Sinawe - Heavy Metal Sinawe
The legendary album of South Korean Heavy Metal. Before this album released, some Korean rock listeners thought 'Is it possible? Korean Heavy Metal?' But this album shows "Yes, We can!"
I want to focus on this album's 2 members.
Shin Dae-chul(Leader/Guitar): He is the son of Korean legend music artist Shin Jung-hyeon. And He is also the legend. In Korean Heavy Metal. He can play guitar very young age. These days, in Korea, It's common than past. But when he was a child, It's not common. Sinawe changed many members. But he always in the band.
Yim Jae-beom(Vocal): He Started his career in Sinawe and vocal on Sinawe's first album(Heavy Metal Sinawe). but his Sinawe's career is only this album. When his solo musician era, He changed the genre from Rock to Soul/R&B. And that choice is very successful.
Here are my best tracks on this album.
Track 1. "크게 라디오를 켜고"
Sinawe's most famous song. This song has many versions.
Track 3. "남사당패"
Origin of the name "Sinawe" is the type of Korean Traditional Music "Shinawi".(English spell is different but, In Korean, same spell and same sound) And Track 3 title "남사당패" is also about Korean Traditional Music. I think this song is heavier than Track 1. "크게 라디오를 켜고" and more matched Sinawe's Heavy Metal sound.
