Komunal: Gemuruh Musik Tanah Tandus
• Versi Bahasa Indonesia silakan klik di sini
The heavy weight quartet from Bandung, Komunal, just released their latest record, Gemuruh Musik Pertiwi. Even though it’s still as heavy as ever, the approach in this third album is slightly different compared to the previous ones. Its roots are a little more rock than metal. Yet it’s not as fast, more mid-tempo, with clearer articulation, meaning you can hear what the vocalist sings about.
According to the band—which is often tagged as one of the best heavy metal collectives in Indonesia—the album was recorded live at ArtSound Studio in Jakarta and only took a day to finish (excluding additional guitar improvisation and backing vocals). It’s also dedicated in honor of the legendary Indonesian rock veterans, God Bless. “In term of spirit, Komunal want to replicate what God Bless did in their magnum opus, Raksasa,” commented the frontman, Doddy Hamson.
