JAKARTA - Jelusick, a band fronted by Dino Jelusick (vocals, keyboards), Ivan Keller (guitar), Luka Brodaric (bass), and Mario Lepoglavec (drums) started in 2024 by releasing a new video clip for their song Died.
Previously, Jelusick released a full album titled Follow the Blind Man in September 2023. There are 11 songs in this album, namely Follow the Blind Man, Animal Inside, Died, What I Want, Acid Rain, Chaos Master, The Great Divide, Fly High Again, Foreign of Cultures, The Bitter End, and Healer.
Died is the sixth song from the album Follow the Blind Man made by a video clip. Since February 2023, Jelusick has released a video clip for Foreign of Cultures, Fly High Again, The Great Divide, Chaos Master, Acid Rain
In this way, Jelusick wants to show his existence by using elegant means to convey his works to the public. They don't want to treat this debut album like most music labels that prioritize a small part of the song and play other songs.
"With the release of singles and video clips, we want to show our existence in the world. Our goal is to make music and convey it to the public in an elegant way," said Jelusick in his statement, Monday, January 15.
"Generally, the music label will only release three songs at the beginning before the album is released to the public. But we don't want that. Because if that's done, the remaining eight songs don't really get the public's attention," he continued.
"So, we don't care that after the album is released, the broadcast of each video clip will be less watched than before the album is released. We see this as the treasure' that we leave behind for our fans."
Meanwhile, Died's video clip tells the story of the conditions that people often face in life. Jelusick wants to tell the world that there is no problem trying something. If it fails, everything will end in time.
Regarding Jelusck's potential to penetrate the Indonesian music market, Dino's collaboration with Dewa 19 some time ago was considered as a way to open up. They have high hopes of appearing in Indonesia.
When he (Dino) sang the hits 'Arjuna' and studied the lyrics in Indonesian, the public was stunned. The thing we want to do is play in Indonesia and show our music and stage action to the Indonesian public. We are not a Kpop band and also not a pop band. We are a hard/heavy/progressive metal band with a musical accompaniment with a melody. We hope that music lovers in Indonesia like what we will present," said Jelusick.
