Slank

Malam minggu datang lagi
Kekasihku gak disini
Kucoba membunuh sepi
Malam tambah dingin
Dan sunyi aku cuman sendiri

Malam minggu nongkrong lagi
Cari temen biar gak sendiri
Tapi semua udah punya janji
Dan satu-satu merekapun mulai pergi

Ma malam minggu datang lagi
Malam yang bosan lagi
Malam minggu
Ma malam minggu datang lagi
Malam minggu yang sepi
Malam ini sendiri

Malam minggu datang lagi
Sehingga ku begini
Penuh unek-unek di dalam hati
Kupendam sendiri

Malam minggu yang kali ini
Masa bodo aku gak peduli
Bersama gitar temani bernyanyi
Triak-triak sampe pagi menghibur diri

Slank was formed in 1983 through a school band at a local high school in Slank Jakarta, Indonesia, which named CSC (Cikini Stone Complex). Their main founder, Bimo Setiawan (Bimbim) and their fellow bandmates often played a number of Rolling Stones songs at school. The band later changed its name and personnel to SLANK, with Bimbim on drums, Erwan on vocals, Bongky on guitars, Denny on bass and Kiki on guitars. The name SLANK itself was taken from their musical attitude, which was, and is still reckless, ignorant and play with undetailed groove (Slengean in Indonesian).

In the following years, numbers of personnel changes were made, with Pay on guitars, Kaka on vocals and Indra on keyboard, replacing the previous bandmates.

Although they started their journey in the music industry quite roughly, with numerous of rejected demos, SLANK emerged in 1991 with their “The Best Newcomer” award in BASF event. Successes did not always come for SLANK, when three of their personnel, Bongky, Indra and Pay chose to quit the band, and formed their own band (BIP). Following the resignation, Abdee, Ivan and Ridho joined the band, and since then, SLANK has never changed its personnel again.
