Dashboard Confessional-HandsDown

Mengangkat tema tawuran yang menjadi tren mematikan pada sebagian anak muda di Indonesia, “Mati Muda” merupakan sebuah teguran keras dari Kelompok Penerbang Roket yang di iringi distorsi dan penuh emosi.  Single ini merupakan awal dari terbentuknya Kelompok Penerbang Roket yang nantinya akan di rilis secara gratis. Bersamaan dengan pembukaan perpustakaan di LP II Cipinang kami mengadakan rilis party “Mati Muda” bersama dengan sekitar 500 orang warga binaan. Beberapa warga binaan yang kami wawancarai mengungkapkan kebosanan mereka tentang hiburan musik ala lapas yang itu-itu saja (dangdut atau keroncong) “bosen mas temen-temen disini banyak yang suka musik rock, biasanya kalo ngga dangdut ya keroncong tapi mending dangdut lah kita masih bisa liatin biduan nya, maklum disinikan laki semua” ungkap salah seorang warga binaan. Membawakan total 9 lagu dimana dua diantaranya adalah lagu cover dari Iwan Fals (http://youtu.be/UVwoqhDq5lI)  dan Duo Kribo berhasil membuat mereka terhibur. Kami sangat senang karena dapat di terima dengan sangat baik oleh warga binaan disana, “Experience yang ga bisa gue lupain, baru kali ini setiap gw solo gitar di tepokin dan di appreciate sampe segitunya” ungkap Rey (Guitar/Vocal2). Kami juga membuat short documenter live at Cipinang yang rencananya akan kami rilis di bulan mei melalui berita angkasa (official youtube account kami). Simak juga official video clip “Mati Muda” (http://youtu.be/iWmqw7PqAgs)  yang sudah kami rilis sebelumnya via channel youtube berita angkasa.

Indonesian quartet The SIGIT produce exhilarating garage-rock that has earned acclaim from the likes of Rolling Stone Indonesia. The SIGIT was formed in the late ‘90s by four high school friends, who shared a mutual admiration for rock gods of the ‘70s. Discreetly in the classroom, the group would listen to their ‘70s influences, in addition to recent phenomenon like Brit-pop, shoegaze, and modern punk-rock. After class they would re-convene in the garage, where they emulated the variety of sounds and styles they heard that day. The SIGIT’s wide range of stylistic interests made it difficult initially to identify the music scene that would fit their inventive material. 

Formed in the late ‘90s, a time when artists like Limp Bizkit and Britney Spears were dominating airwaves, The SIGIT wondered how their rock-based tendencies and reverence for multiple styles would be received by audiences. To find out, they began to send out invitations to a weekly garage gig, which featured beer, barbeque, and The SIGIT’s engaging music. The audience’s reaction was extremely positive, and the four-piece realized they would not be forced to confine to radio conventions to gain listeners. Their authentic love for good old rock ‘n’ roll would be more than enough.

In response to the popular garage gigs, The SIGIT released their debut EP in late 2004. Esteemed publications and labels like FFWD Records came calling, providing The SIGIT opportunities to perform outside their garage. With high-energy and passionate performances, their profile began to rise rapidly through live shows, setting the stage for The SIGIT's 2007 full-length debut, Visible Idea of Perfection. The album received glowing reviews, especially from Australian publications like Faster Louder. This led to The SIGIT's first international gigs, when they toured Australia for Visible Idea of Perfection. By 2009, The SIGIT were performing at US festivals like SXSW. That June, they released a collection of ten diverse songs entitled Hertz Dyslexia, which included a DVD of live footage and music videos. To celebrate the release, The SIGIT held a solo concert in Bandung, which was attended by a sold-out audience of over 3500 fans. A national tour would follow, and The SIGIT’s international presence would increase significantly.

The SIGIT recently released their second full-length album, Detourn. The title is a pun on the word “detournement”, a variation on a previous media work where the newly created one has a meaning that is antagonist to the original. The band started writing Detourn in 2009, and finally took to the studio in late 2011. Recording and mixing ended in January, and Detourn was released on March 16th via FFWD Records. Detourn has already received significant acclaim. Rolling Stone Indonesia gave the album 4 out 5 stars, praising Detourn for its mixture of anthemic rockers and intricately precise orchestration. Seven years between full-lengths, it was clear that The SIGIT knew how to relieve the anticipation.
