Nha Trang’s instrumental post-rock duo 7/4 Surfers build raw, atmospheric soundscapes from effects-driven bass and dynamic drums. Bassist MISH.REC and drummer Nikita met at a local gig, bonded over jazz, classic rock, and electronic experimentation, and now thrive on odd time signatures and unpredictable improvisation.
Saigon’s Bột Màu Khoai Tây Cà Rốt mixes pop, folk, and rock into deceptively gentle indie songs that turn surprisingly rowdy on stage. With their 2025 EP “Ca Ngợi Thiên Nhiên Và Con Người,” the five-piece steps into more contemplative, healing-minded territory while keeping their playful identity intact.
Thangca is a Saigon five-piece welding heavy fuzz, blues-tinged overdrive, and pounding rhythms to ambient, psychedelic textures. Behind the abrasion sits something quieter, songs about inner struggles, unresolved questions, and the unease of everyday life. Since their debut album “Khung Trời Treo Ngược” (2023), they’ve stayed steadily, restlessly active.
Founded in 2025, ROUTE59 emerged from Saigon’s underground as a hardcore band built on the collision of each member’s distinct energy and identity. Despite their differences, the group converges under one shared voice — 59 — a number that stands for Saigon and the spirit that shaped them.
Lulaby brings a youthful, dreamy spirit to Vietnam’s indie rock scene, blending hazy textures, emotional storytelling, and genre-bending experimentation. Born in Cần Thơ and raving in Saigon, the five-piece treats music as adventure; curious, open-hearted, and unafraid to wander between sounds.
Anesthetic Youth return from a four-year silence with renewed intent. Sparked by the return of founding member Jesus and the arrival of vocalist My An, the Saigon rock outfit re-emerges with “Adapting” a brooding bridge between past urgency and a sharper, more deliberate future.
