Rocket Rockers, the pop-punk icons from Bandung who formed in 1999, have long proven themselves as one of the most consistent bands in Indonesia.

The journey of Rocket Rockers spans more than two decades.

It began with their early release Soundtrack For Your Life in 2002.

Two years later, they continued the momentum with Ras Bebas in 2004.

Then came Better Season in 2008, marking another chapter in their growth.

Most recently, they released The Good Flight in 2023.

Through all these eras, one thing has remained constant: the band has never lost its musical identity.

For more than two decades, they have kept pop-punk alive in a constantly shifting music landscape, making their name synonymous with the genre in Indonesia.

The band has not only remained active but also carried the Indonesian pop-punk flag to international stages.

They have performed across Southeast Asia and Europe, sharing the spotlight with legendary acts such as MXPX, The Ataris, and SUM41.

Their dedication has firmly established them as one of the most influential forces in Indonesia’s pop-punk scene.

Rocket Rockers Embark In New Journey

Now, Rocket Rockers introduce a new chapter by collaborating with soloist Rizky Irmansyah to reimagine Langit Sore’s hit single Rumit.

The track itself carries a theme of heartbreak.

Yet in this version, the song feels reborn.

Rizky steps in with his soft and tender vocals, adding a layer of intimacy to the story.

Then, Rocket Rockers bring in their explosive energy, charging the music with raw intensity.

Together, they build a fresh arrangement, one that blends emotional depth with the unstoppable spirit of pop-punk.

Rizky explained that the song already carried a strong meaning but felt deeper and more colorful when infused with Rocket Rockers’ energy.

Aska added that the band did more than rearrange the track.

They immersed themselves in its meaning and expressed it through their own sound, turning the challenge into an enjoyable experience.

Rumit is ready to become a new anthem for anyone who has faced the twists and turns of complicated love.

Its official music video, starring Onadio Leonardo and Egi Haw, blends both serious and satirical elements to portray the chaos of a troubled relationship.

With more than 20 years of consistency and a strong commitment to preserving pop-punk’s spirit in Indonesia, Rocket Rockers once again prove they are more than just a band.

They are an essential part of the nation’s pop-punk legacy.
