Devoured have a new album out, I know and I’ve been sent a promo of it for a review. However, I think to track their progress better, let’s start to learn about this band with their debut album, The Lost Kingdom. Any objections? Glad to hear there’s none! This short (slightly over 30 minutes) album, self-released by the band, offers 10 tracks (one of those is the intro). I don’t know about every track here,…
There’s no point in discussing labels are an integral part of every music scene (and business), Indonesia being no exception and as such I’ve decided to get in touch with people behind them also to give our readers the insight into how those labels work. Erick is my chatmate for quite a some time, and his Carnivorous Records being a very young label, I’ve had no difficulty in deciding which one is the first to…

Indonesian filmmakers got the idea of making a franchise (Danur, now with the 4th installment in the making) and spinoff (Asih, released in 2018, with the sequel being released in December 2020), quite similar to the cinematic world of The Conjuring/Annabelle/The Nun in the US cinema.
