2. Black Teeth is an Indonesian punk supergroup that was formed in Jakarta by Neurotic guitarist Satriyo. The idea to form the band was founded by Satriyo who uploaded his song to SoundCloud in late 2013. At first it was a one-man project, but then drummer Eno Gitara and guitarist Christopher Bollemeyer from Netral joined the band. Later on, Jerry Killmore completes the line up as a bassist.
The first release by Black Teeth is a song called "Shit". "Shit" was released as a downloadable content on SoundCloud and a compilation by Racerkids Clothing called Racerkids Compilation #Volume 1.
As a new group, Black Teeth already became the most badass live band in 2014. Surftotal.com said "-Starting on Saturday with a first performance by Punk Rockers – The Black Teeth who gave an amazing first Ever live Performance." Trax magazine said with headlines "Aksi Perdana Black Teeth di Jakcloth, Liar!"
Early September 2014 Black Teeth already released their first album, distributed by Demajors Label.

elo bilang gue tai, gue emang nya peduli
mereka pikir gue tai, emang gue suka tai

mereka pikir gue tai, emang gue suka tai
elo juga suka tai, malah bilang gue tai

The lyrics to Black Teeth's "Shit" convey a sense of disregard and defiance in the face of criticism and judgment. The repetition of the phrase "elo pikir gue tai" (you think I'm shit) emphasizes the weight of others' negative opinions, but also communicates a rejection of those opinions. The line "elo bilang gue tai, gue emangnya peduli" (you say I'm shit, but I don't care) suggests a refusal to be swayed by external judgments, and a sense of self-assurance.
The lines "mereka pikir gue tai, emang gue suka tai" (they think I'm shit, but I don't mind) and "elo juga kaya tai, malah bilang gue tai" (you're also like shit, yet you call me shit) suggest a level of hypocrisy among those who criticize. The use of vulgar language and insults ("dasar lu emang lu emang benga'") adds to the confrontational tone of the song.
Overall, "Shit" appears to be a declaration that the band will not be held down by others' opinions, and will continue to do their own thing regardless of criticism.
