A 60’s Rhythm ‘n Blues nuanced band that has successfully made it into the short-list of local bands with soulful character. Their music is like a wake-up call for the youth of today to leave their computer screens or look up rather than down to communicate through smartphones; and to dance, make love, play, and be alive under the sun. Indische Party selected as the winner of Converse Rubber Tracks 2015 and recorded two songs at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London, England.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

sinar matamu membunuh mentari
peri bidadari mereka iri
ku memburu bagaikan serigala
merasuk benakmu tanpa suara
kaulah jelmaan imaji tingkat tinggi, untukku
pikiran melayang ke alam liar
menari denganmu dalam cahaya

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Serigala" by Indische Party tell a story of a wolf, metaphorically representing the main vocalist who is chasing after someone. The first line, "sinar matamu membunuh mentari" translates to "the shine of your eyes kills the sun" which could mean that the subject's beauty is so powerful that it outshines the sun. The next line, "peri bidadari mereka iri" means "fairy angels envy them" suggesting that the subject is so beautiful that even celestial beings are envious of them. The main vocalist then declares that he is hunting like a wolf, which symbolizes his desire and determination to get to the subject.

The following line, "merasuk benakmu tanpa suara" means "penetrating your mind without sound" which could mean that the main vocalist's presence is already felt and acknowledged by the subject, even without words being exchanged. The next line, "kaulah jelmaan imaji tingkat tinggi, untukku" means "you are the embodiment of high-level imaginary, for me" which could mean that the subject is the epitome of perfection to the main vocalist's eyes. The last two lines of the verse, "pikiran melayang ke alam liar, menari denganmu dalam cahaya" means "my mind drifts to the wild, dancing with you in the light" which could mean that the main vocalist is entranced by the subject's beauty and finds himself consumed by the moment.
