THE BLACK AND THE WHITE are a hard-pop indie band from Los Angeles, CA.  Passionate about their song craft, they are driven by their bowie-prince-electric-raw sound. Having gone through so much, the band pushes forward with their new EP, and continues to enjoy tearing down stages at their live shows. They will see you at the next one...

Bittersweet, named after the ever so popular The Verve song, were one of the first to rush out of the gates from their hometown of Ipoh – Malaysia’s spiritual indie rock haven – to standout and be embraced by both the fashion-rock intelligentsia as well as hundreds of thousands raggedy indie kids. 
The regional fringe scene, the band’s peers and their mobs of fans recognise how Bittersweet have passionately and tastefully combined Malay pop yeh yeh sensibilities with Madchester and Britpop cues, absorbed from their teenage years, to become South East Asia’s “new favourite band” for hipsters in the years since they started in 2004. 
Along with two or three other fellow indie rock revivalists Bittersweet would announce a Malaysian new wave of independent, ambitious bands that became popular on the strength of their Brit-inspired sound and a return to the bombastic stage presence, offstage attitude and glamorous aesthetic of their ‘60s and ‘90s idols.
On the back of 2008’s hit ‘KAMI: The Movie’ campaign, Bittersweet’s “Capital E”, off their debut album Perfect Match was one of the singles that suddenly launched “indie” as the nation’s new post-modern craze, boost the movie itself as a mainstream teen favourite and help elevate the soundtrack album as a prized collector’s item. 

We are the Resurrection

Before you write them off musically too, Bittersweet have chops to transcend genre – lead guitarist, main songwriter and founder Herri’s polished Telecaster jangle comes straight from the rare school of Stone Roses virtuoso John Squire and remains untouchable and admired by the band’s peers throughout the region. 
Gnarly, distinctive vocals by new singer Fizan, recruited from Brit-inspired pretenders Dance to the Radio, relaunch Bittersweet as an even more fearless and charismatic combo. Co-founder Emai adds the unsung melodic blanket to the band’s bright and busy dancefloor sound while quiet young guitarist Moon completes the sound and fury of Bittersweet with a George Harrison-esque aura. 
Emai shares some insight for people who need a connection to Bittersweet’s twisty brand of rock: Doves, Coldplay, Blur, Radiohead, Killers, MGMT – all of those staples play their own special part to make up the essence of Malaysia’s premier indie boppers.
Furthermore on tape, after hundreds of gigs under their belts and only two years into their album recording career, Bittersweet remain unapologetic for the influence they have on thousands of imitators with their glitzy brand of indie glam. Just what you’d expect from a gang of proper rock & roll stars that’s here to stay...
So just wait with baited breath for the second album – thousands of fans and indie rock observers are already anticipating it to be the best British album ever made in Malaysia. 

Bittersweet band members are:

1.	Herri (Hazairi Abdul Hamid) - Lead Guitar, Vocals, Songwriter 
“When I play guitar, I want people to hear the sound of the strings.”
Herri is the eldest in the band. He is the founder, main songwriter and lead guitarist of Bittersweet. Much like Noel Gallagher of Oasis, Herri is the heart, soul and brains of the band. Much of the group’s success to date owes to this bloke’s songs, guitar sound and his fearless ambition. 
Straight out of Ipoh, Herri sounds like a storm onstage. A sound perfectionist, he leaves a lasting memory of his guitar chiming and ringing in audiences’ heads long after Bittersweet has rolled on to the next venue. 

2.	Emai (Fadhilul Iqmal Ishak) - Keyboards/Synths, Vocals
“Bittersweet has helped me grow musically, culturally in so many ways.”
Another son of Ipoh, Malaysia, Emai is the first and only keyboard whiz to have played with Bittersweet and has stuck with the band till today, blanketing their sound with driving synth runs and an arsenal of euphoric party sounds almost as big as his heart. Opting for the overwhelming whitewash of keyboards than the common flash of guitars, Emai is a rarity in local rock circles. 

“Rock, punk, indie, pop, disco – we’re not specific to just ‘one type of indie’. But the fashion, our instruments, our attitude, you could say they are ‘Brit based’. We love playing in our hometown (Ipoh), they get us, we don’t have to front – there are no reputations to uphold,” says Emai.
The keyboard players adds on the musical future of Bittersweet: “Ahmad Jais and the other classic Malay musicians of that time, their output was truer, and that appeals to us, so it wouldn’t be wrong to say we’re headed in that direction.”

3.	Fizan (Mohd Hafizan Mohamed Razali) - Lead Vocals
“i just wanted to be myself, not what others want me to be or pretend. Everyone can sing but not everyone can be a frontman, and i finally found where i belong.” 
After his own group, Dance to the Radio disbanded, charismatic Fizan was handpicked by Herri to replace the departure of original singer Pijie, who left for more spiritual pastures, denouncing a rock & roll career to learn the ways of Islamic Sufism. It hasn’t taken long for Fizan (who by the way, looks great in leather and is the youngest in the band at 22) to outlive his predecessor’s shadow.

4.	Moon (Ahmad Munzir Noor Azmi) - Guitar
“I don’t think we write straightforward love songs, but we do write about different kinds of love – love to your band mates and friends, to God, to your calling.”
Moon is the second youngest member of Bittersweet who was recruited from Malaysian Brit-like peers The Times. Fond of fit turtlenecks and rocking a Rickenbacker like he was born to play it, Moon’s looks the part and is a top lad onstage. Like George Harrison in the Beatles, Moon is, indeed, the quiet one.
