Malaysian band IX CHEL describes their sound as Alternative Pop Punk by taking bits and pieces of their favorite genres and blending them together with the raw power of Punk. The band has released an EP ‘At War with Negligence’ which features fast-paced drumming, soaring melodies, and harmonies that will get your attention, paired with screams and half-time breakdowns.
“We have just released our second single from our album Oskar, 100 Yards Away. This alternative pop-punk track is an ode to one-sided love gone too far. The lyrics follow the perspective of a stalker who can’t let go of their obsession and continue following their subject’s every move. The lively, upbeat instrumentation contrasts with the dark and unsettling message of the song, creating a sense of unease that leaves listeners on edge. With its catchy hooks and haunting lyrics, this track captures the disturbing reality of unrequited love turned toxic.”
