Music Post #2

So today, cause i feel like it, i will post 3 groups i would like to introduce to ya'll :)

Jade Monkey

Jade Monkey is a group i stumbled upon when i was looking for guitar covers on some songs and their songs are a little mellow, like a happy kinda feel and its really not bad.
I just found the songs interesting and like the song 'Stab in the dark' the beat and guitar riffs really mesh well together.

Their from Sydney and the band consists of:
Dale Randolph - Lead Vocals / Bass
Nic Barker - Vocals / Guitar
Max Harris-Brassil - Vocals / Lead Guitar
Dane Voorderhake - Drums

The Next group i would want to recommand is
Bump of chicken.
This group has been the japanese charts alot of times and been around for a while.
I didnt like them at first but these days i started to re-listen to their songs, after i heard their song
'tomodachi(friend)'.
Some of their songs i could say is poetic, like their telling a story. The lyrical content isnt direct like they wont say their 'happy' but take a whole bunch of descriptive words and tell a story about happiness.
Like this song i am recommanding today called 'laugh maker'. It talks of a person who is crying and dosent want to be disturbed but a man called 'laugh maker' came along.
The other song that you all should listen to is 'K'. Honestly that song was heartbreaking but very meaningful. It is rare to find such composers these days who writes a song like a story, so do check them out.



Last artist i would like to recommand today is
Verbal Jint.
He is a korean rapper and he's been in the underground scene for a while but recently made light to the mainstream music by collaborating with well known artists.
This song 'you deserve better' is one of my fave songs from him.
The slow R&B feel with the vocals really match well and kinds of remind you of past R&B songs in the 90s.
The video itself is interesting because it shows of how verbal jint cannot stand the sight of the girl getting hurt but he cant do anything much but stay by her side because he is actually her pet dog.
The lyrics itself is also good. If you feel down and out from a recent rocky relationship well, you deserve better and this is a good pick up song for that.
Another song i would recommand from him would be 'bachelor monkey' that features zico from block b.
korean:

원숭이띠 미혼남 (Feat. ZICO Of Block B)
