“In life, good and bad things happen in turn. They are just different possibilities of life.”

The inspiration for Sorry Youth’s third album, Bad Times, Good Times, came from an eureka moment when the band consulted an experienced musician for his advice on Taiwanese lyrics. Album title in the original language explained as below:

The word “pháinn-sè” (“Bad Times”) is a common auxiliary verb used by the general public, while “hó-sè” (“Good Times”) has two different meanings when used in two opposite situations. Hó-sè can be used to describe a situation when things are going smoothly, and conversely, it can also be used sarcastically on a messed-up situation. When saying out loud, these two words that rhyme show the unique beauty and depth of written Taiwanese. Putting together, various meanings of these two words float between the two spectrums in a fascinating manner.

A power trio formed by guitarist Weni, bassist Giang Giang, and drummer Chung-Han, Sorry Youth is one of the few indie bands in Taiwan committed to write all of their songs in the native Taiwanese language. Their song arrangement aims to catch the raw spirit of live rock music, and their goal is to write Taiwanese hits that even grandmas and grandpas will approve.
