SiM 『LiFE
and DEATH』
Release date: May 2, 2012

I had heard of the band SiM before,
but I never listened to them. It wasn't until I was wandering around
a store in Shimokitazawa, Tokyo and walked past a display of their
new Mini-Album, 『LiFE and DEATH』 that I actually heard their music.They had the music
video for “AMY” playing, and I liked how it sounded, and they
also looked cool. I felt very compelled to get the CD.
SiM (Silence iz Mine) lists their
style as “REGGAE PUNK (STREET PUNK / HARD CORE / SCREAMO meets SKA
/ REGGAE)” on their website. Well, that pretty much sums up the
sound of 『LiFE and DEATH』.
It's a very intriguing mix that really works for them. I'll be
honest, I have never heard anything like it.
