Kieran
James (Busuk Chronicles): Hi, can you tell me the early history from the formation
of the band up to now? / KJ1: Hai,
bisakah kamu menceritakan sejarah awal terbentuknya band kalian hingga
sekarang?
ANSWER by Harispa: CRITICAL DISASTER band was formed in early 2011 in January in Bangsal village; sub-district Pesantren; Kediri eastern Java town; Indonesia.
We gave the name which means in accordance with nature and living beings in
today's condition - critical condition disaster always leads to death. At the
end of 2010 we comprised Harispa and Batok/Rizki Kurnia. We were
still looking for partners to join the band and make concept BRUTAL DEATH
METAL, and in early 2011 we found the first colleagues who formed the following
formation: HARISPA (GUITAR); BATOK/RIZKI KURNIA (VOCAL); THE KIP/Sigit (BASS);
ARHPAND (DRUM) and in this formation we released our first single titled
"Abortion Fetus Vicious''.
Then at the end of this stage of the journey there was a problem. Two
members Thekip and Arhpand, continued to confuse us again and we had to look
for new personnel, but despite this situation we were left with Harispa and Batok/Rizki
Kurnia. We did not give in but continued on in the GLOBAL METAL UNDERGROUND. We
soon found a new partner by recruiting Robby Demontia, but there were still only three
of us with a vacancy in the bass position. Shortly thereafter Bogie Demontia
wanted to join us to fill in as bassist, and he responded to the material that
we gave and ended up joining the line-up. He left because he was focusing on
Demontia band, and we were forced to find another bassist; slowly we looked for
a match and finally we found a new bassist Martin Tenggorokan.
Martin responded to the materials we gave, and the formation was then: HARISPA
(GUITAR); BATOK/RIZKI KURNIA (VOCAL); ROBBY (DRUM); MARTIN (BASS) and in this
formation we released our first Demo called Demo
2011 which contains 3 songs: 1 Intro; 2 Carnage in mortuary; and 3 Segumpal
darah busuk. One of the songs from our demo is included in the compilation
of Kediri Metal Aggression.
At the beginning of 2012 we changed the concept and there was a change
in formation. We used two guitars, and we were looking for a new bassist as our
bassist Martin was now a guitarist and so in our vacant bass position we soon
found a new bassist, namely Pliituu, and the formation then became: BATOK/RISKI
KURNIA - (VOCAL); HARISPA - (GUITAR); MARTIN - (GUITAR); ROBBY - (DRUM);
PLIITUU - (BASS). In this formation we released the single 2013 titled
"Tsunami". The single has become our new material. And we were
inactive for a long time because there were a couple of issues, and finally at the
beginning of 2014 we changed formation again, and Harispa who previously played
as Guitarist now decided to switch to the position of Drums, and now the three
of us were: BATOK/RIZKI KURNIA - (Vocals); HARISPA - (DRUMS); EDO - (GUITARS)
Edo Increasing Malignancy joined as guitarist, and finally we released the
single song titled ''Lusting Devouring Your Corpse''.
At the beginning of 2015 we changed formation again, with the merger
of Casper (Hatestroke); Ozzy Azzahrel (Necrobutcher); Ramadan Diky (Dezpized); and this became our formation then: Harispa (Drums); Casper (Vocals); Ozzy
Azzahrel (Guitars); Ramadhan Diky (Bass). With this formation we immediately
released our first album. Before the release of the album suddenly Josh
(Necrobutcher) on Guitar & Ramadhan Diky (Dezpized) on Bass were both busy
with work so they decided to leave, and in the end we recruited Faizin
(Decaying Human) to fill the vacancy in the guitar position and Ahmad Fandy
(Gorification) to fill the vacancy in the bass position. Ultimately the formation
then was: Harispa (Drums); Casper (Vocals); Faizin (Guitars;) Ahmad Fandy
(Bass).
After a long wait for the release of the first album (around one year
from 2015 to August 2016, due to delays by the label) the label released the 1st
full length album titled "Brutality
of Human Cannibalism" in August 2016 with Eastbreath Records. And
thereafter Casper, Faizin, and Fandy resigned because all were busy with their
other bands. At the end of 2016 Harispa, a founder of the band, made new
material for 2nd Full Length Album and directly we began to record in November
2016. In the 2nd Full Length album Harispa is recording alone in all the
instruments, and in December 2016 Critical Disaster signed with Pathologically
Explicit Recordings (Spain) to release the 2nd full length album. In the month
of December 2016 Critical Disaster prepared a new formation to fill positions:
Ilham on the guitar; Arga from Murderous to fill in on vocals; and Tanjung of
Self Mutilated to fill the position on bass; with this new formation we also
prepare materials for 3rd Full Length Album. And the members are currently: HARISPA (Drums); ARGA (Vocals); ILHAM (Guitars); TANJUNG (Bass).
