About Superman Is Dead
SID, punk rock pioneers of Bali, were born and bred
in Kuta Rock City. The band is three chord
attitude-heavy young men, by name :
Bobby Kool (lead vocal, guitar, a dog lover and a graphic designer) , Eka Rock
(low ridin' family man, beer drinker, laid back
bass and backing vocal and a warm smilin' Rock 'N
Roll bandman, IT warior) , Jrx
(low ridin' beer drinking Rock 'N Roll prince
charming, drummer and a hairwax junkie, Bar
owner) The name 'Superman is Dead' started its'
evolution from Stone Temple Pilot's "Superman
Silvergun". The name moved on to "Superman is
Dead" cause they like the idea that there's no
such thing as a perfect person out there.
SID actually stumbled together in '95, drawn by their common love of Green Day and NOFX. Their influences soon extended to the punk 'n roll genre a la Supersuckers, Living End and Social Distortion, and here they stay. They say what they wanna say, how they wanna say it. In your face, to say it precisely.
SID public image, self described, is "Punk Rock a Bali" (think raw energy of NOFX vs Social Distortion supersonically fueled with beer-soaked Balinese Rockabilly attitude).
History ? SID produced their first three albums independently (the boys worked years of crappy night jobs), with fabulous, small scale indie labels 1997 "Case 15", 1999 "Superman is Dead", 2002 "Bad Bad Bad"(mini album, 6 tracks).
In March 2003, SID finally signed with Sony-BMG Indonesia after extended negotiations regarding their right to sing the majority of their tracks in English and have full artistic rights over their 'image'!! With that decision they single handedly became the first band from Bali to be invited to sign with a major recording label in Indonesia, the first band in their nation (to my knowledge) to be recording majority of songs in English and the first punk band in Indonesia to get the national exposure and promotion that working with a major label in a third world country provides. And so the history of Indonesian Punk Rock begins!
And as for the question that everyone wants to know, the infamous bomb in Bali happened about 75 M from their home, hangout center, punk rock boutique, bar and rehearsal studio that is also Jrx' house, in the heart of Kuta.
After panel beating back the rolling doors of the studio and shifting a little debris, rehearsals continued as usual. Yeah, they saw a lot, it sucked big time, but its' not gonna stop 'em!
And where are they now? At the end of 2002, one of the more respectable music mags here cited SID as "The Next Big Thing" for 2003. With the release of their fourth album "Kuta Rock City" followed by major air play nationally and in some countries overseas, coupled with the instant popularity of their newest film clip.
SID suddenly find themselves touring continuously throughout Indonesia. Last week they were in four major Indonesian cities, on three islands, in 7 days! Sometimes playing for free at underground scene clubs, sometimes at street skate parties or alternative band festivals, at lots of universities and even occasionally at "classy" venues who would have probably denied them entrance years ago!
Which means more beers for all.
In 2003 SID even got a mention in Time Asia.
They also won a few music awards “MTV Awards for The Best New Artist 2003”, “AMI Awards for The Best New Artist 2003” and nominated again in “AMI Awards 2006 for The Best Rock Album”.
October 2007, they did an amazing Australian tour, 8 cities, 16 gigs, 33 days with their strong D.I.Y work ethic.
June – July 2009, Superman Is Dead held An American Tour, 16 Gigs in 16 cities. 11 gigs of them were the ‘ Vans Warped Tour’ and the last 5 gigs were ‘From Bali With Rock’. They did a very hard work to succeed this excited tour, had crossed the big land from westcoast to eastcoast and got back to westcoast.
SID had share stages with international bands such as International Noise Conspiracy, NOFX, MXPX and Hoobastank.
They remain proud, boys from the streets of Kuta with a love of punk rock, beers and a good time. Ready for whatever comes next, excited about the next gig.

