Do you feel familiar with Jakarta’s EMO?

EMO in Jakarta, Indonesia, which arrived in the baggage from Waterslide Records, the sound source released in 2017. The label info said, “If you listen to this band without knowing it, you’ll definitely mistake it for a US band,” but I’d rather say “it’s like a Japanese band.” I had an impression. Perhaps it’s a physical place, and it may be the voice or the texture of the performance that comes from something like the physique and skeleton of Asians. In the case of metal and Screamo bands, there are many bands of Southeast Asian origin that are very hot as if they were playing in a basement that is not air-conditioned, and it is also a crowded small room, so I thought that was good , This band doesn’t have that kind of element, but rather has a sophisticated urban feel … maybe Jakarta.
