Fleshwater Presents: “Standalone” (Official Music Video)

Freshwater, whose recent visit to Japan in November 2024 is still fresh in our memories, has been drawing attention for their fusion of shoegaze, post-hardcore, and grunge, along with their male-female twin vocals.

Their long-awaited new track “Standalone” is an intensely fierce short tune—just about one minute long! Despite its brief length, it’s packed with the band’s signature style: cool yet passionate melodies and aggressively cutting guitar tones that are seriously badass.

If you’re interested in the recent genre often called grungegaze, be sure to give it a listen.
