Received this in our email a while back, and sorry for the late post (busy cari makan).

Anyways, the boys of Sphere recently released their first single, Thunder, at Urbanscapes 2010, and is available through their Myspace at RM3 or by donation at their shows. Definitely an act to catch live!

Have a listen to it below.

Now I’m Gonna Take A Vacation

At every turn, Furniture attempts to strike that elusive balance between bold invention and comforting familiarity in its music. Venturing into spaces described as post-rock, shoegaze and avant-pop, the band never strays far from being artful, honest, sweeping and emotional.

Two years in the making, Furniture released its debut album Twilight Chases the Sun to unanimous critical acclaim by the press and fans alike, some proclaiming it the local independent release of 2005.

Furniture is currently in the studio recording their sophmore album. This session, was recorded live at Urbanscapes 2009.

Coming To Hearts Near You

From the coastal city of Klang, comes this 4 piece post emo band consisting of members from several active hardcore bands. Though not as active as their hardcore counterparts, they consider The Dearly Missed to be their main band (not a side project) and are preparing to release some new material by the end of 2009.

The Dearly Missed braved the hot tropical sun of KLPAC during Urbanscapes 2009 to record this session.

A Constant Reminder
