Give & Take vol.2 is out now is out on sale since 15th
November 2019. It all started when Zahid (of The Elm Kids fame) offered us to
make a compilation and record all songs at his studio Lifeboat Studio in Sri
Kembangan Selangor. We told the bands around our circle to go and record a song
at the studio. Some more bands that played at the Punk Rock Freakers show in
November 2018 were invited.
The first band that recorded their song was The Needles
which was in December 2018 and the last band was Toxictoy. Most of the bands
also appeared in the Give & Take compilation vol. 1 released in 2012 which
are TIM, Dum Dum Tak, Skunkfix, The Needles and Toxictoy.
GUWF! Is a new band consisting of Tobek (Always Last), Munet
(Stick No Bill), Napi (The Korok), Arip (Never Found) and also Solih (Brayok).
They play powerpop like Weezer and Pup. Parklane made up of Jim and Saiful
(Bugstar) which originated from Batu Gajah Perak. Absolute Paradox consists of
two members from Tadpoles with the help of Akmal from TIM. Multiverse G.D. is a
new band formed by Emy and Min from Skunkfix and also Shah from The Mindless
Show. Nywa is Zahid's new band.
Other bands that made the compilation complete are quite big
names in the local scene; The Fridays, In A Sense, Priceless Stupid Box (from
Pasir Gudang Johor) and Trophy Knives (which recently launched their new album ‘Glass
Ceiling’).
The Needles announced that the song they contributed ‘Bulan
Ke Riba’ is gonna be their last song they record together. So to their fans and
supporter. Do get this CD!
