Not quite the summery set of songs I would usually expect from a chart this time of the year, but then Korean indie music is rarely as seasonal as the pop world. Here’s the latest indie music chart offered by Bugs:

Modern rock band Glee participated with the song Let’s Together on the Be The Reds, Go Devils compilation last year and on July 6 the two members returned with their first digital single Oh Sad Luv, featuring 3 versions of the song with the same name. If the album info is to be trusted the vocalist, who also doubles as bassist, has a rich and colorful voice. It also seems like the other half of the male duo has been a session drummer for slightly visual kei inspired bands such as EVE and Nemesis. Check out the Glee YouTube channel to hear what they sound like live.
New “indie electronic” artist Rumeda released her first EP, Can sorry, on July 7. The title track is supposed to be an acoustic drum ‘n’ bass production.
