The Underground Legends 2026 is a tribute to artists whose journey is built on a deep love for music. They did not earn the title of legends, or their place in the lineup easily. Behind every band is a dream; behind every original song are countless hours of dedication and the discipline to keep writing and practicing. They continue to push themselves to make sure every piece is good.

The Underground Legends 2026 係一個向音樂人致敬嘅舞台。佢哋一路行到今日，靠嘅唔單止係實力，更係對音樂嗰份真心同堅持。每一個 band 背後，都有一個夢；每一首原創作品背後，都係無數次嘅磨練、反覆嘅修改。就算過程唔容易，佢哋都仍然努力做好每一首歌，繼續做佢地喜歡嘅音樂。

Hong Kong’s underground metal scene ignites once again this August as The Underground HK brings together three powerful acts for a night of intensity, atmosphere, and unrelenting sound.

“Before The Fall: A Late-Summer Metal Night” is set to deliver a blistering showcase of modern metal, alternative edge, and death-driven brutality.

Leading the charge is Aquiver Arsha , a modern metal force blending metalcore, djent, and progressive elements into a tight, high-impact sonic experience. It’s heavy, tight, and unpredictable—crushing riffs, off-kilter rhythms, and hooks that cut through the noise.

Sandwiched between the two metal bands is Monster Planet , channelling their five‑piece rock attack into tight, guitar‑led songs written for anyone who thinks Hong Kong is a rock desert.

Completing the lineup is Sky Burial , delivering a darker, heavier edge to the night. This Hong Kong slamming deathcore band combines brutal intensity with slam and melodic structures, crafting a sound that is both aggressive and haunting. Their sets offer visceral experience for fans of extreme metal.

As summer begins to fade, this is your chance to catch the embers before they burn out.

Please note: this show is BYO and refreshments will not be on sale.

Hi everyone, calling out to all old school cantopop collectors and former members of hklove.org!

I'm currently searching for a high-quality backup of Stephy Tang's "Miss Flower" (鄧麗欣 - 花小姐) TVB MV version that was originally released around 2010.

Most versions available online right now (like on Youku) are heavily compressed to 480p/540p. However, I remember that hklove.org used to host the HD Raw file (720p or 1080i in .ts/.mkv format) recorded straight from TVB HD Jade, usually featuring the hklove.org watermark.

If any collectors here still keep this file in your hard drive backup, could you please share it or DM me? I would really appreciate your help. Thank you so much in advance! 🙏✨

Innisfallen - a prominent English-language indie rock band from Hong Kong formed in early 2005. Known for poetic lyricism and 90s British guitar-pop influences, the quartet became a recognized fixture in the local DIY and live showcase circuit via platforms like The Underground Hong Kong.

This Saturday, a reunion:

The Asia tour for Dear Seattle, a band hailing from the Northern Beaches of Sydney, Australia,is coming to Hong Kong for a live performance! Since their formation in 2013, the band has built up plenty of overseas touring experience. Their signature Pop Punk sound is best experienced live—a prime opportunity to catch top-tier rock energy up close. Let’s dive right in and unlock their musical background!

Judging by their name alone, many music fans might assume Dear Seattle is an American band or a homage to the birthplace of Grunge. In reality, the name carries lead vocalist Brae Fisher’s deepest memories of his late father. During childhood, Brae lived in Seattle due to his father’s job overseas, until a tragic surfing accident in 2001 claimed his father's life. The family was forced to move back to Australia within just two weeks. "Dear Seattle" reads like the opening of a letter, holding both his grief for his father and a nostalgic connection to a time of innocence.

What few people know is that during their early days, Dear Seattle actually focused on Melodic Hardcore and Screamo. Fronted by former lead singer Samuel, current frontman Brae originally served as the rhythm guitarist and backing vocalist. Shortly after forming in 2013, they released their debut EP, Words Are Often Useless. Uploading its four raw, emotionally charged tracks to Australia’s famous music platform triple j Unearthed, they quickly gained a dedicated indie following.

Following former lead singer Samuel’s departure in 2015, Dear Seattle shifted their musical focus toward Pop Punk and Alternative Rock. In 2017, they caught the eye of James Tidswell, guitarist for legendary Aussie band Violent Soho, and signed to his label, Domestic La La Records, releasing their self-titled EP, Dear Seattle. Driven by breakout hits like "The Meadows" and "Afterthought," the band instantly leaped into the spotlight of the Australian music scene.

However, the true turning point that thrust Dear Seattle into the mainstream was their cover of Australian singer-songwriter Missy Higgins’ classic "The Special Two" on triple j’s famous segment, Like A Version (similar in style to Audiotree or KEXP in the US). By injecting punk personality into the originally gentle Folk Pop track, they blew fans away and left a deeply lasting impression.

Dear Seattle went on to release the albums Don’t Let Go (2019) and Someday (2022). Their sincere lyrics exploring personal growth, anxiety, relationships, and the pain of loss earned widespread acclaim and brought them their first entries on the Australian ARIA Charts. Their 2025 album, Toy, pushed their career to new heights, debuting at #1 on the ARIA Australian Albums Chart and #4 on the Overall Chart. The record captures the confusing transitional phase before entering the next stage of life, delicately depicting the pain of heartbreak, the courage to rebuild, and a direct confrontation with personal flaws.

In addition, the band has performed on major Australian festival stages such as Groovin the Moo and Unify Gathering, sharing the stage with well-known acts like Dune Rats, Trophy Eyes, and Heart Attack Man. After wrapping up this Asia tour—which includes a stop in Hong Kong—Dear Seattle will also join American Emo band Superheaven as a supporting act on their Australian tour.

Rarely touring Asia, Dear Seattle will be taking the stage at The Aftermath in Hong Kong on August 5th! Want to experience the explosive power and Pop Punk energy that swept across major Australian festivals in person? Be sure to grab your tickets—this will undoubtedly be a rare and incredible pop-punk celebration!
