Seriously: EPISODE 1

We know Seriously has been around for some time now, but we wanted to give you all a proper introduction and a little taste of what’s to come! Like we said before, we'll be running a continuous series on the band so you can really get to know and love them, allkpop style of course!

We had the pleasure of hanging out with the guys at their studio last week to talk Seriously. Not only are they cute, charming, and make my heart flutter just a little, but they’re also down-to-earth, talented and passionate about their music. Josh, a working man, and the other three, college students, truly live the words they sing. They’re just like us, and that allows them to really connect to their listeners. Have Asian parents or felt the tinge of heartbreak? Seriously feels you.

From the moment we walked into the studio, Seriously welcomed us warmly to their second home. It only took a round of introductions for us to get comfortable with one another. As a professional people watcher, I could easily tell that Chris, Nathan, Josh and Philip are all very close. Whether they were bagging on each other or playing music, you could definitely feel their chemistry.

An interview, jam session and a Top Model-status photo shoot later, three hours had quickly flown by. And before we knew it, we were topping an awesome afternoon off with lunch at Curry House. It was a great day for all of us…we came for an interview and left making new friends!

Catch the video and photos below and stay tuned for the next segment in the Seriously saga (say that ten times fast)! Also be sure to watch Seriously LIVE at their upcoming shows. We’re giving away a pair of tickets to both the NYC and NJ show on Twitter. Keep checking back for your chance to win!

@ 28: How very contradictory of you woothang. -_- Try re-examining what you wrote haha. ::::
Well well now… it appears that allkpop is trying to “promote” it’s “own” groups? LOL. Touche allkpop, touche, I’m not sure if they stand out because they’re an all Asian group (as if some sort of Asian pride is going to kick in right about now….) or if I genuinely like their music. They seem alright but I’m not really digging any of their songs so I’m going to say the Asian thing for now.  Good luck to them anyway. With allkpop on their side, I’m sure… they’ll have throngs of SM idol lovers on their tail in no time. haha.

Hey guys! I noticed questions about the song and I edited the video so let me give you a quick list in the order of appearance:

1. Irony (Opening song)
2. Humility (Plays in the background during the interview)
3. The Immaculate Addiction (Plays during the montage)
4. Dare I Say (Plays at the end with the twitter/myspace/YT/FB info)

All the songs are available on iTunes and at seriouslytheband.com ; all except “The Immaculate Addiction”. It’s a single coming out soon and it’s not available for download or purchase yet. Also note that in the video it is just a 5th demo. The final piece of “The Immaculate Addiction” might sound different! Expect it sometime in December :D

Ohh. Cool.

Their new song seems better than the “Irony” crap. Reminds me of a slightly fruitier “Black Holes and Revelations” era Muse + mainly Maroon 5.
