Dead Vertical Is Grinding Again, Criticizing Political "Sheep Fight" Through Their Latest Single Work

Dead Vertical (Doc. Dead Vertical)

JAKARTA - The grindcore group from Jakarta, Dead Vertical is grinding again through a new single work entitled Divide et Impera.

According to an official statement received by VOI, Monday, this song was inspired by the increasingly chaotic life of the nation and state.

The politics of dividing the nation by the rulers and officials often hits all levels of society by using money, power, and apparatus to perpetuate their lust.

"Spewing slander, incitement, fighting, and terror is their old way of making people forced to submit helplessly under their oppression," said the band.

Looking back a little. Founded in 2001 in eastern Jakarta due to their shared hobbies of listening to extreme music, Boybleh (guitar, vocals), Deadbonz (bass), and Aryablood (drums) agreed to form a band called Dead Vertical.

The meaning of the band's name is 'the death of the vertical relationship between man and God due to worldly desires'.

Sharp lyrics with social themes, highly distorted music with nuances of thrash metal, punk, and death metal fused into one noise; grindcore. They have also consistently produced and invaded the extreme music scene in the country for more than two decades.
