New Boy Band: “Mate”

nd they're not your traditional k-pop boy band. Indie rock fans rejoice because there's a new group in town and they call themselves Mate. This three member band Lee Hun Eel (vocals and guitar), Jung Jun Eel (vocals and keyboard) and Lee Hyun Jae (drums) rocked up the Cyworld indie scene prior to their debut. Check it out:

Mate "It's Alright"


These guys are mega talented and have won several awards in the past and even wrote and produced all of their music.

And if that isn't enough for you ladies, the drummer, Lee Hyun Jae (described as being dazzling while playing the drums), was chosen to be a clothing brand's main model/representative face which is a position that Kwon Sang Woo, Goo Jun Pyo Lee Min Ho and Se7en was chosen for in the past.

If your a fan of Dashboard Confessional these guys are definitely for you. Being a huge rock fan myself, I am very critical of bands, but these guys are winners. I do have one complaint though: Get a bassist! If they work hard enough, I can totally see them becoming as successful as Nell.

Their debut album "Be Mate" is out and all the tracks sound great so go BUY it:
