SPEAK UP

I forgot what year exactly this band was formed, but as far as i remember, i was on the 2nd grade of high school. So, i suppose it was in 1996 or 1997. The first formation was 5 people and the band called SUSPECT DEVICE. At first, i was the drummer. But when the guitarist ( Koko ) left the band, we had to decide who's gonna fill the guitar position or else, we're fucked.



At that time, i couldn't even play guitar properly, but i took the challenge. The drummer post left vacant. So we asked my frontman's (Adis) brother, Arif to help us. He (Arif) was a street punk drummer from a legendary band called WARHEAD.



Then, again, our rhythm guitarist (Pentoel) and bassist (Ade) decided to leave the band, and left us all in confusion.

My little brother introduced me to one of his school mate name FARHAN. He said he can play bass quite well, so we asked him for a jam and took a vote, the vote was.He's good and we want him to be our bass player. FARHAN became our bass player ever since.



Due to the re-formation of the band, from that day on we called our band SPEAK UP.



In the mid 99, we had a very serious intern problems related to our frontman, it was a week before we recorded our first album!!! So with all due respect our frontman determined to leave the band.

We were sooooo fucked up during that time, there were only 3 of us without a frontman.



We were thinking a lot and came out to a conclusion, we would not add another personnel, instead, we voted to let me took the post.



I took the responsibility and do the best i can. A few days, a few months after, we recorded and released our first album called BELIEVE US TRUST US on august 99 under UNITE Records.



and keep on releasing another.
