For unsuspecting listeners expecting raw hardcore sounds, the easy-going, breezy jazz-pop of Sumeth & The Punk may initially be confusing. Though a far cry from punk rock's fury, Sumeth Ong and Boo Suwan create songs that are arresting in their own way. Since debuting in the late '90s, the duo has released a steady stream of twinkling, acoustic pop and hummable folk tunes. They embrace subtle touches—a saxophone solo here, a samba break there—building a rich catalogue of chilled-out, laid-back pop.
