PROFILE

The band 'Silica Gel' is a band consisting of 4 members:
Han-joo Kim (keyboard/vocal), Chun-chu Kim (guitar/vocal), Gun-jae Kim (drums), and Woong-hee Choi (bass).

The unique psychedelia built on the basis of a colorful spectrum and the live performance of explosive energy have been condensed to become 'Silica Gel', a band that creates the newest, most courageous sound.

Appeared in the indie scene by throwing out the EP [Five Perspectives of a Zero Gravity Deer Ingested Again] in August 2015, and the regular album [Silica Gel] released in October 2016 was critically acclaimed and 'Rookie of the Year' at the Korean Popular Music Awards. The band gave the band three Rookie of the Year awards, including, and when they received the Rookie of the Year award, their determination to 'continue to make deaf music' seems to be still valid in [Kyo181], which announced a new comeback in 2021. With the subsequent releases of [Desert Eagle] and [NO PAIN] in 2022, created a new phenomenon in band music and won the Korean Popular Music Awards for ‘Best Modern Rock Song’ for two consecutive years.

The interview with the band with a little bit of witty “Silica Gel aims for team play rather than teamwork” sounds like a word that best represents the band’s current pursuit, rather than a joke to pass over. The reason may be that the band's identity is being established by continuing omnidirectional activities based on each member's exceptional musical ability.

If you are curious about the possibility of silica gel, the answer can be found in music. Because no one has ever tried it, so it is unheard of, and because it is unheard of, it is bound to be new.
