It’s inspiring to witness the popularity of rock in all it’s many incarnations worldwide. Punk rock and heavy metal, in particular, have made a huge impact on the youth in some unlikely places where the governments would rather not deal with that kind of aggression.
Grey Grace, a punk/rock/hardcore band hailing from Tangerang, Indonesia, is a perfect example of this popularity. Taking influence from Sicktrick, Rufio, Nofx, Propagandhi and Alexis On Fire, they hope to continue the punk tradition that bands like the Sex Pistols and the Clash helped form. Their style mixes skate and pop punk with elements of thrash metal for good measure. While they have yet to find their own sound and the vocals can be shaky at times, the band shows potential and the talent is there. To hear Grey Grace, visit their facebook page.
