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。


For well over eight 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. 

Audience

八年以來,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 350 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:  我們的網站已經有過三百五十隊本地樂隊的樂評 (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:

 

22Cats 

Blaster

ChoChukmo

Halcyon

Hazden

Helter Skelter

Hungry Ghosts

Jukator

Killer Soap

Kisses from my Grandpa

Kolor

Little Fat Pig (小肥豬)

Modern Children

This Saturday 30th June!
六月三十日 - 又有Underground show!

 

30 June 2012   

 

 

It's gonna be dark, bleak, desperate, intense and
far-out.

It also just so happens that it's gonna sound bloody great and gonna be tonnes of fun.
What's this you ask?
The Medullary Paralysis are coming to HK all the way from Italy once again, and they're making a stop with the Underground. With their deep, dark yet handsome music they'll carry you willingly into the 90s mixed with the 80s. To help them with their agenda, we have Vrank, the Manson-inspired heavy rockers, and the "Future-music" electronica of Blak.
It's gonna be lots of great music, and supplemented by lots of beer as well.
So mark 30th June down on your calendars as a night for some gothically oriented fun...

該晚將會是黑暗、荒涼的一夜......

The Medullary Paralysis樂隊將會再次由意大利來臨香港為Underground演出 。他們音樂中的黑暗深邃美學會帶領大家回到八、九十年代的美好時光。當晚還有Vrank樂隊為大家演出其Manson式重型搖滾及Blak樂隊的未來主義電音。

有好音樂, 當然不缺酒水。請記得六月三十日晚到場感受黑暗gothic的刺激!
