Trophy Knives brand new album, Look The Other Way, released on the 9th of September 2022, is the second studio album for the country’s internationally renowned punk band and the follow-up to 2019’s debut album, Glass Ceiling.
Look The Other Way features 9 blistering tracks that are available on digital and physical (CD and vinyl) formats. The vinyl version will also include the single We Can’t Be Saved featuring Chris#2 of legendary American punk band, Anti-Flag, as a bonus track. Look The Other Way is jam-packed with a mixture of heavy hitting drum grooves, chaotic guitar playing, ominous synth effects and snarling vocals over melodic choruses that spit bile on complex issues but remain rooted in the ordinary everyday life.
Trophy Knives have found themselves shedding their old skin by exploring territories they’ve never delved into, which is evident in this new album. Hailing from Kuala Lumpur, Trophy Knives currently consists of Vinesh M (vocals), Sani Khalid (lead guitar) and Ryan Lee Bhaskaran (drums).
In true celebratory fashion, the band has decided to solemnize the birth of their new record with a one-night-only album release show at The Bee, Publika on the 16th of September 2022 in conjunction with Malaysia Day, where they will be playing Look the Other Way in its entirety for the very first time!
Joining them on this momentous punk rock night to remember are rock super group Jemson, pop-punk darlings, An Honest Mistake and the trio that needs no introduction, EMO NIGHT KL.
“We are very proud to have our brothers in arms share the stage with us this 16 September 2022 for the launch of Look The Other Way. Through the years, we’ve learnt that the local scene could not survive without the resilience of these bands and we would like to share this milestone with them. Plus, we have all not shared a stage with each other for so long due to the global pandemic, so this feels perfect to all of us,” quips Ryan Lee.
