"Sequel of Sunday", Band Metal Jakarta yang Jadi "Band of The Week" di Amerika

Suara.com - Kurang direspon di dalam negeri, tak membuat band metal asal Jakarta, Sequel of Sunday ini patah semangat dalam berkarya.

Di tengah-tengah gempuran musik K-Pop, yang kini seolah menjadi raja di Indonesia, Sequel of Sunday berhasil mendapatkan celah untuk mengibarkan karyanya ke telinga pencinta musik.

Hasilnya pun positif. Band yang digawangi Danny (vokal/ gitar), Asep (gitar/vokal), Rasta (bass), Johan (gitar), dan Ikhsan (drum) itu, berhasil tampil di sejumlah ajang bergengsi Tanah Air. Sebut saja Jakcloth Summerfest 2013, Jakcloth YES 2013, dan Bandung Clothing.

Karya-karya band beraliran post-hardcore itu juga sampai menarik minat vokalis band Storm The Sky Australia, William Jarrat, untuk berkolaborasi, membuat sebuah lagu berjudul Shinedown Your Sun.

Pascakolaborasi tersebut, Sequel of Sunday pun kian berkibar. Mereka digempur jurnalis mancanegara yang hendak mengangkat profilnya. Seperti media dari Negeri Matador, Spanyol, Webzine.

Tak cuma itu, berkat kegemilangan karyanya, Sequel of Sunday juga dinobatkan sebagai band of the week oleh salah satu media musik top di Negeri Paman Sam. Lalu, pernah pula menjadi Band Fan Promotion, lagi-lagi di Amerika.

Penasaran dengan musiknya, simak saja salah satu single Sequel of Sundah berjudul Fake Rebel Army.

Ini liriknya: 

I may be on the side of the angels, but don't think for one second that I am one of them

There is an evil side in me, and now I can feel my rage over everyone in this scene
Your counterfeit motive, fake personality won't get you far to a life you've been dreaming about
I hope the dark swallows you alive
I hope the dark swallows you alive

You f****n suck!
You're just a gimmick, a f****n fake rebel
Your resistance has earned my disgust

What is a revolution when you know nothing at all?
What is a rebellion when you read this all wrong?
Your words are dead to me
You might be breathing but you're dead to me

Integrity and quality are two things I want to show you

I will not be the one who sentences you to death or the one who gives you so much trouble
But deep down in my heart, I hope you won't survive when Judgement Day comes

You're basic and ordinary, how could you look at yourself so high?
You're basic and ordinary, how could you look at yourself so high?
