Since I listen to k-indie way more than I listen to k-hip hop (or kpop for that matter) I decided that this was a logical thing to do

There's a ton of really great indie music being released every week so hopefully this will get it some more appreciation!

thanks for posting this!

i liked Boohwal's new vocalist, but he doesn't have the same raw power of Jung dongha's voice..

mte on Boohwal, it isn't quite the same (still good though!)

Thanks OP. Bookmarking this to listen later. Honestly I can't even keep track of music releases. There's just a deluge of songs to catch up on every week.

So does anyone know any sites where I can find grittier K-indie/rock artists? A lot of the sites I used to frequent are pretty much gone now. Last K-rock album I got was from Lowdown30 :(

idk if you use torrents but asiatorrents has some uploaders that are up to date with recent kindie stuff
also there's http://cmkpop.blogspot.com/ and http://www.otonomai.net (but this site is mostly jpop-oriented)

I discovered Vanilla Acoustic totally by hasard a while back, but it's hard to keep up with k-indie. Where do you gather all those news ? Thanks a lot ! I'll listen to the other songs later. I'm glad there are people sharing non-idol related music on Omona, it's always interesting, and refreshing somehow !
