucking amazing record label ever. I like all of dischord bands. Including Jawbox, another D.C.'s post-hardcore outfits. Formed in 1989 and broke up in 1997. And also reunited for one night in 2009 (9th December @ Late Nite With Jimmy Fallon). This was their first show since early 1997.
