Plainsunset, widely acknowledged as Singapore’s Indie-pop-punk legends, made a comeback in 2008 after their break up in 2004 with the launch of their first widely distributed studio album. “PLAINSUNSET”. Drawing heavily on the influences that inspired them to make music of their own - from the more familiar U2 and New Order, to power-pop powerhouses Hey Mercedes and The Starting Line - this album boasts some of Plainsunset's most accessible music to date. This fourth album certainly charts the 12-year-old band’s steady progression to maturity and popularity. From their early days of playing to 30 kids at local community centres, to touring Malaysia, the Philippines, China, and New Zealand, Plainsunset have had quite an impressive, if convoluted, history. After breaking up in 2004, they set the record for the greatest attendance in a single set at the Esplanade’s Baybeats Festival (Singapore’s biggest Indie-Alternative rock festival) with their spectacular comeback performance in 2006. Most recently, Plainsunset have made a stride into the world of commercial music, with 5 tracks from the PLAINSUNSET album featured in Star World’s HEROES Season 2 promotional campaign. For those who have yet to be mesmerized by their explosive live performances, or who have yet to take notice of Plainsunset’s inspiring tunes and lyrics with a heart, now is the time; Because as the age old saying goes – “The sun will rise again”.
