xx

We're really excited to have our THIRD Heavy show happening this Saturday with some really COOL bands plus a rising star from the States (yeah we know McKenzie Eddy's not heavy but she's very original!) 鬍鬚女 aka Wu So Lui will be an eye-opener too! 

我們很興奮,因為星期六是Underground 第三場重型音樂會,有一流的樂隊加上來自美國的新星 ﹣McKenzie Eddy 玩的音樂絕非重型,但十分原創 ﹣ 還有鬍鬚女(Wu So Lui) 必讓大家大開眼界!

See you at ROCKSCHOOL this Saturday 8th May from 8:30pm onwards!    All seven acts for the great price of HK$100 (includes ONE Asahi beer!)

五月 八日,星期六晚見!表演晚上八時半開始,入場費只需一百元,就可看到七隊樂隊的精彩演出,還送一支Asahi 啤酒!

Compilation CD3  雜錦碟 3
Released in April 2010!


Asahi






















We celebrated the release of our third compilation with two release parties last month.   Thanks to everyone who came and danced and cheered!  Thanks again to Cathay Pacific, Nokia, HMV, Tom Lee Music, Hard Rock Hotel Macau and SilverBlack card for providing great prizes.

上個月我們舉行了兩場發行音樂會慶祝第三張合輯推出。感謝各位到來盡情跳舞歡呼!我們亦多謝國泰、諾基亞、HMV、通利、澳門Hard Rock 酒店及SilverBlack Card 送出豐富禮品。

If you STILL don't have a copy of this third great compilation, you can pick up a copy from Hong Kong Records, CD Warehouse, HMV (from 10 May 2010), The Wanch and at all The Underground events.   Also available at CD Baby online for our overseas friends.

還未有我們的合輯?不要緊,合輯在五月十日開始在香港唱片,CD Warehouse, 及HMV有售。我們亦會在The Wanch 及所有The Underground 的活動中發售此合輯。海外的朋友亦可在CD Baby online 購買。

Bands include  樂隊包括: Amino Shower, Eve of Sin, Good Fellas, Hungry Ghosts, In Love & Pain!, Killer Soap, Logo, One Last Fall, The Sleeves, Uranus, Very Ape and ZoundZ.

===================================
For those who may have missed it: all 12 bands were interviewed by our own Shashwati and we have the FULL interview online here  Next week we'll have the Chinese translation too!

Excerpts:


Zoundz: It was a great experience to record for the 1st time in Mark One. We've learn a lot from Koya because his professional skill and fast judgment. Also the unforgettable ash-tray beside his monitor-screen

Uranus: We changed drummers mid-stream. Not because the old drummer was particularly bad. He was just extremely hairy and looked scarily similar to Joaquin Phoenix during the "bearded phase". So, we brought in Dom.
Handy guide to Hong Kong bands!

How can you sift the good bands from the bad bands?

初來 報到?

還沒 有摸熟本地樂隊的圈子?

那你 大概需要看看我們的"樂隊指南"了。


Well for nearly six years, at all our events, we've had reviewers come and watch the bands perform and then write their honest reviews.  Some reviews are better than others, some longer than others but all honest.

六年 以來,我們都會邀請不同的樂評家為我們每一隊演出樂隊撰寫樂評。每個樂評家的觀點都不盡相同,但我可以肯定的一點是,他們都盡心為大家帶來最準確,不偏不倚的評論。


Our website has over 300 bands reviewed (and a sprinkling of overseas bands too!) to share with you.  Many of the bands performing this month are listed in our reviews:
