First I need to take a break from MV reviews. There's 5-6 more I want to write. Anyway, people love to bitch about idol music (everyone on this blog is guilty of this at some point) but no one knows where to look for other music or don't know who to listen to.
I posted this song just because I think indie rock would most likely be more accessible to the readers here than hiphop, but who knows. Leave your suggestions in the comments below. Everyone gets tired of idol music at some point or simply just need a break from idol music, which is why I wrote this.
Whoa, the singer looks like Hyomin. That's a plus.
ReplyDeleteI'll add a recommendation for people who like normal indie (for lack of a better description): Standing Egg.
Hmm... I like it :)
ReplyDeleteAny other recommendations?
Check this blog out for Korean indie. Just found it myself. It also posts/lists Korean hiphop as indie, so don't get confused at seeing Leessang on there.

When it's k-indie then I absolutely love LOVEHOLIC. Her voice is so gorgeous and the music has a nice feeling. All of their songs sound like anime songs lol. I recommend their songs loveholic, blue 923 and sad story :) All of them are good though imo. Nell's okay too.
ReplyDeleteIf it's k-soul then it's the unknown tom-tom, ali, and dia. They are all gorgeous singers (although dia's music is kinda something awful).
^ Jisun (former vocalist of Loveholic) is a solo artist. You should check out some of her songs.

Also, i know Sunny Hill is an idol group. But... I they dont quite follow trends, as such other KPOP groups do, so, i count them out of Idol groups, Also, they dont do variety shows or anything. Also, they have actual talent...
