The Murky Crows is an alternative rock band formed in Taipei, Taiwan in 2010. After several changes, it is now composed of six members. They called themselves as “second-rate poets, first-class hotties ”.
In 2013, the debut album “Dark Scene in the Allegorical Way” was released, and dark fables of post-punk’s style was written with realism. In 2015, “It’s ok, we will meet in other ways” was launched, using complex arrangements to depict the weirdness of adult fairy tales. Until 2018, they finally brought back their third album “On Ne Fait Rien En Ce Moment(We are not doing anything at the moment)” , and meticulously talk about the romantic lifestyle of middle-aged men. As the richness of the experience and the change of mood, the Murky Crows always changes their music style, and they are never willing to be defined. To be consistent, it may be their humorous recitation of daily troubles. Enjoying the hardship with their self-entertaining is not a difficult thing.
As a multiple art group, the band leader Lee Chung Li painted ten portraits of the male protagonists in the album “It’s ok, we will meet in other ways” , which won the Best Packaging Design Award of 27th GMA.
The fourth album “Lonely Uncle” released in 2024
