Since 2008, GigGuide.tw has been here to serve the local indie music community by providing a concert calendar, interviews, gig photos and CD and gig reviews. Being completely operated and funded by a small group of volunteers, GigGuide.tw has struggled to continue operations. Due to the gracious support from local musicians and venues, we are able to bring you a series of concerts featuring top local bands which will benefit GigGuide.tw and help us to continue offering our services. We have a lot more exciting plans in the works to benefit the music community and with your help we can make it happen.
Thank you for your support!

Sleaze
WTF, where the hell did these guys come from?
A-Jiang, Zun-Long, King-Kong, Xun-Ji Chang and Jia-Ji Lu. Their listening sense are as weird as their life experiences, once get into producing music, they come out with the sense of black humor combined with the viewpoint of this pale world. In the local music scene they present the audience the most impressive music transition, they strike the low frequency beat that make people wanna dance, they turn a beautiful music tune into a crazy screaming but yet keep in smooth and straightforward. So next time when you hear them calling themselves “noise rock”, don’t get fooled! At least, they are the only one band in Taiwan that can combine these four extreme style, depressing, reflecting, unbridled and exciting into four different sound level, then exposure on stage, to challenge the reaction of the audience.
Those who only care “what’s happening in abroad” can go home now, the fashion show is over. Of course, if there’s anyone who would like to stay and enjoy the new Taiwanese style mixed with stoner riff life show, you are more than welcome to stay, and try your best to survive.
