The band ‘Silica Gel’ consists of 4 members: Kim Hanjoo (keyboard/vocal), Kim Chunchu (guitar/vocal), Kim Geonjay (drums), and Choi Woonghee (bass). The unique psychedelia built on the basis of a colorful spectrum and the live performance of explosive energy have been condensed to become the newest, most courageous, sound-producing band ‘Silica Gel’. Emerging in the indie scene in August 2015 with the EP [Five Perspectives of a Zero Gravity Deer Ingested Again], the band released their regular album [Silica Gel] in October 2016. The album received critical acclaim and earned them three Rookie awards, including ‘Rookie of the Year’ at the Korean Popular Music Awards. Their commitment to “continue making ear-crazy music,” expressed upon receiving these awards, was reaffirmed with [Kyo181], a new comeback announced in 2021. The band’s a little bit of cheeky interview ‘Silica Gel aims for teamplay rather than teamwork’ sounds like a word that best represents the band’s current pursuit, rather than a joke to pass over. The reason may be that the band’s identity is being established by continuing omnidirectional activities based on each member’s exceptional musical ability. If you are curious about the possibility of Silica Gel, the answer can be found in music. It is unheard because no one has ever tried it, therefore it’s supposed to be new because it is unheard, for weird things always bring something new the more you think about it.
