History

[edit]

Dabda were formed in Seoul. Lee Seunghyeon and Kim Jiae attended the same university in Daejeon, and later met other members after they moved to Seoul.[1] The band name is derived Five stages of grief, from the book On Death and Dying by Elizabeth Kubler-Ross.[3] They released their first single, 황금사자 in 2013, and were introduced as rookies on EBS in 2014.[4]

In 2016, they released their first EP Island of Each (저마다 섬).[5][6] KBS World Radio described the album as "Deep, Azure-Coloured, Immersive Music".[7] In 2018, they released their new single Look of a Dream (꿈의 표정).[8] They won the Grand Prize in the Super Rookie at the Pentaport Rock Festival.[9] In 2019, they performed with Yeseo, George, and Rich Mix at the K-Music Showcase 2019 hosted by The Korean Cultural Centre UK.[10]

In 2020, they were joined by Park Heesoo after past bassist Bae Sangeon left, and released their first full-length album, But, All the Shining Things Are.[11] After the album's release, Park Heesoo left the band, and Noh Keohyeon, a producer of the existing band, newly joined as a bassist.[1] In 2021, they released their collaboration single Jungle Gym with Japanese math rock band Toe.[12] In 2023, they released a new EP Yonder.[13][14] Lee Arim of Music Y Magazine described the album's track One, World, Wound as "It makes Frida Kahlo's portrait overlap, leaving a long lingering impression like a flame that never goes out"[15]