Para
pemula dan kelas lanjutan sering kali tidak pernah memperhatikan
pemilihan stik drum yang baik, itu bisa dimaklumi. Pemilihan stik drum
sangat penting karena ini salah satu penentu gaya dan nuansa dari sebuah
irama saat bermain. Sering kali seorang pemula memilih stik yang
terlihat bagus, terasa ringan, dan harga murah. Itu adalah cara memilih
srik drum yang salah.
Seorang
drummer yang baik akan memilih stik drum yang tepat untuk setiap
permainannya, oleh karena itu sebelum anda bermain drum sebaiknya
persiapkan dan pilihlah stik yang cocok untuk musik yang akan dimainkan,
karena itu akan menentukan gaya dan nuansa irama musik.
Jenis Kayu Stik Drum
Sebelum
kita masuk ke ukuran, saya ingin menunjukkan kepada Anda bagaimana
untuk memilih kayu terbaik untuk stik drum. Sering kali stik drum
terbuat dari 3 jenis kayu utama yaitu kayu Oak, Maple, dan Hickory.
- Kayu Oak, stik yang terbuat dari kayu oak biasanya terasa berat saat diayunkan dan mempunyai susunan serat yang sangat padat oleh karena itu memerlukan tenaga yang cukup bagi drummer - yang berarti Anda akan merasa setiap stroke di tangan Anda.
- Kayu Maple, stik drum yang terbuat dari kayu maple terasa ringan bila diayunkan dan stik ini mempunyai fleksibilitas besar. Karena kayu maple mempunyai serat yang tidak padat maka seorang drummer tidak perlu mengeluarkan tenaga yang cukup banyak saat bermain.
- Kayu Hickory, stik drum yang terbuat dari kayu hickory merupakan stik yang mempunyai berat medium dan paling umum digunakan. Stik bulat dengan kelenturan yang cukup dan seorang drummer tidak terlalu memerlukan tenaga yang banyak saat bermain.
Jadi saran saya sebelum bermain drum tentukanlah terlebih dahulu stik yang akan dipakai.
Memilih Stik
Ujung
dari stik drum adalah berbeda-beda dan memilih ujung stik juga sangat
penting bagi seorang drummer. Ada dua bentuk yang sangat mendasar dari
ujung stik drum yaitu berujung kayu dan berujung nilon. Keduanya
mempunyai penempatan yang berbeda, jadi perlu perhatikan dan aturannya.
- Stik Ujung Nilon, sebaiknya stik nilon digunakan untuk permainan drum elektrik. Hal ini digunakan untuk melindungi V-drum kit (drum pet) dari serpihan dan goresan. Stik ini juga menghasilkan suara symbal yang nyaring.
- Stik Ujung Kayu, stik berujung kayu lebih baik untuk musik rock atau sedikit keras. Pukulan keras dan menghasilkan suara cukup mantap (keras). Ada berbagai tips dan gaya yang bisa mendapat banyak pujian. Cara terbaik untuk memutuskan hal ini adalah dengan mencobanya sendiri, masing-masing drummer memiliki pendapat sendiri dalam hal ini.
Memilih Ukuran Stik
Setelah memilih kayu dan menentukan ujung stik, saat kita memilih ukuran dari stik drum. Ada tiga pilihan dasar ukuran stik.
- Ukuran 7A, ukuran stik ini sedikit tipis dan kecil, bermain musik jazz dan musik yang lembut sangat disarankan menggunakan stik ini. Drummer jazz dan drummer pemula di sarankan untuk menggukana stik ini, karena ringan.
- Ukuran 5A, ukuran stik ini yang paling umum dipakai drummer, bisa dipakai untuk jenis berbagai jenis aliran musik, dan mempunyai kekuatan yang solit. Terutama digunakan dalam musik rock.
- Ukuran 2B/5B, stik ini terasa berat saat dianyunkan, terlihat lebih besar dibanding dengan stik 7A atau 5A dan lebih keras. Sekarang tergantung gaya Anda, kemungkinan ini bisa membuat penampilan bermain yang lebih baik. Pastikan gaya musik yang Anda mainkan dan silahkan mencoba ukuran mana yang pas buat gaya bermain Anda.

Banyak
pilihan produk dan merek bila Anda ke toko musik dan jangan kuwatir
untuk menentukan pilihan karena Anda sudah sedikit memahami bagaimana
seharusnya memilih stick drum yang baik dan cocok untuk Anda.

Sekedar Iseng
Berawal
dari kejenuhan duduk menatap monitor akhirnya saya iseng-iseng membuat
desain T-shirt . Entah mengapa hingga saat ini saya masih gemar membuat
lagi dan lagi . hal ini tak lepas dari peran seorang ayah dan kakak saya
yang telah membimbing dan memberi masukan untuk membuay gambar . Semoga
kelak dapat berguna buat saya dan orang-orang di sekitar saya .
