Hong Kong rap-metal legends LMF continue the countdown to their 2 day 20 year anniversary shows entitled LMFXXYEARFEST.
For the past few months bands who were lucky enough to be personally selected to join the lineup for both these dates (what a fucking honor), have been releasing LMF tracks rearranged with their own take on the music. The most recent cover is by Hong Kong metalcore band Yik Lao with a Slipknot-inspired take on the LMF classic 傲氣長存 with a massive arena shattering chorus.
LMF has always embraced all sorts of music, so as you listen to tracks by the other participating bands, don’t be surprised to hear some emo-tinged math rock [GDJYB], soulful indie rock [Phoon], chaotic heaviness [Qiu Hong], instrumental music as well [TFVSJS].
As always – socially forward music matters especially during times of social/political unrest. Thus bands like LMF are as important now as they have ever been.
Long live the spirit of LMF.
