Abuse the Youth
MySpace.com - Abuse The Youth
Abuse the Youth have built an enviable reputation since forming in 2006. These 3 Bangkok residents, Mick (guitar/vocals) Ju (drums) and Toonz (bass) know all too well how to capture and enthrall their audience. With a powerful guitar driven sound, their songs of love and loss, hope and despair are presented with such raw power and authority that they draw fans from both the indie and metal scenes. This was most evident at Thailands Fat Festival 2007 where they drew a huge crowd of indie kids and metal heads. Their growing popularity has seen them playing shows in Malaysia as well as touring across Thailand with 100 Rock and Mind the Gap. In addition to this they can regularly be caught playing shows in their hometown Bangkok.
Abuse The Youth were voted "Best New Band" at Thailand Headbanger 2008 and have been nominated for "Best Newcomer" at this years prestigious Fat Radio Awards.
The band has been booked to play at Baybeats '08 in Singapore and will be playing at the renowned Crossboarders show on June 26th.
This year sees the band back in the studio recording their eagerly awaited debut album after releasing the well received "Accidental EPidemic" six track EP in 2007.
Armchair Critic
MySpace.com - Armchair Critic
Lush, haunting atmospheres, adrenaline-driven beats, quirky, crunchy guitars, infectious dance-to grooves- the kaleidoscope that is Armchair Critic was formed by 3 young men with completely different tastes, styles, attitudes and personalities.
Gelled together by a common thirst for soul-searching and self-expression through music and songs that everybody can identify with, RG, Visa and Boon are out to get you laughing, crying, dancing and pumping your fists to their brand of intense, catchy and honest music.
Expressing emotions and reason, chaos and clarity, warmth and apathy, Armchair Critic is living, growing, learning and loving every moment.
