In part 2 of my conversation with Decadent, we get more into the heart of what the band’s all about: the music. Blues-rock certainly isn’t a rare weapon of choice for bands from South Korea. However, what separates Decadent from many of their peers is how they wield it. By now most of you know … More A Zandari Festa Interview with Decadent (Pt. 2)
Surely you didn’t think we’d get through Zandari without me having a two-part interview, did you? Come now. You all should know me better than that! There was bound to be one artist so generous with their time I’d have to split up our conversation. Well, here it is. My chat with blues-rock band Decadent … More A Zandari Festa Interview with Decadent (Pt. 1)
One of my first interviews for Zandari Festa was with a band that I’d been really intrigued by from the first time I heard their music. It’s most unfortunate, then, that I made the mistake of suggesting we have our chat underneath the stairwell of MUV Hall while another band was doing their soundcheck. I … More A Zandari Festa Interview with LudiSTELO
Forgive me for saying so, but the very first thing I notice when I walk up to the table for my chat with Ego Function Error is just how absolutely gorgeous everyone sitting there is. There are three women and a young man, and all four of them are just beautiful. Because the lid on … More A Zandari Festa Interview with Ego Function Error

If you know nothing about it, you’ll be shocked to find out that its roof is accessible as a … More A Zandari Interview with Drinking Boys and Girls Choir
If any band encompassed the idea that what happens on stage is just a persona, the vocalist and guitarist that comprise the now-duo DIEALRIGHT is it. Their music is raw noise, pure sex-and-rage-filled energy that translates like magic to the stage. However, meeting them for the first time, a nervous endeavor for me, if i’m … More A Zandari Festa Interview with DIEALRIGHT
It’s a pleasure and blessing when you encounter an artist who wears honesty like a badge of honor. Not so much insisting on their veritas, but not knowing any other way to be. Thus was my conversation with electro-pop artist Aseul. During my time at Zandari, I encountered artists who seemed to have something they … More A Zandari Festa Interview with Aseul
Hello, Rock N’ Seoulers. As you might (or probably might not) know, I had the opportunity to go to South Korea to attend Zandari Festa, one of our favorite festivals here at the site. (Stay tuned for our coverage of the festival in the coming weeks!) Prior to the festival, I got to have a … More [REPOST] “My Journey Has Just Started”: Interview With Rheehab
As Zandari Festa 2018 gets into full swing, we at Rock N Seoul wanted to give readers the opportunity to learn more about the artists who’ll be bringing Hongdae to its knees for one of the city’s most unforgettable annual music events. Something that we don’t really hear much of are those bands who take … More Zandari Festa Interview with Cogason
