Thai band Nologo, a solid group that mixes post-punk music and new electronica that pulls viewers like gravity.

Gravity, Nologo’s third album presents the band members armed with heavy guitars. Their towering choruses seem to have claws that dig deep into mind and soul where it is near impossible to shake off. Knowing Thailand’s contemporary music scene, which seems to be passionate with bossanova covers or light acoustic pop, there are still several tracks from the album that are getting airplay due to a stimulating mash-up of genres, which are carefully packaged as gritty pop songs.

Soul and Front man of the band, Dome Pakorn Lam is sternly underrated as a musician.  Dome started out as a model during his teens, and then entered the Thai music scene in 1996 as a pop vocalist. He is attractive which gives him plus points in his performance that made him to a higher level. Over a million of his records were sold. In 2001, he also released his last pop record entitled, Naked, after which he left for the USA to do new techniques in music.

In 2003, he released a single entitled, “Circumambulate” under Nologo, then was a one-man band. In the year 2005, Dome made a full return to the music industry with the album entitled, “How to be a Rock Star” with band members Chompoo and Ying. The modification of record tag also ushered in a new rock sound, much different from the endearing tunes he used to toss out. The album “Variety”, which was released in 2006, boasted off new curriculum: Dome as vocalist and on synthesizers, Jittranan Phongpilar or Ying on guitars, Kazuhiro Hatano or Kaz, a Japanese musician who is based in Thailand on bass, and Yingyai Hunchanasavee or  Yai on drums.
