Fierce—relentlessly fierce—beauty that gets up in your face and doesn’t leave. That’s how the brooding and layered compositions of Soumbalgwang tend to hit. A four-piece post-hardcore/punk band, Soumbalgwang was formed in 2016 and hails from Busan, South Korea.
Known for their aggressive and fiercely engaging live performance, Soumbalgwang channels bruised beauty, born from the clash between sweet, nihilistic melodies and searing intensity. Their textured and aggressive sound draws from the raw energy of ’70s classic punk rock to the introspective tones of ’90s indie rock and beyond.
Their second full-length album Happiness, Flower (기쁨, 꽃) released in 2021 won Best Rock Album at the Korean Music Awards in 2022. Dance from the same album also won Best Rock Song that year. In 2024, their third album Fire & Light (불과 빛) (2024) won Best Rock Album at the Korean Music Awards. Their accolades affirm their position as rising stars in the South Korean rock scene today.
