Band: Westbound
From: Bekasi, Indonesia
Their formation story:
(Waki, guitar): “The band started as a way for us to create something that reflects our own experiences, struggles, and emotions. We wanted to combine the intensity of hardcore with strong melodies and a more atmospheric approach.”
Their sound in their own words:
“Melodic, emotional, chaotic. Our influences for this band include Comeback Kid, Counterparts, and Orchid."
