They've been described as "Chinatown dance rock," but the Slants are far from a novelty act, writes The Stranger, Seattles alt-rock weekly magazine. NPRs All Things Considered states that "It's tempting to peg the Slants in some existing Asian genre: Canto-pop, J-Metal, Viet Core....but they're not quite that simple." Incase you havent heard, The Slants are an Asian synth-pop band that have been melting faces off all over the country. Since the creation of the band, The Slants have toured the country five times, received press for turning down a million dollar recording contract as well as being banned from a venue in Portland due to breathing fire, and were the first and only Asian band to be a Fender Music featured artist.

No problem in regards to uploading the footage:). My friend Rob deserves a lot of credit for the filming, he did an amazing job with it. I did some minor editing to make it youtube friendly, and added some LST pics I took at Kumoricon at the end of the 5th video. If you guys want a copy of the gig, just send me a message with an addresse and I'd gladly send it to you:).

See you all soon!

It made me sad to see you guys won't be at Ikkicon again next year...WHY THE HELL NOT? I can't go to Chorpus just to see you, or maybe I will. :3

Saw you at Ikkicon this year, and then again at SXSW. We actually talked for awhile before you guys left. TXTW. Anyway, keep kicking ass, hoping to see you guys again soon.
