JAKARTA - The electronic-industrial unit Sic Mynded released the single Just Another Day on December 17, 2021. This song tells about mental health and suicide prevention, taken from the personal experience of the frontman, Oddie Octaviandi.
"Mental health issues are one of the topics that are widely discussed during this pandemic, with the impact of many people, not only economically and physically, but also psychologically or mentally," Oddie said in an official statement received by VOI, Wednesday.
In fact, Just Another Day is an old song that first appeared in 1995 and is featured on the band's debut album.
However, this time, it reappeared in dark new wave music elements through the touch of the band's drummer, who also acts as producer, Marcell Siahaan.
Not only that, the new version of Just Another Day is also made with layers of synth sounds and keyboards from Adra Karim, guitar licks from Gatot Alindo, and the grooves are guarded by bass player Aldi Pagaruyung.
When planning to remake the song Just Another Day, Oddie decided to replace most of the original English lyrics into Indonesian.
He did this so that stories about his experiences with mental health problems could be conveyed more easily.
Just Another Day is expected to be a single to close the “gloomy era of the pandemic” and welcome a new year full of hope in which Sic Mynded and other bands can return to their creative activities freely.
