Thibaut Devigne Some pretty good hardcore punk here. Screeching vocals over fast and catchy riffs: it's a good recipe for a headbang. It's long enough for the listener to appreciate, yet short enough that it doesn't overstay its welcome. Good stuff. Favorite track: Lawan Dan Hancurkan.
Bianca Valentino

Bianca Valentino One of the most exciting Australian hardcore releases of 2021. It’s charged by a sense of revolutionary urgency. Lyrically exploring themes of politics, religion, feminism and queer rights in South East Asia and beyond. Vocalist Alda delivers authoritative vocals in Bahasa Indonesia and English, engaging with both her own and collective narratives, giving the songs real substance and authenticity—the record is deep. Danceable thrash! Favorite track: Cops N Klan.

Santau 65 02:30
Santau pusaka, meracun penanda Saling membunuh, saudara, tetangga Hati remuk redam, masa depan kelam Militer membantai, komunis didakwa Santau 65 Kena santau, 65 Santau tanah air, derita 65 Siapa saja yang diperkaya, Untuk trauma kita semua? Apa mereka kira, kita akan lupa? Sungai muntah darah Tersumbat gunungan mayat Santau 65 Kena santau, 65 Deras merah darah Mengalir ke muara Meresap ke tanah Ratusan ribu nyawa Melayang tersia Kulihat temanku disana Rasa sakit ini, untuk siapa? Militer membantai, Komunis didakwa Tanah air kena santau Untuk siapa? Untuk siapa? Untuk siapa??

The pit of ignorance and arrogance is bottomless When you value personal privileges over collective responsibility Whose side are you on? A growing war on reality is looming Which side are you really on? Upon the ever piling mass graves of the colored poor, Long waiting lines in the graveyards Rain white whinges of entitled tears, The real victims like u wouldn’t believe! Wrong side of history in a war on reality, A short goosestep shy of the right Caught in the webs of an online conspiracy Brain reeling, believing the lies Off yer scone on alt right shit, Drunk on ur own kool aid Off yer scone on yer mobile phone, Lost in ur own cooked shit March with white supremacists are ok isn’t it, I mean u both agree masks sucks! This plandemic isn’t real anyway Poor countries are just fake news; The numbers are lies, the deaths are fake, orchestrated by elites And yes it is time to let the world knows; (obviously - the traumatizing fact that) That the real victim is you! Yes you, you, you ; you, you, you! What is even real, Since the year 2020? There’s no standing ground, It’s a war! It’s a war on reality! Off yer scone, too far gone Twisted in ur own web of lies Oh Q Klux Klowns A whole life spent Struggling in privilege town

Derak Tulang 01:53
Kehampaan malam Yang tak berujung Pandemi melintir Menebar getir Derak tulang Termakan zaman Penguasa tak kan Pernah bisa diandalkan Ratus ribu nyawa Berguguran ringan Hari sesak menapaki Rongsok puing angan Derak tulang Termakan zaman Penguasa tak kan Bisa diandalkan Kusebut namamu Satu persatu Tak akan kubiarkan Hilang termakan waktu Tulang, debu, tanah Berserak menyeru Kenanganmu tak kan hilang Nyalamu tak akan padam

Ad nauseam stultus sathanas Lit this fire of edgelord white supremacy De stupidos dom sathanas Brats with tombs of empty glory Go make ur corpse paint A permanent fixture Finish the job Ur a mortuary picture Swastika-laden bullshit occult Didnt you hear? I’m 1/10 viking on my grandmothers side To dine in Valhalla, I’m a keyboard warrior Did you just get triggered? Soyboi? Snowflake? Go make ur corpse paint A permanent fixture Finish the job Ur a mortuary picture I’m the real victim “White culture” is under attack It’s not a swastika I’m reclaiming it for buddhism! (but no I’m not a buddhist) Yeah I listen to burzum Varg ubergruben fuhrer So what, u wanna cancel me? Im not a Nazi, I’m a socialist I mean, a truth seeker The antipodean resistance Needs more warriors like me But I need to breath freely This is a dictatorship These masks can kill me I don’t have respiratory problems but Respect my authoritaay Incel white metal heads Warriors of incel supremacy Long live edgelord warriors No I won’t be accountable! Fuck this cancel culture Varg ubergruben fuhrer! Dog whistling to the tune of Did you just get triggered? Soyboi? Ya fuckin snowflakes!

The scene grossly repeats itself in my head The background's a blur wading deep in blood A violent new order of distrust and hate A genocidal war where the shooting hasn't stopped Indo china lost forever Indo china you destroyed her Indo china don't you forget her Indo china, you robbed and raped her So cold the killings somehow captured on film Disturbed me in such a way that i felt unclean Again and again a million shots to my brain An array of dead lined Streets for parade Indo china lost forever Indo china you destroyed her Indo china don't you forget her Indo china, you robbed and raped her No one really cares how they've been at war In their eyes the many years of pain i saw The countless deaths and casualties The crimes against humanity The scene grossly repeats itself in my head The background's a blur wading deep in blood A violent new order of distrust and hate A genocidal war where the shooting hasn't stopped Indo china lost forever Indo china you destroyed her Indo china don't you forget her Indo china, you robbed and raped her And what has war left for the children For they have become orphans And they're dying of starvation Who do they blame when their rears have dried We all have to pay for We all die inside My indo china

Ancient sacred lands Death by thousand cuts Feld by iron hands To feed their capo death cults Pilbara, West Papua Borneo, pangunan Marikana, carmichael Aberfan, Rio Tinto Santa rita, kuzbass Our lands are battle grounds You break the bones of our mountains You drill the blood from our land Forced to fight and die Or flee and rot in camps Indigenous land resist Our hearts our soil our land

The land is burning Its people’s bleeding The bells are ringing This silence is deafening Chained and murdered 200 years and counting An unbroken maze laden with traps Destroying spirits, shatter families These cities built on bodies Of its First Nation people The boundary roads , Separation streets remain Your jail cells are murder holes Your jailers, executioners The killers commended And protected by your laws That unfairly target The lands very own people Everyone’s complicit Until we stop Indigenous deaths in custody At the hands of colonisers Stop the silence Stop the murder Generational trauma of this on going genocide Stop the silence stop Indigenous death in custody The killers protected by your laws Everyone’s complicit Stop this massacre stop Chained and murdered 200 years and counting When will we say ENOUGH!

about

Jalang play fast-paced and danceable D-beat punk.Vocalist Alda’s lyrics are delivered in Bahasa Indonesia and English, engaging with both her own and collective narratives that explore politics, religion, feminism and queer rights in South East Asia, and the diaspora in so-called Australia. ‘Jalang’ in Bahasa Indonesia is one of those ‘odd’ words: when describing the masculine it means wild, feral, undomesticated; while for feminine figures it translates as promiscuous, slutty or evil — something the band aims to reclaim as a mark of feminine pride.

Recorded by Jason Fuller (Goatsound) at Tender Trap Studios in Melbourne, Santau is 11 tracks of incandescent punk energy from this supergroup of Melbourne underground music, tackling real world issues of politics, power and protest. Next-level musical performances, inspirational song writing and the relentless fury of Alda’s vocals combine to produce one of the most intelligent, crucial and viscerally exciting Australian punk releases in years.
