You must have heard BLEACH @bleachtodeath on KOMODO, we spin “No Regret” and “Treat The Disease” EVERY day! Now the guys from Bandung INDONESIA have teamed up with neighbourhood Hip-Hoppers THE COUCH CLUB @thecouchclub_to drop a split EP - “Intermezzo”. Released as a cassette in Jakarta and Bandung it’s also available in digital…
… “Intermezzo” is phenomenal! A total of 5 tracks, the first two being hardcore BLEACH. A joint mid-way 90-second transition then drops us into the urban sounds of THE COUCH CLUB. KOMODO loves every single song and all are on air from today. It’s not fair to pick a favourite (because all are so amazing) - but how GREAT is THE COUCH CLUB’s “It’s Me Again”.
Since we are already here in Bandung INDONESIA, let’s just check in with our favourite EMO’ers from the city - THE GREY FIELD @thegreyfield. KOMODO has been playing “Lost Myself” for the last few months and now the guys are out with “At The Present Time”. A story of past longing and experiences, the track explores inner conflict and the restlessness of life. You might think “At The Present Time” is going to be a bit melancholy, NOPE, the song smashes you in the face from the first beat! It’s going to be a dance classic!
Three singles, all with cover art featuring Toyko’s Nippon denpatō radio tower. The band is called “Banzai Oisuita” (Battle Oyster?) - Japanese - right? Umm nope. BANZAI OISUITA @banzaioisuita are a melodic punk band from SINGAPORE! Obsessed with girlfriend crushes they are about to go steady with KOMODO - listen out for “Gadis Jelita” (Beautiful Girl), “Connie” and “Ciumman Mu” (Kiss You).
KOMODO’s art is by Bali’s @rickybilly50 – download the posters each week from our website!
