Tapestry: An Invisble Boundary, A Set Distance
Yesterday Tapestry had their EP launch at Pink Noize and despite not being widely advertised because of some event issues, thank god the show still went on and it was a great turn-out. What I didn’t expect was to be completely blown away by the line-up. It’s like you’re going to a concert and the opening bands turn out to be just as good too?! Yup, it was definitely one of the best line-ups I’ve come across so far for a considerably small scale gig.
Their EP launch started out with Forests playing their songs -emo/punk rock/groovy feels with awesome guitar tapping skillz. They have some sort of mathematical sound without making you feel like cracking your brains out?! I love it when the vocalists sing both different octaves and lyrics together at the same time. They definitely ended their set right with Dakota.
Dakota, take me back to the ocean
Dakota, take me back to the east coast

Next up was Paint The Sky Red. Now, this band. I don’t think there’s anyone who wasn’t blown away by them. You know they say sometimes even though you’re in a crowd surrounded by people, you still feel alone? Well, Paint They Sky Red makes you feel that way......but in the bestest way. You’ll end up being sucked into their music and getting lost in your own world. Beautiful ambient post-rock music.

Lastly, the band of the night, Tapestry. Always entertaining the crowd in between with their indonesian accent jokes courtesty of lead vocalist Syed Hafiz lulz. They played both their old songs and new ones. Their familiar “Pasir Ris” song. A song from the Reminiscence split, Why Do People Have To Leave Each Other? They ended the night with Sputnik Sweetheart. Sending everyone back home with resounding lyrics,
When February comes, I’ll be alone again
