Just five months after releasing "Resital Genosida," Bandung-based Deathcore unit IMPURITY is back with a new single, "Wanci Surup" released on August 30, 2024 which is now available on various music platforms. The song draws inspiration from Sundanese cultural beliefs, particularly the myth of "Sandekala"—a time when evil spirits are believed to roam at sunset. "Wanci Surup" captures the twilight transition from day to night, a time when Sundanese folklore warns people to stay indoors to avoid encounters with malevolent spirits. The lyrics, predominantly in the Sundanese language, reflect this cultural theme, and the song is further enriched with traditional Gamelan music. The release is accompanied by a lyric video that visually portrays the mystical atmosphere of "Wanci Surup." The single, which follows their previous release "Resital Genosida," marks the band's ongoing commitment to incorporatin

Bandung-based band MINDLESS SESSION has just released their latest single and music video titled “The Black Witch” on August 15, 2024. Embracing a paradigm of contradiction, the band ventures into a post-apocalyptic dystopian fiction with their new release. Unlike their previous songs, "The Black Witch" features a more stripped-down sound, representing a sarcastic analogy. The song narrates the loss of sanity, deceit, and the demons within every human heart, drawing inspiration from the 14th-century Western tradition where witchcraft was rampant. During that era, numerous women became practitioners of witchcraft, selling spells under the guise of prayers, leading to the execution of hundreds of thousands across Europe simply for being labeled as witches. Mindless Session has meticulously crafted every element of "The Black Witch," from the recording, sound, and equipment to the visuals, to deliver a compelling experience. The heavy yet measur
