Voice Of Baceprot Leaks Debut Album Through The Enemy Of Earth Is You

Voice Of Baceprot (Doc. VOB)

JAKARTA - Voice Of Baceprot (VOB) spoke about the negative impact of climate change in their hometown and its surroundings with a booming new single.

Summarizing vocalist/guitarist Marsya's anxiety, bassist Widi, and drummer Sitti after witnessing the devastating natural disasters that hit throughout 2016, The Enemy of Earth is You is a song that expresses their broken heart and suffering.

It is a song that summarizes our hatred for anyone who is the enemy of Earth. On the other hand, the single reminds us not to be one of them," Marsya explained in his statement.

With the help of NTRL producer and guitarist Coki Bollemeyer, the band from Garut began to rearrange the flow of song rhythms, initially based on some of the most common nu-metal riffs from the late nineties and early nineties, to assert their anxiety and collective anger.

The result is a composition that articulates sadness but wrapped in a distinctive VOB loud voice.

Their repeated vocal directorship involvement, Irvan Natadiningrat, also revived the song, with Marsya's intense vocals symbolizing pain flowing through her veins.

Coinciding with the launch of The Enemy of Earth is You, VOB has aligned itself with more than 6,600 musicians and music industry workers around the world by joining Music Declaration Emergency (MDE), a global movement that brings together musicians, music industry professionals, and organizations to use music as a means to raise public awareness about climate issues and protection of life on Earth.

With their NO MUSIC ON A DEAD PLANET campaign, MDE has garnered a lot of support from some of the world's most famous artists and bands, including Billie Eilish, Arcade Fire, The 1975, Imogen Heat, Fatboy Slim, Major Lazer, and Tom Morello.

Available on digital streaming platforms starting May 18, The Enemy of Earth is You will also be included in their debut album, Retas, which will be released in July.
