This time I will interview a hardcore band from the batang city that in a few months ago I was invited to perform in the event YOUTH FEST
# 6, the band is also included in the ranks of the old band & his own name
is well known in the scene HC in the country of Indonesia, The matter of flying
hours they have been playing too long from stage to stage & not just in the
city but also out of town, Let's please
enjoy my interview & THE HOLIDAY CIRCUSS.
hello brother, thank you for taking the time to answer
my interview, as the opening can be told when THE HOLIDAY CIRCUSS officially
stands & why did you decide to use that name ?
We stood around the year 2010, the name is spontaneous,
we imagine how unique the game in a circus, a variety of unique acrobatics
& a lot of dexterity, it became one of the reasons we make a clown mascot
& the name THE HOLIDAY CIRCUSS, but here we choose clown horror memorable
& Violent.
about the initial formation & idea to form THE HOLIDAY CIRCUSS
From the beginning of standing until now THE HOLIDAY
CIRCUSS has not changed much & the significant change is when we have to
change for drum position until finally we have to recruit an additional
drummer, from 2013 until now it is probably a solid formation that we believe,
our personnel currently is Irani (vocals), Rush (bass vocals), Ary (guitar)
& deady (drums).
We just issued the EP in 2016 ago, after that we
continue with the band tour in 2017, we have the discourse to make a full album
in 2018 later.
HC scene itself came in early 1998 in our city, it was preceded by the presence of several bands such as Do not Worry, Noise Brigade & Stand StiLL, in addition to the birth of several bands HC at that time also present punkrock bands and herbert
I think personally while it is still in the corridor to
advance the HC scene is not a problem, even if they give a negative or positive
HC stamp they will remain responsible for what they say or do in their
respective lives. and if we say relevant or not we think it is legitimate to
apply to each other's life, the problem of positive & negative is very
extensive, such as lifestyle, the scene and when the action stage, very broad
& complex
We only feel a small part of the wheel of life, of
course we want to live this more meaningful or meaningful at least for
ourselves & for our respective families. The journey of life to the
religious should we start with a change from ourselves to better understand the
various works of the creator in this context is the god
The difference is obviously there, if in the big city
there may be many supporting facilities for increasing the scene, including
geographical location as well as the plural people in thinking & origin of
each person, for small town constraints are also many, but do not discourage
our militancy to Stay afloat in this scene, with high spirit & keep
fighting insyaallah we will go forward.
actually our band tour series delayed for 1 year with
the reason of each personnel busy, after the year 2017 it can be realized, our
tour also can not be separated from suport friends out of town who have been
willing to make a gigs for us to play so we can promote about EP from us,
without friends all we also can not anything. with the tour we run we can add a
lot of friendship & also many stories of course, we are also salute also
amazed with the friends that we have come in our tour series
I think it's up to those who judge, our music is made
up of a lot of influences like trash metal, HC and even punk, obviously we keep
packing our music with a more modern sound appetite, which is heavier as the
typical color of THE HOLIDAY CIRCUSS & maybe we Will call ourselves with
metal HC.
There is one more unique from your band, your drummer
is in the city of bandung that is hundreds of kilometers from the base camp THE
HOLIDAY CIRCUSS, how do you run it ?
the problem of distance is not a problem, many things
that make it easier to stay in communication, just for the intensity of joint
exercises in one study rather reduced & we replace by utilizing technology
such as sending song material through social media or email
what themes are the inspirations of THE HOLIDAY
CIRCUSS songs
Our lyrics tell a lot about life, social, politics
& about the issues in the scene, many of our songs are inspired from
personal experience, we always try to be critical in everything, encourage
young people to be better & have a sense of pride for themselves
themselves.
Do you think why live concert JKT 48 now is very rare
?
I myself as a JKT 48 fans are also disappointed with
this situation hhahahahaaa, maybe now have been bored to see the performance of
JKT 48, maybe also some of the personnel have been out or even busy dating, the
culture of the fans of this country is quickly bored & maybe that too One
of the closest things about the above question. But however JKT 48 is a very
successful icon product & favored by TV followers from all over Indonesia
Actually both are very important, whether it's a small
gigs or big event, between the two things are all plus minus & the problem
depends from the band each who can translate. For us small gigs or big event is
a matter of name & the important thing is how to master the action stage.
Hmmm difficult questions, if I personally prefer to watch television than youtube, although the news on television is often late from the internet, for youtube I personally also often but in portions less than watching television. From the internet only a reference if the thing we are looking for does not exist from the television
messages for fans, friends, family & HC activists
from wherever they are ?
Remain committed to what we live, music HC, punk or
metal is not just a trend, smart in behaving something & stand on your own
feet which means stronger also boast . fight for pride & pride for fight
Thanks from friends THE HOLIDAY CIRCUSS who have answered
some questions from me, I hope you add special & continue to exist in the
work. Until I meet again with my next content
