Connecting the history of pop music. Sobs, the brightest hope of the Asian indie music scene, releases their long-awaited 2nd album! Sobs, the first evangelist of indie pop from Singapore and the brightest hope of the Asian indie music scene, are a trio who wholeheartedly believe in the power of pop music. Four years after their 2018 debut album, "Telltale Signs," they have finally released their 2nd album! "Air Guitar" is a 30-minute journey for the post-internet consumer, crafting original pop hooks for indie rock lovers and creating intricately arranged pop songs with instantly recognizable melodies. Drawing a line that connects the history of pop music, from 80s new wave ("Last Resort") and 90s power pop ("Burn Book") to 00s Sk8er punk and radio pop ("Air Guitar"). Furthermore, reflecting PC Music's cosmopolitan and keen cultural spirit, the album blends uptempo Shibuya-kei guitar pop reminiscent of advantage Lucy ("Lucked Out"), emotionally charged indie rock from artists like Bettie Serveert and Big Star ("World Implode"), and the eclecticism of New York's Darla Records ("Friday Night"), redefining the pulse of indie pop then and now. Bonus tracks include covers of Avril Lavigne's "Anything But Ordinary" (Japan edition only) and Gwen Stefani's "Cool."
