Kuala Lumpur-based five-piece band, The Eightyfour, is a fierce melting pot of post-hardcore meets punk. The band consists of childhood friends, Dean on lead guitar, Dauz on vocals, Amin on second guitar, Najib the beat knocker, and Abu/Fendi on bass.
The band was formed way back in 1998 under various, different names. With several line-up changes due to personal commitment, the line-up ended as it is now. The original members of the band Dean and Amin, met Dauz, Abu and Fendi in year 2000. Together they have chosen the name Eightyfour as their official band name and only in 2004 that the band actually involved actively in the music scene; since each of the members has their own band to concentrate on; Co.Syndrome, Seed, and Crux to name them a few.
They recorded their first demo in 2004, with Parken; a Penang lad, became their second vocalist. The demo was not distributed to the scene; it was only given to close friends and followers. Then Parken left the band and with Fendi occupied with work commitments, Najib joined the band while Abu swapping to bass. Together the band cites influences from Underoath, Hopesfall, Billy Talent, Alexisonfire, Glassjaw, Envy and The Fall of Troy. The band played thru a series of gigs in 2005 and 2006 before deciding to have a break for a year.
Come 2008, the band decided to get back into the Malaysian music scene with a bang. The band is currently in the studio recording their long awaited debut album. The band has already set the target to capture a bigger audience this time around with the help of some accomplished artist as guest singers in two of the band’s new songs. The album is expected to be angst-fuelled screams with a fair bit of catchy dancehall hooks accompanied with crunching guitars. All in all, The Eightyfour is ready to deliver the beautiful sounds and in your face at the same time. Rock on!
