Retrospective Video of Deathrockstar AMN #8 : Vague, Fever To Tell, Windyasari, Sir Dandy and Merah

So Deathrockstar just published a retrospective video of AMN #8, the one we played at a few months ago. It has some footages and a few words from the performers regarding the event. Fever To Tell, Windyasari, Sir Dandy and Merah also played. If you're interested, the first 2-3 minutes of the video is all us. 

AMN #8 was the last show we played with our original bassist, Adit. Despite breaking-my-guitar-string-halfway-through-the-second-song incident, I think we played quite well. Thank you to our good friend Ken Jenie for being our sound guy that evening and made sure we didn't sound like total shit. The song during our footage is called "Retreat". Check a few post below for the full video of the song here. It's also one of our newer songs. Fingers crossed for another EP our next year.

Here it is :

Things We Do

Not that anyone particularly should care, but Vague consist of Adit on bass, Jan on drum, and me, Yudhis on guitar and vocals. Adit and occasionally, Jan does backup vocals. We all have day jobs and work full time. Vague is one of our few outlets that provides us freedom to do whatever we want, to actually create something of our own. It's an escape from our mundane 'normal' life at best and a silly attempt at our 'artistic' impulses at worst.

Adit also plays bass for Obsesif Kompulsif who plays thrash/grind. Check them out here : Obsesif Kompulsif myspace. Adit also runs Newbornfire zine, which focuses on local DIY punk/hardcore scene. Go here to have a read.

Jan fronts/sings for a youth-crew hardcore band, Raincoat. Here's their myspace page : Raincoat myspace

I'm in a new project called Clatter, which is largely an instrumental band. It's Battles/Slint/Toe/Yo La Tengo inspired. It's not really worth mentioning at this point since it's so premature.

Jan and I also help out our good friend, Ken Jenie with his project, Jirapah. Listen to it here : Jirapah myspace . I did a post on Jirapah on my own blog along with links to all its releases. Click here!

P.s. read this book and try to resist the urge to start your own band!
