Rotor - Behind The 8th Ball


Fiuuuh..., after almost 2 month doing searching finally thanks God! i found this one, the most rare and my most favorit everlasting local thrash metal album. This was the first full lenght studio album by the first to be known of Indonesian band who played thrash metal genre- Rotor. Released in 1992 under Airo Records ( the same label which released Edane's first album) in Audio Cassettes format. Irvan Sembiring, the front man was doing his best job for putting this album as the most essential and crucial thrash metal album with great lyrics inside it. It was recorded in the time when recording session still uses direct live recording with 8 way track channels. All the songs were raging while full speed drumming from Bakkar ( The Drum Player ) running within, good rifting, thrashy voice, all that needed to destroy the traditional paradigm in Indonesia music culture at the time. The pioneer would always be the legend, and that why Rotor would always be the one. If you want to dig about Indonesian metal music history, this one is a must have!
