Soloevent.id – God Bless is an Indonesian rock music legend. They have been music for 45 years!
Although it is more than four decades, but the works of God Bless is just a little. Until now Ahmad Albar and his friends have 7 full albums and 3 compilation albums.
The recent album is Cermin 7, which was released on December 17, 2016. 9 of the 12 songs on this album are the re-recorded material of the Mirror album in 1982. While the other, namely “Damai”, “Kukuh”, and “Bukan Mimpi Bukan Ilusi” are new works.
God Bless thinks Cermin deserves a new breath because the songs on the album have strength. In the past, the songs were recorded with simple technology.
Yes, Cermin is often referred to as the most idealistic and biting God Bless album on the musical side. So don’t be surprised if the arrangement sounds complicated. If compared to the first album, the production of the Mirror is more taken care of because the concept and material are prepared long ago.
That said, Cermin is a symbol of God Bless’s rebellion against the Indonesian music industry which tends to be commercial and only shows pop music with a love theme in a narrow perspective.
At that time, Cermin became a barometer for other bands. Anyone who can perform songs on the album, the band is said to be of high quality.
On Saturday (05/12/2018), the legend will perform at the Volcano Rock Festival concert held at Pandanarang Stadium, Boyolali. They will be the opening act for hard rock band from Sweden, Europe, who are dropping in Indonesia on the series of the Walk the Earth World Tour.
Mmmm, what kind of song is it from the Cermin album that God Bless will be singing at that night’s concert?
