#BreakingNews : BELATI TAJAM Unleashes New Single “TANGAN GELAP” — A Blistering Grindcore Strike Against Corruption
September 15, 2025 — Jember, Indonesia. Grindcore outfit Belati Tajam has officially dropped their explosive new single, “Tangan Gelap” (“Dark Hands”) — a furious sonic assault exposing the rot of corruption and the decay of power.
Featuring Coreng Serversick, a veteran hardcore vocalist from Jember, the track channels raw rage and uncompromising energy to amplify its scathing social message. Recorded at Yeyen Talangsari Studio and released under Belati Tajam Record, the single is digitally distributed worldwide by Halo Entertainment Indonesia.
“Tangan Gelap” rips through the illusion of progress, revealing how promises of development often mask greed and exploitation. Its biting lyrics depict parliament halls as thrones for “well-groomed rats,” where corruption is worshipped like religion. With ferocious guitar riffs, relentless drumming, and an incendiary vocal delivery, the band proves that grindcore is more than chaos — it’s a weapon of truth.
The official lyric video for “Tangan Gelap” is now streaming on Belati Tajam’s official YouTube channel, featuring a dark and symbolic visual narrative:
- An anthropomorphic rat in a formal suit sits on a grand throne, counting stacks of money — a powerful allegory for the corruption of the elite.
- A frail human figure kneels before it in despair, representing the suffering and helplessness of the common people.
- From the right, a large, black hand reaches into the frame — a menacing embodiment of unseen forces that manipulate and control.
- The blood-red backdrop, filled with ruins and infernal textures, evokes a world collapsing under moral decay.
- Behind it all, laughing faces flicker across the background screen — mocking the agony of the oppressed as mere entertainment for those in power.
The artwork and song together embody the essence of “Tangan Gelap”: a searing critique of greed, systemic betrayal, and the conspiracy of power that sacrifices humanity for wealth. The apocalyptic tone drives home the anger and social tension that fuel Belati Tajam’s message.
“Corruption isn’t just theft — it’s a betrayal of hope,” the band declares. “Through ‘Tangan Gelap’, we remind everyone that justice must not be ornamental, and the people’s voice is not a background prop.”
Available now on all major digital streaming platforms, “Tangan Gelap” by BELATI TAJAM stands as a furious call to conscience — ready to shake ears and awaken hearts across the extreme music scene.
