INTRODUCTION TO Y2K



-Blasting onto the local indie music scene in 2002 with their madcap antics, Y2k started off as a punk-rock cover band, converting 80’s and 90’s pop songs from the likes of Wham, Atomic Kittens and Cindy Lauper into punk rock.



As the band evolved, more and more original songs entered their repertoire, each member bringing their unique influences and origins into the mix, fusing genres and languages whilst still retaining the pop-punk ethos.



After a year of struggling, Y2k have finally finished their debut album, PIZZA SALSA: a blistering barrage of pop, punk rock, hip-hop, metal and ska in English, Malay, French and Japanese.



ABOUT THE BAND



-Y2k have been a staple of the music scene since the band formed, busily playing show after show throughout Kuala Lumpur, Terrenganu, Penang, Melaka, Johor Bahru and Singapore, building up their reputation as excellent showmen. They performed at the Fat Festival in Thailand, Duduluran Rock Fest in Bandung, Indonesia and Rock the World 7 (One of Malaysia biggest annual Rock concert).



Y2k also won the regional finals of the Global Battle of the Bands in 2007, becoming the Malaysian Champions for the Global Battle of the Bands. They were also in the top 10 bands in the World Finals at the Global Battle of the Bands and played in the legendary Electric Ballroom in London, England.

Not only are they known for their catchy, energetic songs, but also for their hilarious stage repertoire which some have likened to stand-up comedy.
