The Mother (Rock Tracks)

The Mother is the music vehicle of indie pop songwriter, Razali Abdullah. The Mother was Singapore's indie darling during the early and mid-nineties, with its mesmerizing shoegazing sound prompting RIP magazine editor Janiss Garza to describe it as "fresher than most British bands, which tend to get a little uppity and pretentious". More than two decades later, The Mother is still fusing lush soundscapes with heartfelt melodies, drifting from dream pop to gothic rock.
