About the Band

SEMI-CON

Original pop punk from Central Taiwan, SEMI-CON started out playing Fei Party punk shows with bands like ANARCHY, REPRODUCTION and THE NERVES. In 2004, they became part of the Taipei scene alongside CHILDREN SUCKER, D.G.S. and THE DEPORTED. SEMI-CON have managed to stick together and most recently have formed the new independent label ZMN RECORDS releasing the tightest youth punk outfits on the island to date.

PACIFICTION REVIEW:

Seven songs of jumpy pop punk straight from a band that has come from the heart of Taiwan's punk rock scene. "Let's Punk Rock" captures the youthful excitement of going out to a Saturday night punk rock party while "My Green Day" pays tribute to one of their American Idiot influences. The happy-go-lucky feel of this album will have you bouncing around with Taiwan punk spirit!
