On June 12th, Thornapple will release their long awaited 2nd album, (이상기후) Abnormal Climate. This is the M/V for title track (낯선 열대) Strange Tropics.
I’m bad with assigning genres but Thornapple is Alternative Rock? There are psychedelic influences that are apparent in some songs more than others and I swear I hear some traditional korean musical influences too. Thornapple’s music is sensitive, atmospheric, melodic, emotive, explosive, experimental, and if you give them a listen some different words may come to mind.
If you think Thornapple sounds good in studio recordings, let me tell you that they sound even better live. (I've never caught them live in Hongdae, but there's plenty of HD front-row fancams on Youtube, yay.) Yoon Seonghyun is ridiculously talented. His extremely flamboyant and raw stage mannerisms coupled with his expressive vocal delivery take the performances above and beyond.
(물가의 라이온) Lion On The Shore
Totally into that weird eye thing he does.
