"Humanzee! trailer (featuring "Now That I Can See)"
Directed by James Gunn
“A sexy monster unlike anything heard from these homegrown indie pop pioneers... bound to spark a dancefloor riot”
- The Star
“Overflows with a punky exuberance that recalls the mighty Buzzcocks at the height of their powers, with the melodic flair of Cheap Trick and The Raspberries”
- Koko Asia
“The only possible reactions: jaws dropping and dancing feet... will plague the hearts of many with the sound of their music”
- Magmug (Singapore)
“Couple datang lagi dengan album yg light, bright dan nge-dance berjudul Teenage Disc Fantastic... sangat berbakat untuk jadi hits”
- Elzzine (Indonesia)
“Berbunyi antarabangsa, rakamannya begitu hidup sekali... dipenuhi dengan lagu yang kekal di ingatan”
- Gua.Com.My
One of the few true blue power pop bands in the region, Couple has been plying its trade for years now, dedicating itself to remind people of the virtues and magic of 'the song', and the power of the pop!! Taking cues from bands like The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Big Star, The Who, The Raspberries, The Beat, The Rooks, Enuff Znuff and Weezer, Couple has kept on doing what they do best and hope to put a smile (and hopefully a headbang or toe-tap or two) on all youse guys' faces. But, making you wet your pants will make us equally happy too!!
Relying solely, and foolishly, on the dodgy songcraft of our dodgy and lame frontman, Aidil, Couple has continued to defy the odds as none of us can play our instruments competently to save our lives, hoping to inspire similarly incompetent kids to just form their own bands and stick it to the Man!! Our live shows are textbook examples of the triumph of substance over style, if you call professional musicianship 'style', that is. Sloppy and loud, with more than a touch of toilet humor in our lame crowd banter (if we're up for it!!), our live shows will never fail to make you wet your pants with laughter and icky stuff. Yes, we're THAT good and THAT bad!!
Bottom line: We're here to serve the muse that is the pop! To pursue that magic in 'the song'. And to give you the sugar rush you need!!
