THREAD NEEDLE, a four-piece alt/dreamgaze band based in Banda Aceh, Indonesia. On their very first EP entitled “The Hardest Part” that came out 3 years ago via La Munai records, the band speaks about the constant pull between feeling jaded, despair, sadness, and overall state of the mind they are working through with a sentimental guitar tones that perfectly mirrors their imagery.

THREAD NEEDLE now is consist of guitarist and lead vocal Akbar Maulana putra, drummer Aulia Rizky, and lead guitarist Alvis Sarakuama and bassist Dylan Farah. Anyone who’s spent time in the last few years local circuit probably might recognize something undeniably familiar this BNA’s scene in their sound: senseless words hiding behind the noise, focused take on the heavy and reverb guitar of the WHIRR and NOTHING, chorus pedals, and dragging the drum beat. That seems pretty much what they all boil down to, but in the near future, the boys are ready to stretch that sound to a more universal portion as well as infusing more poppy hooks without necessarily leaving their preliminary roots and styles.
