Indonesian hardcore label Set The Fire Records have sent in a massive update of their latest release – Indonesian straight edge hardcore band Take One Step‘s newest EP entitled Time And Preference (streaming below):
“We put out Take One Step’s EP last October which is their fourth release but debut on Set The Fire Records! Before we put out this EP they put out a discography on cassette tape which was released by Eternal Records.
We released Time and Preference EP on cassette tape containing 6 songs with a strong youth crew vibe. If you’re a fan of Youth Of Today and The First Step you’re gonna love em. Our relationship is based on the fact that weve known each other for quite a long time way back before this label even existed. These dudes have been around for ten years and are considered one of the most influential straight edge bands in Indonesia and the hardest working band ever. Most of the members are also active in other bands like Common Goals, Tepi Lurus, Decomposing Normality, Stand Clear. Theyre a hugely positive force in the local hardcore scene.
So its an honor that we had a chance to work with them. Please give them a listen because I honestly think this EP is one of the best releases we put out in 2015. The release show for this EP will be held this weekend in their hometown Bogor. A lot of our good friends will be playing too, so stoked about this. I think its going to be awesome!
We also made a limited cassette tape of the EP with different covers for this show.
Lastly, mad respect to Riz and Unite Asia for always supporting Asian hardcore!”
