Scene Surabaya
Underground rock scene in Singapore began with the more grown-growing band of independent beraliran death metal / grindcore around mid 1995.

Member of the organization which is the embryo of terbentuknya underground metal scene in Surabaya are deliberately limited, only about 7-10 bands only.
Independent first time the plan was an underground rock concert in the Youth Park, but this plan failed because it was rushing to consolidation in the scene. After the clear and begin growing underground metal scene in Singapore at the end of December 1997 the organization officially disbanded Independent. This work is done in order to expand the network to the tersekat not-divider, or a box-terkotak community.

They are also more intense in the event-event black metal music because the number of black metal band that appears. The event and a successful black metal was held in Surabaya such as ARMY OF Darkness I and II.

Indie Indonesia Era 2000-an
How the movement of independent music scene Indonesia in 2000-an era? The presence of the internet technology and e-mail clearly contributed to the development of this scene. Access to information and communication that are open to create a wide network (networking) among the broad community in Indonesia. Bands and new communities with a lot of pop music style that offers more variety. Trend watching the indie label-released album competition bands also enliven the local, at least this effort is useful documentation of the history of tens of years.
Interesting now is that the use of dominance idiom `indie 'and not the underground scene to define a non-mainstream music locally. Had occurred and polemic debate klasikmengenai term `indie or underground 'in this land of water. Some people regard the term `underground 'bias due to the fact the more days the more underground bands that` sell-out, somehow contracted the major labels, change the style for the sake of the music business or in demand sweet album to sell tens of thousands of pieces. While some prefer to use the idiom indie because more `elastic 'and for example, more friendly to the bands that do not play extreme music style. Although it seemed more compromise, this latter term indie is also increasingly used by national mass media, far
leave orthodox term `underground 'of yesteryear.
Exclaim him debate the indie / underground, major label or indie label, hundreds of new band was born, many tens of indie-label release many albums, thousands distro / clothing shop opened across the country. Infrastructure scene non-mainstream music is also more established from day to day. They seemingly do not care anymore polarization with indie-major label that does not substantially more. Playing music while sebebas may be more fun to be `commander 'now you can see the biography.

Band-indie bands that participate in this compilation include Burger Kill, Puppen, Papi, rotten To The Core, Full of Hate and the Waiting Room, as the only original band Jakarta.
Bands that had raised by this community Reverse between PAS and other Puppen. PAS own in 1993 menorehkan history as a band of a first independently released album. Mini-album which they bertitel "Four Through the SAP" ludes cassettes sold in 5000 is quite a short time. Mastermind forth the idea that released the album independently PAS is (alm) Marudut Samuel.

Scene Surabaya
Underground rock scene in Singapore began with the more grown-growing band of independent beraliran death metal / grindcore around mid 1995. History terbentuknya started from Singapore Expo event (such as Fair in DKI Jakarta - Red) where underground bands such as metal, Slowdeath, Torture, Dry, Venduzor, Bushido manggung at a music event in the event.
After the event that each band is then agreed to establish an organization called the Independent. Base camp is the purpose of the organization's establishment as a unifier and venue of information dissemination among musicians / underground metal band this time is concentrated in the area Ngagel Mulyo or property right in the studio band Retri Beauty (death metal band with all personelnya girl, now RIP - Red) . Member of the organization which is the embryo of terbentuknya underground metal scene in Surabaya are deliberately limited, only about 7-10 bands only.
Independent first time the plan was an underground rock concert in the Youth Park, but this plan failed because it was rushing to consolidation in the scene. After the clear and begin growing underground metal scene in Singapore at the end of December 1997 the organization officially disbanded Independent. This work is done in order to expand the network to the tersekat not-divider, or a box-terkotak community.
In the times before the last Independent bubarnya organization, division record label they had recorded an album released a few pieces belonging to bands death metal / grindcore Surabaya. For example debut album Slowdeath who owned bertitel "From Sordid mindless enthusiasm to Self-Destruction" (September 96), Dry debut album titled "Under the veil of Religion" (97), Brutal Torture "carnal Abuse," Wist "Cemetery of Celerage" belong to debut album Fear Inside
the bertitel "Mindestruction". Following years, then in the underground metal Surabaya dibanjiri by-label album label owned growl, Thandus, Holy Terror, Kendath to Pejah.
Instead Independent dibentuklah and Surabaya Underground Society (Sus) in the new year night 1997 in the campus University of 45, when the event rampancy diselenggarakannya I. At that time in Surabaya also has a lot of pop bands with a new flow of black metal music. One of the death metal band that is long, Dry and then move the music along with the concept derasnya influence of black metal music in Surabaya that epoch.
Survive more or less only a few months only, in the sus the same year was split in it. Bands of black metal beraliran then separated to form a new vessel named ARMY of darkness that has a base location in the area of Karang Rejo. Unlike the black metal, bands to death metal then decided not form a new organization. Then in September 1997 event was held in the rampage II IKIP Surabaya. This event and then record their own history as the most successful event in Surabaya that epoch. 25 death metal bands and black metal show since morning to evening and comedy by approximately 800 - 1000 people. Soul, black metal band Bekasi origin also appear in the band even as the invitation.
Extreme metal scene in Surabaya at that time was dominated by more bands than black metal band death metal / grindcore. They are also more intense in the event-event black metal music because the number of black metal band that appears. The event and a successful black metal was held in Surabaya such as ARMY OF Darkness I and II.
Right on 1 June 1997 dibentuklah Inferno underground community of 178 located in the markasnya Dharma Husada (Jl. Prof. DR. Moestopo, Red). In a somewhat similar to home-shop (Ruko) recorded this business there are some divisions, namely, distribution, studio music, indie label, fanzine, cafe and event organizer for the event underground in Surabaya.

