This first line-up consisted of Ecky Lamoh(vocals) , Eet Sjahranie (lead guitar), Fajar Satritama (drums) and Iwan Xaverius(bass)
The Beast (1992) was their debut album with tracks such as 'Ikuti' and 'Evolusi'. 'Evolusi' a short instrumental track is regarded a cult track particularly among local guitar players since is distinguished composisition at the time. The succes of the Beast earned them a opening slot for Sepultura (prominent Trash band from Brazil) concert in 1992 in Jakarta.
After Edane first album Ecky left, but the band kept Edane as their name. Heri Batara (vocals) or better known as Ucok, joined the second line-up. This line up released 'Jabrik' (1994), 'Borneo' (1996), and one greatest hits album '9299' (1999). But afterward Ucok concentrated more on the management side of the band. Ucok's position was taken over by Trison Manurung (vocals), the vocalist of then the inactive band Roxx, a prominent rock band. Trison was selected through rigorous two stage selection. The third line-up produced the album '170 Volts' (2002) with the smash hit 'Kau pikir kaulah segalanya'. This album saw the progression of Eet's guitar sound that became heavier compared to the more 80's rock in the previous albums.
The third line up didn't last long in mid-2003 on 9 July 2003, Trison resigned from Edane to reform Roxx. Edane got Robby Matulandi (vocals) who was chosen from a Guns n Roses Tribute band. The fourth line up released 'Time to Rock' in 2005. The hit single 'Cry Out' was included in the Spiderman 2 Asian Edition Soundtrack including an accompanying videoclip with the webslinger in it. Edane once again changes line up, this time Robby and Iwan Xaverius left the band leaving only Eet and Fajar as the remaining original members.
Edane released 'Edan' in 2010 with the english written 'Living Dead' as the lead single. The fifth line-up consist of Eet Sjahranie (Lead guitars , Backing vocals), Ervin Nanzabakri(Lead Vocal) , Daeng Oktav (bass) , Hendra Zamzami(rhythm guitar) and Fajar Satritama (Drums)
Edane's music is mainly written in two languages Indonesia and English, either combined or solely english or Indonesia. Their music is sometimes regarded as heavy metal, rock and progressive metal.

The Beast
Edane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Shaking to the Thunder beat
Flying like an eagle
Sweet blood sucker smile
Who cares what people say
Yeah ... I am the beast
Walking in the black rain
Covered by the sad night
To be a bad loser
Facing bloody life with my burning heart
Don't ask me to stop singing my own song
No body knows
You'd better shut your dirty mouth uuuuhhhh...
High I feel so high
Moving away
Crashing into the wide sea of fire
High I feel so high
Flying away
Crossing the dark streets of desire
Let the sky above turn into crimson red
Don't you know it
See the world is upside down
I'll be here standing on my own two feet
I've been fighting this jungle life to long
Yeah ... I am the beast.
The lyrics to Edane's song 'The Beast' exude self-confidence, power, and a rebellious attitude. The opening verse talks about screaming like a demon, shaking to the thunder beat, and flying like an eagle. These lines set the tone of the song, and it is clear that the singer is not afraid to show his wild and untamed side. Further, in the song, the singer speaks about the disapproval he faces from society; however, he is unapologetic and claims that he is the beast. He walks in the black rain, covered by the sad night, and is not afraid of what others think of him. Instead, he emphasizes his own identity and is proud of who he is.
Additionally, the lyrics mention that the singer was not born to be a bad loser, and he faces the bloody life with his burning heart. This line represents the strength and resilience that the singer possesses amidst the challenging situations he faces. He also talks about moving away and crashing into the wide sea of fire, emphasizing an almost superhuman ability to overcome any obstacle. Moreover, the lyrics talk about seeing the world upside down and fighting the jungle life, and again, he claims that he is the beast. All in all, the song is a powerful anthem that celebrates individuality and strength.
