Singapore metalcore outfit RESERATE have announced a six date tour of Japan, celebrating the release of their new album ‘Introspect’. The band recently supported Japanese kawaii band BABYMETAL in Singapore on 20th August.
They say: “We’re excited to embark on our first tour overseas and meet new bands and experience the culture of the music scene overseas, and we’re gonna eat, ALOT!.”
‘Introspect’, a 10-track effort self-produced by the band, aims to take listeners on an introspective journey through a blend of evocative melodies and powerful themes. Introspect marks a significant milestone in Reserate’s musical journey. Each track delves deep into the complexities of human emotion and experience, offering a rich tapestry of sounds that range from hauntingly beautiful to intensely powerful.
The band explain: “This album is about looking inward and understanding the different facets of our emotions and experiences. We wanted each track to resonate with our listeners and offer them a space to reflect and connect.”
They go on to add: “One of our tracks off the LP “The Longing” is an anthem, a statement – this is our sing-along track inspired by the musical emo era of 2010s with a twist that we call _Reserate_.”
Reserate attacks the Singapore music scene with their high-energy, meticulously crafted over-the-top compositions. Inspired by music from all over the spectrum, their sound can be described as a coalescence of heavy hard-hitting riffs with modern synthesized elements and futuristic cinematic sound design.
The band’s mantra of “never writing the same song twice” can be heard via the evolution of their sound through each release. From the inception of their unique metalcore sound in their four-track debut EP “Infinite Entity” to a remixed version of it titled “Augmented Entity”.
Reserate is also known to bring an unforgettable live show which can be described as a “Metal rave set in the future”. Their shows blend stunning visuals and rearranged versions of their tracks infusing electronic remixes, seamless transitions, and intricate sound design. Notable shows include one of Singapore’s largest Rock and Metal Festival, Rock Central in 2019 and Baybeats, Singapore’s Largest Alternative Music Festival in October 2022.
