Back in 1999 there was a Ska-Punk band in a suburb of Depok, south of Jakarta. They called themselves Moron. I have searched every inch of Google, tried to find Moron’s Ska Mania Compilation, but nothing. But, just weeks ago, I found these mp3s neglected in mp3 collection in my old hard drive.
I’ve waited so long for the new release of this punk-rock-ska band. This is one of Icha’s favorite band. A little bit late, I just finished listen to it, but sorry to say, I think this is not their best. First of all, I don’t like the cover art, honestly. Twelve songs, only three or four I like, but yes most of them are still Goldfingery. I like their ska tunes, but not as good as the ones on Hang Ups album.
One thing special, this album features The Used’s vocalist Bert and Monique Powell of Save Ferris. Monique rawks! (Hehehe). So if you miss her voice, you might want to check it out.
Setelah nonton konser MxPx tempo hari, gw dah ngira-ngira band punk-rock mana lagi yang kira-kira mo bertandang ke Jakarta. Gw masih ngarepin band-band second wave punk sih. Sebab mereka tu dah senior banget, kapan lagi mo dateng ke Jakarta? Eh tapi, tadi malam Eci ngasih tau kalo ternyata SUM 41 sudah dijadwalkan mo manggung di Jakarta. Dan menurut gw ini pun juga ga kalah keren. (more…)
