JY: How you describe about BEDAARAH to your music? Will you describe it more technical death metal or?

Bedaarah: Hmm, if to technical death metal, I don’t think so. We loved to describe as a death metal.

JY: And can you describe about ‘sound instrument’ and the band that was influenced your music style?

BedaArah: There are in some guitar licks in BedaaraH taking element from ‘Sampeq Dayak’ (harvest dance). Actually it much, but for now we still affected by CANNIBAL CORPSE, DEATH, NILE, GORGASM, CRYTOPSY, KATAKLYSM, SLAYER etc.

JY: who is the first have idea to form BEDAARAH and decided to play death metal?

BedaArah: Bagus (drummer), because he’s a first who ask to play death metal, then Can (guitarist) realize it and it turns out we fell in love with this music ahahahah luv u full Death Metal!!

JY: After listening 2 song from your website, The resulting sound is very brutal. Did you have a particularity/your own music style than plagiarizing from other bands?

BedaArah: Thanks you had listening hehehe. Actually we’re open mind, so we’re listening any song/band… then realized to be a music that we think Death metal. So we didn’t know who have similar songs hahaha

BedaArah: there is 6 songs. In the near future we want to create a new album EP contains 4 songs.

JY: And who was responsible for writing the lyrics and arrange your music? What are the things that can provide inspiration in writing song lyrics?

BedaArah: For lyrics and arrangement usually we make together. But Can usually makes the pattern/ framework lyrics and arrangement.Damage to earth, injustice law in this country and relationship of human-Satan-God.

JY : As we all know, a lot of death metal bands from abroad who do tour / show to Indonesia as Suffocation, Misery Index, Dying Fetus, Nile and much more.
