Dali, a psychedelic rock band from Sidoarjo, East Java, officially formed in 2025.
The band took its name from the famous Spanish artist Salvador Dalí, particularly inspired by his painting The Persistence of Memory.
Although the artwork originally explored the nature of time, the band reinterpreted its meaning to reflect their own vision.

The lineup features Robbi Garret Bagaskara on guitar, Rizki Fadhlullah on drums, and Wahyu Aprianto handling bass and vocals.
From the start, the trio aimed to set themselves apart from other local bands by embracing a genre not often explored in their hometown: psychedelic rock.
Their debut maxi single, titled Into The Solar Storm / Beyond The Glance, offers a bold sonic and emotional journey.

The release dives into themes of escape, destruction, and unseen forces that lurk beneath the surface of awareness.
Rather than presenting two separate tracks, the band structured the maxi single as a cohesive thematic narrative.
The first track, Into The Solar Storm, symbolizes a plunge into chaos and emptiness.

It paints a picture of a burning city, fading dreams, and an unforgiving solar storm that continues to consume everything in its path.
In contrast, the second track, Beyond The Glance, serves as a quiet and chilling prologue.
It introduces a shapeless figure—a racer born from the void—who travels faster than light, completely invisible to the eye.
The track challenges listeners to enter another dimension and walk through shadows, offering a deeply immersive listening experience.
With this debut, Dali invites fans into their vivid, otherworldly soundscape and sets a bold tone for what’s to come.
