Hey, i'm looking for some good korean emo-esque type bands, not really like nell, more underground, like bright eyes, or something. something whiney, if it exists...lol if anyone has any suggestions or can send me songs, cuz it really is hard to find. thanks, i searched the forums but didn't really see any similar topics. thanks.

Off the top of my head, try Hollow January. They're more screamo but they're amazing. There are a lot more emo bands but I have trouble remembering who's emo and who isn't. Popstore has gone emo I know. I think the Strikers are emo too.

[Antz]

there's korean emo bands? omfggg. that's freaking awesome.

[msmoore]

lol where can i download them...those sites REALLY confuse me...and i doubt i can find them on the main p2p thingies, any Bittorrent links? i looked through that bugz thing but that was no help...and niether was naver.

[payachan]

Vanilla Unity and Huckleberry Finn, that's all I know.
Plus, I dont really like their music.

Why wouldn't there be emo? It became so trendy in the US it had to make it here.

yeah... well its not part of the mainstream yet, which is something I find strange.

In order to become mainstream in Korea you have to be willing to sleep with a producer. I'm not sure if any of the emo bands here have that in them.

As I heard, Hollow Jan full length album will be released at December.

Personally, I'm very hyped about their music, because their live was really crazy screaming thing.


And personally, I recommend Bloody Cookie single - mini album very highly. I'd copy & paste description about their music from my store site.

-----------------------------------------------------

Bloody Cookie is 4 women band, who is playing mixture of Gothic Metal - Grunge - Nu Metal influence.

2nd. Mini single is somewhat different from 1st. single. More melodic, little bit less dim & dark. But it doesn't mean their music is another TV rock style. They are still walking in the line between Dark & Heavy - Mellow & Light, and it makes their music very special & unique. Their 2nd. work is another good successful job, walk in the middle of Heavy & LIght. And guitar riffs are more embossed, sometimes old school Metal Style, and it could appeal to even Pure Metal Fans. You might not find similar style to Bloody Cookie very easily, not only for Korean Rock but also for Western market.

Dear admin, if I can't post purchase link to my store, please let me know. I'd edit it.

My Aunt Mary- which is indie-emo-ish
T.A. Copy- indie

[RACETRAITOR]

It's a stretch to call Crying Nut emo.

[shadowkeeper]

It's a stretch to call Crying Nut emo.

Yeah. I was going for the indie catagory with them.

[uiyoltan]

A good band if you're into emo would probably be Same Old Story.

Well, if its for fame...

[RACETRAITOR]

I can't believe we all forgot Same Old Story. They are the most quintessential emo band in Korea.

[joonleex]

I dont think emo is cool..... if koreans go emo... that will be basically john teshed up... i already love their music right now... EVE is a interesting band... The Trax Rose had left -.- and this new gay guy named Roadkill Joined i mean like wtf..... Rose was like soo much cooler.

[Enjoi]
