Thai indie
Here are Tattoo Colour and Scrubb with their mixed idiosyncratic pomo rock style. They sound easy and passing atmosphere of a Bangkokian pub-restaurant of the young. I first encountered Fah (Tattoo's most popular song) on the bus just the day before I flew out of Bangkok to Berkeley. It was love at first hearing and then I googled the band from my fragmented memory of the lyric. I thought the vocal is quite awesome with his jazzy style and soon found out that the guitarist (Ruzzy) is also really talented and can really sing. (the vocal once gave a comment that the band could have only Ruzzy if he had ten arms because he composed and arranged his songs and could play any instrument). Anyway, the reason I like this band very much is probably because they capture the sensibility of the Thais of my age (and they are same years as mine).
The other band is Scrubb. I can't tell what their style is, but i like the fresh sound of acoustic guitar mixing with some instruments. somewhat like Brit pop, maybe?