This event was classified as less successful at the same time also held a black metal event. Unfortunately, this is also followed by the mandegnya process penggarapan POST MANGLED zine that does not kunjung the latest issue edisinya until now.
Thus, to anticipate the occurrence of stagnansi or information gaps in the scene, was born and then Line Newsletter HARD that the first time in February 1999. Newsletter fotokopian with the format that has a number of 4 page review of many different events music underground metal, punk and HC not only in Singapore but wider again. Positive response, according to them any more justeru come from outside the city of Surabaya itself. Somehow, according to their public underground rock in Surabaya apresiatif less and less support for the publication of independent types of fanzine or newsletter is.

Division indie label's Inferno at least 178 to about 10 label album is still using the name as the name Independent label them. Just enter the year 2000 the label Inferno 178 Productions produces the official album's oldest punk band in Surabaya, the sinners, entitled "Ajang Hate." Next label

Bali Scene
Talking underground scene in Bali is back we will find the metal community as pelopornya. First mover is the community in 1921 in Denpasar, Bali Corpsegrinder. Participate in it exist among others, Dede Suhita, Putra Pande, Age Grindcorner and Sabdo Moelyo. Dede is a megaton metal magazine editor who published in
Jogjakarta, Putra Pande is one of the pioneers Webzine metal Indonesia

To support the bands Bali, drummer SID, Jerinx some friends and then open the Maximmum The Rock N 'Roll Monarchy (The Max), a music pub in the way of Poppies, Kuta. Often rock regular events held in this place.
Indie Indonesia Era 2000-an
How the movement of independent music scene Indonesia in 2000-an era? The presence of the internet technology and e-mail clearly contributed to the development of this scene. Access to information and communication that are open to create a wide network (networking) among the broad community in Indonesia. Bands and new communities with a lot of pop music style that offers more variety. Trend watching the indie label-released album competition bands also enliven the local, at least this effort is useful documentation of the history of tens of years.
Interesting now is that the use of dominance idiom `indie 'and not the underground scene to define a non-mainstream music locally. Had occurred and polemic debate klasikmengenai term `indie or underground 'in this land of water. Some people regard the term `underground 'bias due to the fact the more days the more underground bands that` sell-out, somehow contracted the major labels, change the style for the sake of the music business or in demand sweet album to sell tens of thousands of pieces. While some prefer to use the idiom indie because more `elastic 'and for example, more friendly to the bands that do not play extreme music style. Although it seemed more compromise, this latter term indie is also increasingly used by national mass media, far
leave orthodox term `underground 'of yesteryear.
Exclaim him debate the indie / underground, major label or indie label, hundreds of new band was born, many tens of indie-label release many albums, thousands distro / clothing shop opened across the country. Infrastructure scene non-mainstream music is also more established from day to day. They seemingly do not care anymore polarization with indie-major label that does not substantially more. Playing music while sebebas may be more fun to be `commander 'now you can see the biography.
