Everything is falling apart And I’m sick of asking why For all the tears you made me cry The endless pain of goodbye Take me in your arm Screaming, throw myself How do I fix some broken parts? From all the pain you pulled inside I want to leave, I went too far

She shook her head Her mouth too dry to speak A moment later Threaded to low clouds Did you have a rough day? Cause I’ve called you every way since the funeral since the funeral The rain was over but drops were still falling from the trees The clouds were dispersing The wind has blown the roses away Or at least leave them plain, leave them plain

about

[EN]

Death comes in many forms. Sometimes, it comes roaring like thunder. On other occasions, it could come crawling like the ever growing income gap between us and the 1%. No one knows what it looks like until it comes knocking, or clobbering.

No matter the form, death always bequeathes a foreign, sour taste for those left behind. That unpleasantness is what Modern Approach tries to narrate through their latest songs: Sapphire / Pale and Rigid.

Both of these songs talk about the loss that struck one of their friends. Losing someone important forced them to bury many futures with great sadness and disappointment. Through Sapphire / Pale and Rigid, this darkwave trio from Malang, Indonesia tries to help their friend channel their grief.

Not only for their friend, Modern Approach also presents Sapphire / Pale and Rigid for everyone who’ve been grappling with death and loss. They believe, providing language for grief is important to heal the various traumas that entails death.

[ID]

Kematian datang dalam berbagai wujud. Kadang, ia menggeruduk seperti geledek. Di kejadian-kejadian lainnya, ia bisa mengendap-endap seperti kenaikan iuran BPJS. Tak pernah ada yang tahu seperti apa parasnya sampai ia datang mengetuk, atau menggedor.

Apapun bentuknya, kematian selalu mewariskan rasa masam yang asing untuk orang-orang yang ditinggalkan. Perasaan itulah yang coba dilukiskan Modern Approach lewat dua lagu terbarunya: Sapphire / Pale and Rigid.

Kedua lagu ini bicara tentang rasa kehilangan yang melanda sahabat mereka. Kehilangan sosok pasangan membuat kawan mereka harus mengubur banyak mimpi dengan kesedihan dan kekecewaan. Sapphire / Pale and Rigid adalah upaya grup darkwave asal Malang ini untuk merapal duka yang dirasakan oleh kawan mereka itu.

Modern Approach mempersembahkan Sapphire / Pale and Rigid untuk kawan mereka dan semua orang di luar sana yang bergulat dengan kematian dan rasa kehilangan. Mereka percaya, memberikan bahasa buat duka adalah salah satu cara yang mujarab untuk membantu menyembuhkan beragam trauma yang membuntuti kematian.
