It took Indonesian pop punk trio The Rang-Rangs seven years to create their debut album 9 Jahitan. That’s quite a long time to create 32 minutes of music. Fortunately The Rang-Rangs makes most seconds count on 9 Jahitan. Their poppy punkrock is characterized by sugary harmonies and bubblegummy hooks and it’s not really a stretch to call The Rang-Rangs Jakarta’s answer to The Yum Yums.
9 Jahitan is not available on Bandcamp (yet?), but it’s out on Tape (see link below) and not that hard to find on the streaming services. Highlights for me are Lekas Pulang Johnny, Sekarang Juga en Aku Cium Pacarmu.
