False Plaintiff is a melodic hardcore band based in Singapore and is now on its 10th anniversary. Their music has been described by many as brutally honest, terrifyingly confessional, as well as firm with highly relatable and truthful lyricism. With 7 releases under their belt and having performed extensively at home and abroad, False Plaintiff is often associated with global heavyweights like La Dispute, Touché Amoré, Senses Fail and Balance & Composure.
The band has just released their brand new mini-album ‘When Goodbyes Become Easier’ that sees the band go in an even more emo/alternative rock direction – yet staying true to their heartfelt lyrical/musical identity. The press release states, “‘When Goodbyes Become Easier” continues the group’s muscular instrumentation rooted in melodic hardcore, but frontman Brandon Tanoto leads the band with his most dynamic vocal performance yet, and the band’s ruminative influences shine brighter than ever — marking an impressive step forward for the quintet”. The new album is being released on vinyl formats in collaboration with Cold Press Records (https://www.instagram.com/coldpressrecs/) at https://coldpressrecords.com/products/when-goodbyes-become-easier-by-false-plaintiff, Desperate Infant Records (www.desperateinfantrecords.com), Melt Records (https://www.instagram.com/meltrecordsph/), and Europe: Dingleberry Records (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100057343814771).
