Fruitpunch

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fruitpunch, a two-piece post-punk indie band in Hong Kong. Their album Will it End was released in 2005.

Although independent band Fruitpunch just released their debut album "Will It End" in 2005, they have been formed for a long time. They had their first live show as early as 1997. At the beginning, Fruitpunch were a full band with 4 members, but now only Leo(lead singer/guitar) and Patrick (lead singer/bass) remains in Fruitpunch. Recently, they use a drum machine to replace drummer.

Fruitpunch are regarded as a post-punk band, and Leo & Patrick often talk about Joy Division and how they are deeply affected by it. However, Fruitpunch are different from the current British or American new wave post-punk bands such as The Strokes, Interpol, Franz Ferdinand, The Bloc Party etc. Fruitpunch yells quietly and reradiates the accumulation of bitter and drowning feelings.
