Fikriawan when they were still students in Universitas Indonesia.

The group has been catching regional media attention since their first single 'Camkan', and now heralded as one of the biggest next-generation band in Indonesia after the release of their genre-defying debut album 'MULTIVERSES' in September 2017. This reputation snowballed after the band published its nationally-acclaimed 'Beberapa Orang Memaafkan', which saw singles such as 'Peradaban' and 'Berita Kehilangan' (ft. Rayssa Dynta) claiming air time in FM radios across the archipelago and as far as Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur.

.Feast is notorious for their reputation of amassing a crowd dangerous enough for stage security and utilizing collaborators and guest performers on-stage and in their recorded materials. Both of their albums include big names and new contenders alike in the Indonesian music scene, such as Mardial, Ramengvrl, Bam Mastro (of Elephant Kind), Karaeng Adjie (of Polka Wars), Oscar Lolang, Bin Idris, Sir Dandy and Rayssa Dynta. After the release of their latest single, Dalam Hitungan, .Feast is now preparing on their highly-anticipated third album, which is set to be released on 2019.

Minggir!
.Feast Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hidup di dalam layar
Berharap menjadi besar
Melalui jumlah pemirsa yang engkau tawar

Hidup di balik kaca
Berharap menjadi akbar
Menabuh konflik menebar dusta di udara

Menembakkan garam ke angkasa
Hujan memperkeruh suasana
Mengkomodifikasi cuaca
Memperkosa etika

Minggir minggir (pendapatmu tak relevan)
Minggir minggir (perkataanmu tak sepadan)

Dengan tingkah laku nyatanya
Membela diri seadanya
Ulah tak sebesar namanya
Pengecut minggir

Hidup dalam ilusi
Jaga ereksi abadi
Atas fantasi mulukmu tuk diri sendiri

Hidup dalam ilusi
In the sky above you float so free
The youth will burst you off your bubble in the count of three

Minggir minggir (pendapatmu tak relevan)
Minggir minggir (perkataanmu tak sepadan)

Dengan tingkah laku nyatanya
Membela diri seadanya
Ulah tak sebesar namanya
Pengecut minggir

Manuver melupa batas
Bagaikan Jalur Gaza Israel Palestina
Meledak lagi drone berterbangan
Massa kau bakar lagi seseorang gantung diri
Di Cijantung tetap kau tunggangi

Minggir minggir (pendapatmu tak relevan)
Minggir minggir (perkataanmu tak sepadan)

Dengan tingkah laku nyatanya
Membela diri seadanya
Ulah tak sebesar namanya

Pengecut minggir
Minggir minggir (pendapatmu tak relevan)
Minggir minggir (perkataanmu tak sepadan)

Dengan tingkah laku nyatanya
Membela diri seadanya

Ulah tak sebesar namanya
Pengecut minggir

Overall Meaning

The song "Minggir!" by .Feast is a commentary on the toxic culture of social media and the way it has influenced our lives. The lyrics speak about the desire to be famous and the obsession with the number of followers, views, and likes that make people feel important. The first verse talks about living life behind a screen and hoping to become a big shot by getting more people to watch you. The second verse depicts the individual's need to create a fake persona and protect it at all costs to keep the illusion alive. The chorus, "Minggir minggir (pendapatmu tak relevan) Minggir minggir (perkataanmu tak sepadan)," translates to "Move aside! (Your opinion is irrelevant) Move aside! (Your words don't match the situation)" and is a sarcastic take on the idea of social media influencers who believe that their views and opinions are the only ones that matter.

The bridge of the song focuses on the impact of social media on people's lives. The lyrics compare the drone of social media to the conflict between Israel and Palestine, and the explosion of negativity present there. The song highlights the power of social media to turn a peaceful event into a violent one in real life. The repeated chorus at the end is a commentary on how people use social media as a safe haven to hide behind their screens to avoid confrontations, even if they hold extreme opinions that could hurt people.
