You won't know what hit you until it's too late. Then
you're already zombiefied, stumbling to the circlepit, led by the insane
blasting and twisted rythmic call to arms. The stage is the altar of Indonesias
most legendary brutal death metal band JASAD, and you better prepare for this
relentless attack from the dark corners of Java. This is pure Indonesian
brutality.
JASAD is one of Indonesia´s brutal death veterans since the
90´s and their fanbase reaches far from Indonesia and Asia, around the metal
world. OEF is thrilled to announce JASAD's first appearance ever on European
soil, the first stop on the Bandung Blasting Euro Tour 2015! See you guys in
the pit!!!
Bio
The band was formed by bassist Yuli in 1990 with his best
friend Faried and Tito.
The name Jasad was chosen after Yuli saw a shirt with the
word "Jasad" written on it, the word mean "body", but these
word usually mentioned and had relation with the dead, so Jasad mean "dead
body", thinking it might appropriately match with the band's image,
Faried, Tito, and Yuli agreed to use it for the band's name.
2 years later ( 1992 ), Faried left band, Hendrik and Abut
join in to continue, these line up only survie for another 2 years again, all
the members left the band except the former Yuli. A year of 1994 finally Yuli

the band experienced several lineup changes with only Yuli and Dani being the
member left.
Finally, early of 2000 vocalist Man and guitarist Ferly
joined the band. The other two personnels were drummer Dani Papap and original
bassist Yuli. This would be their first solid line-up until 2011 when Dani
