Shoegaze always has a new transformation, from the way to create the sound or to perform it as the years go by. One of a kind is the Idolgaze group from Thailand, Fingers Cross that combined shoegazing sound and their beautiful performances. Even they're not the first idol group that has a shoegaze/dreamy concept around the idol scene, Fingers Cross still has a special spotlight for it.
6 tracks inside their debut EP being a long beautiful journey for Fingers Cross. All songs are related to the band's concept, Keep Your Fingers Cross, which is a prayer for good luck. Not only focused on Shoegaze, but Fingers Cross also has a wide variety for their music. This is not just the 'genre' only that we talk about, but every story and content inside Fingers Cross songs.
Fingers Cross songs inside 'Early Birth' have different stories about the struggle for living around the society and government until romance lives. From the 'Election' song that tells about the country's hopeful election at that time, 'Fight For the Future' is a song that Fingers Cross wrote to protest in Thailand Demonstrators were attacked and harassed by the government.
Song 'The Flash' that also being Fingers Cross official 1st single release, talks about something holding them from moving forward, and their 2nd single 'Town Under Tears' is about a group of unrequited people who unite to create a utopian. that can fully vent its gloom because we are in town under tears. The next song, titled 'Wipe the Slate Clean', tells the story of a mood that doesn't fit in with what it is today, I don't love myself as I used to. And the last song 'Theory', is a song that tells about the fragile relationship between two people. Where one of them falls into the trap of a lie from a cultist that makes them confused about their relationship.
Under the brightness of a girl idol group, Fingers Cross wants their energy to do more than deliver happiness and entertainment, but believe with art can really change the world, and Fingers Cross wants to take and be a part of doing that.
