koil

KOIL has honed its hard-driving rock image over the years and emerged as one of Indonesia's biggest underground acts. Partial to black latex, rubber vests and platform shoes, the look is industrial Goth and the music an amalgam of slow, chunky guitar over samples of synthesized voices and haunting noises punctuated by the growls of Otong. The 30-year-old, with dreads down to his waist, personifies the band's DIY ethos, a trait that has earned it a fanatical cult following and critical acclaim. After two albums and a demo in 10 years, the band has emerged as the standard-bearer of Indonesia's fledgling alternative-rock scene.
