The Inner Core
"They have a towering, thick metal sound, and definitely belong to the musical generation that grew up with thrash rather than 'heavy metal'. This is seen not only in the music, but also in their stage manner - they go for an imposing yet detached demeanour, thoroughly involved in their own music, yet clever enough to engage the audience by challenging them.."

Handy Guide to Hong Kong bands!
Live Performance Reviews
New to Hong Kong? Or just new to the live music scene? 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 over seven 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.
七 年以來，我們邀請不同的樂評人為在Underground演出的每一隊樂隊撰寫樂評。每位樂評人的觀點都不盡相同，但可以肯定的一點是，他們都盡心為大家帶來最準確、最不偏不倚的評論。 Our website has over 325 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: 的網站已經有過三百隊本地樂隊的樂評 (還有曾在Underground演出的外地樂隊！），包括將於本月演出的幾隊樂隊： 9 Maps Corey Tam Edmund Leung

In Hong Kong, two of the bands on CD4 -
Dark Himaya
Corey Tam
will be selling this CD4 at their upcoming gigs.
We have a feature about the songs on the CD here. Read about which band wrote a song initially as a love ballad yet now its a bitch about ex-s!
By the end of May, we will have the CD (entitled "Come On...Blaze Ahead..!") in HMV and other select music shops around town.
香港的朋友, 兩支出現於CD4的樂隊 - Dark Himaya及 Corey Tam - 均會於他們快將上演的音樂會中售賣 CD4。

Out of the ground and into your phone! The Underground HK now has an iPhone app!
衝出地下！The Underground HK推出iPhone app！ |  | |
Hong Kong, August 1, 2011 -
The Underground, Hong Kong's premier indie music showcase, took on nine of the best local innovators, entrepreneurs and programmers to win the city's first-ever Battle of the Apps contest, organized by Hong Kong's premier internet networking community, Web Wednesday.
The Underground's app - presented by founder Chris B (AKA, the godmother of Hong Kong's indie music scene) - won over the voting audience with its user-friendly graphics and entertaining content.
The iPhone-friendly program plays new music; publicizes bands and upcoming shows; presents news from The Underground; and more. The software was created by Mangrove Giant, the Hong Kong-based applications developer whose game Kill Kill Monster Campaign entered the Top 100 in 66 countries last year and sold over 100,000 copies.
The Battle of the Apps contest, which featured video and live presentations, took place at Volar on July 20th in front of more than 170 guests and members of the Internet and digital media community. Apps on display included a city food locator, a guide to buying local property, a Chinese learning tool, a location-based gaming platform, a rugby match analyzer, a photo sharing network and a smart phone function that automatically shuts down WiFi to save battery power.
