NASTY!

Oh WOW - PHERONA @pheronabali have done it again! “Menjagamu” (Take Care of You) is another bright alt-pop-punk hit from the guys! Hearing it is a PERFECT way to start the day. We are not only playing it heaps here in Bali on VOLCANO - but KATIE is also spinning it Asia-Wide on KOMODO where the track has become a favourite with listeners, particularly in LEBANON and KOREA! We have even spotted the song appearing as a new release feature on Arabic and Japanese music platforms - WOO OUTAA SPACE!

When a new album arrives at the VOLCANO studio it gets passed around for a listen. With VOLCANO being raw and alternative, we usually first explore tracks from an album that have the “E” EXPLICIT content symbol after the track name - these songs are most likely to have an “edge”. Soo...

Ummm, this is problematic. Our buddy 1STX_ @gdebhuwana.p has sent his new album “The World Won’t Wait” and ALL 10 TRACKS have the EXPLICIT content warning. OK dude, the challenge is accepted - VOLCANO is going to be playing them all! We kick it all off this week with “I Hate You”. NASTY!

It’s 4 years since MOM CALLED KILLER @momcalledkiller released new music. BUT, hang-on, we saw them play at THE BULLS BAR two weeks ago and those old-timers still kick ass! This week JONGO is featuring “Lunatic Space” as a “Jongo Retro Favourite”! GROWL!

Way back, a previous VOLCANO poster mentioned that we had seen a cryptic hint in the HARSON @itshrson music video for “Up and Down”. A cassette playing in the video seemed to be teasing an upbeat Pop-Punk rework. YES - Its ARRIVED! As with the original version of the song, Bayu Pramasatya @pramasatyabayu lends a hand and WOW this alternative arrangement kicks bigly! GREAT COVER ART!
