Givenpath (Kelantan)

Givenpath was formed by 4 high school students back in 2005; and now they're 18, matured (sort of) and enthusiast, they're taking one step further in the scene. The band members; Sheikh (lead guitar), Aham (2nd guitar), Shafiq (bass), Paes (drums) are influenced by Pink Floyd, Queen, Electric Light Orchestra, Rush, Dream theater & Sigur Ros. To spice up their sound, they've added another band member, Purji as the keyboardist in the band early this year. Their music is more to experimental instrumental-ish and an addition of a few solos, and they're trying not to sound too post rock. Currently they have 4 recorded songs (Cakerawala, Raining, Goodbye Juliet & As An Ugly Boy) and for a short term future plan, they wanted to produce those songs in their first demo sometime next year. So far, they've performed in a several events around the east coast region; Gegey Fest, Saturday Riot, & Kawan Tour to name a few.

From their recorded tracks, even though a lot of people digs "Cakerawala", my pick is "As An Ugly Boy". It's more to mellow-ish song, kinda remind me of Sergeant Weener's Arms' tracks from back in the day. We, Gegey Music, hope that Givenpath will be given a chance to spread their wings and fly because somehow, they have the elements to take another step forward in their music carrier. Thumbs up and a high five.
