Introducing: Roman Foot Soldiers

To continue supporting new fresh talents from Indonesian music scene, Sinjitos Records is now introducing one of the freshest band from Jakarta scene, Roman Foot Soldiers. Formed in Vancouver, Canada and took their name from their fascination over epic war movies, the sextet offered an eclectic variation of sounds with indie pop as its musical backbone. The results are a set of catchy, uplifting tunes that can be described as "refreshing just like a summer breeze". Although they are relatively unknown, songs written by Tim (vocals), Reza (bass), Gogor (guitar), Pria (guitar), Josh (keys) and Luky (drums) spoke by themselves and quickly drawn attention from anyone who were lucky enough to catch them. In a self-organized gig in Hard Rock Cafe Jakarta, Roman Foot Soldiers successfully awed the unsuspecting audiences with their repertoirs.

To further introduce the band to wider audience, Sinjitos Records launched a free single from Roman Foot Soldiers called "Streets Without Signs" that can be downloaded and distributed freely. The band will enter the studio to work on their debut album in 2011.

There Will Be Blood: Never Mind The Brandals, Here's BRNDLS

Sinjitos Records proudly present the new free, downloadable single "Start Bleeding!" from BRNDLS, the new incarnation of Jakarta's rock n' roll heroes The Brandals. The new moniker is not only signaled another new musical ventures from The Brandals but also marked the band's new lineup with PM (guitar) and Radit (bass) joining longtime members Tony (guitar) and the Annash brothers Eka (vocal) and Rully (drums). "Start Bleeding" will serve as a teaser for the upcoming BRNDLS album "DGNR8" , their first since 2007's "Brandalisme". The new album was produced by Joseph Saryuf and will be released by Sinjitos Records on January 2011.

Lyrically, "Start Bleeding!" is another example of the band's sharp social commentary. It documented the recent Indonesia's condition: a nation in tatters and suffering from the endless political turmoils and manipulations. The politicians' greedy and "blood-sucking" nature is the main inspiration behind "Start Bleeding!"'s gruesome and cynical lyrics. Musically, it is a departure from the trademark The Brandals' traditional rock n' roll sound to raunchier, more distorted yet fresher sound. The song's modern production and Eka's singing style will definitely surprise everyone. It need to be heard to believed.

"Start Bleeding" was released on the internet on Nov. 16th at 6 PM and received mainly positive feedbacks from fans and fellow musicians. It reached 1,000 downloads in less than 24 hours and the number keeps counting.

Coming Soon

Who is this guy? You will find out about him soon.

Recap: Lantai Merah Tour, ICEMA Nominations, and New Surprises!

How how are you guys? We know we haven't update this thing for quite some time, pardon our chronic laziness.

Many things had happened in the Sinjitos camp during our days of blog-posting absence that are hopefully worth your time, if you haven't read it on our Facebook and Twitter (twitter.com/sinjitos) pages. First, we did some shows with Monkey to Millionaire, Santamonica, and The Porno in Solo, Yogyakarta, and Bogor for "Lantai Merah" tour awhile ago. It was a great success, other than the ransacking thugs in Yogya show that forced us to stop the gig before Monkey to Millionaire can play. Don't worry, Yogyakarta. We will be back! The Bogor show also featured some upcoming artists that could be in our roster soon: former Pasto member Bayu Risa, longtime noise-rockers Denial, and fresh psychedelic rock n' roll machine The Black Mustangs. You will hear more about them very, very soon. Other than them, we still a couple more surprises in our back pockets, so stay tune.

Other news is Santamonica's "Bobsessed" and Monkey to Millionaire's "Strange Is The Song In Our Conversation" are nominated in Indonesian Cutting Edge Music Awards (ICEMA) 2010 in the Favorite Alternative Song Category. Regardless what you think about such awards, just have some fun and vote for them on: http://icema.co.id/main-voting-nominator.php . We are not hoping much other than scoring some free foods on the actual award show but grabbing something home would be cool, plus it will give us and the bands a reason to post something on our Facebook pages.

Don't forget to check our merchandise blog: sinjitosmerch.blogspot.com for CDs and merchandises, including Monkey to Millionaire's Strange Is The Song In Our Conversation EP + T-shirt package that now can be ordered from anywhere! Speaking of merchandise, Monkey to Millionaire just released an extremely-limited t-shirt that can be ordered here.

We also received questions about Gugun And The Bluesbug "Turn It On" that apparently re-released by another label, we can safely say that it is released illegally without our permission. That also explains the missing detail on the album credits and non-existed band photos. We'll definitely do something about it. The actual CD is still available in stores and can be ordered online (check sinjitosmerch.blogspot.com for more info).
