Let’s swoop into what’s new this week!
KOMODO is radio and more via Apps, Satellite, Streams - check the bio! Let’s swoop into what’s new this week on Katie @katkills & Jongo @jonathangoehr shifts…
SLEEPSIDE @sleepsideband is the first band we have featured from Penang MALAYSIA! They hadn’t released any original songs since 2019, instead dribbling out some cool covers. But don’t think the guys have just been cruising it, they have been working on focusing their craft. Just out is the crazy melodic “The End”, and Aliff’s @aliffsalihin89 lyrics rip at your heart! “The End” is the first of a bunch of new tracks on the way - listen out for it on KOMODO.
From Yogyakarta, INDONESIA, MANIFRUSTASI @manifrustasi_official are self-described “pop males” dealing with their quarter-life crisis - woo dudes, it’s good thinking to allow music to be your therapy. “Lalu Lintas Cerita” is one of those relaxing indie tracks that KOMODO loves to spin at sunrise and sunset - it’s beautiful, it's chill, and we play it to let your heart rate stabilise just before we….
…dive headfirst into hell and embark on a journey of darkness and redemption to overcome purgatory. SINGAPORE’s WHERE THE DEAD GATHER @wherethedeadgather draws upon a whole spectrum of metal influences to entertain both the living and the dead. Rott, Ash, Hybrid and Razmy are known from bands including DEATH DEFYERS, ORIGIN OF DEATH, AL GRANDE TERRORISMO, G.O.D, KRANKY DOODLE and more. From the hands of Satan himself (herself?) their debut single “The Drop” is growling on KOMODO.
Come back - leave hell behind for a bit! …
Toscasoda @toscasoda from Tangerang, INDONESIA has dropped off to us a massive press kit for their EP “ill at ease”. WOOO, this is WONDERFUL indie pop! We are going to work our way through all four tracks over the next few months, and today we kick it all off with “Idlya” - so cheerful - so energetic! We love the EP cover artwork and the included band photos show them to be super dreamy – it seems that in Tangerang guys wear spectacles and gals don’t?
KOMODO’s art is by Bali’s @rickybilly50 – download the posters each week from our website!
