Rock Group, Anomalyst Reveal Double A-Side Single From Upcoming LP
Two years in the making, finally rock unit called Anomalyst are ready to give you a taste of their full-length album with double a-side single release. Christianto Ario Wibowo (vocalist/guitarist), Aryo Respati Xavier (vocalist/guitarist), Farizky Wijanarko (drum), and Rigaskara (bass) revealed two songs “Senyawa” and “Losing Game” at the first day of this month. Both tracks are taken from their upcoming debut LP, “Segara”. If you’re the type of person who is up to date with recent news or breaking news, then the mysterious case of Wayan Mirna Salihin’s death last year from cyanide might be familiar. The complicated case of a suspected homicide inspired Chritianto Ario Wibowo, to write lyrics and compose music from it and it is later titled “Senyawa”. “The inspiration of “Senyawa” came from Mirna’s case and cyanide coffee that used to be the hot topic of national media,” explained Ario, “compound – in the form of water, cyanide, iron or human itself – is like a double-edged knife: it could benefit humans or used as a way to spread hatred and crime.” He continued that in the end, all compounds in the universe will blend into one with all of its harmony and clashes. It could be the beginning of life and the end.
On the other hand, “Losing Game” talks about the never ending search of mundane life. It is cleverly described on the music video of the single which shows an effort to gain muscles and strength. Besides a music video for “Losing Game”, Anomalyst also released a lyrics video for “Senyawa”. Both singles have been released digitally on Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, Deezer, and Tidal. The full length debut album of Anomalyst titled “Segara” will be unveiled at the end of this month or September 30th to be exact. Below is the full tracklist of the album, and watch the video of “Losing Game” and “Senyawa”.
