Metalcore / Progressive / Metal

SYNDROME BIOGRAPHY It was early 90s when TrashMetal, DeathMetal and Grindcore massively invaded Indonesia. They were grounded at most cities of the Republic attacking metalheads all over the scenes. And one was SYNDROME. Founded in Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia on April 25th, 1992 by Wowod (Guitar), Henky (Drums), Rudy (Bass) formerly of BRUTALATOR, and Debronzes (Growl) formerly of METAL CORNER and THE HEADBANGERS, they were immensely gigging tracks of NAPALM DEATH, SEPULTURA, MASSACRE and OBITUARY. 1993 was the year of Res Imam (Guitar) completing the first 5 up-liners. Rudy (Bass) resigned in the same year, Anggoro of METAL LAW stepped in and out for a couple of gigs until Hakeem of SHOCKER got into the band's bassdom. Wowod (Guitar), Henky (Drums), Debronzes (Growl), Res Imam (Guitar) and Hakeem (Bass) lined up the band during the best year of 1993-1996 hitting the road of Java and Bali and producing some never-released-materials: "The Complication Before Dying" and "Vindictive Creation". By the coming of 1997, the band was complicatedly sinking and the guys wretchedly "abandoned the ship" in the name of idealism: "There was no way SYNDROME would ever make a great record over copying the mere concept of the bands they were covering". And then they shaded away for a very very long time.Someday at the fourth quarter of 2003, several save-water-drink-beer-pointless-meetings were held by Wowod, Debronzes and Hakeem taking the conversation somewhere into making a once-in-a-live-time crappy album and release it limitedly for fun (which later turned out to be a major lie for they ended up making a more than "decently" produced and published one). The former drummer Henky and guitarist Res Imam were on a call of some other big projects, thus then a new volunteer drummer Wiwid aptly took the chair, and a concession on no replacement guitarist was granted. The Four Horsemen Wowod, Debronzes, Hakeem and Wiwid were suddenly awake with some big ammo in their pockets and started to shoot out at early 2004, which was the beginning of compelling the materials, being sacked up in the studio by the second half of the year, editing and mastering them in the beginning of 2005, and...on August 2005...CD dispatched at last. SYNDROME calls their music Aggressive Metal...
