Climb In The Back With Your Head In The Clouds

Shizuka In The Sky With Diamonds
Genre: Indie / Experimental / Indie
From: Indonesia


Indonesia's Shizuka In The Sky With Diamonds, possibly the worst band name of 2009, are, for now anyway, a one-member band formed by QQ who provides guitar,mouth 'n tongue for another Indonesian band, Shoutboxblues. With Shoutboxblues drummer busy working and bassist busy finishing school QQ decided to dip his toes in the solo world hence SSD (I much prefer that to the longer version of the name).

QQ's songs are a lo-fi, DIY, synthesis of Bloc Party post punk and Strokesesque nonchalance, a musical document of the noises inside his head, heart and soul.

You get the feeling that QQ doesn't give a stuff if you like him or loathe him just as long as he gets a reaction.
