Efek Rumah Kaca
A Suite of Expanding Excitement

Cholil Mahmud felt a certain nagging in the back of his mind throughout the entire recording process. They were in the throes of cutting Sinestesia, the band Efek Rumah Kaca's third album.

Cholil realized he was missing the old days, when Efek Rumah Kaca was still an anonymous group, whose music was hardly ever heard by anybody. In those days and for many years, the band only rehearsed in studios, never performing on stage in front of a live audience. In Cholil's view, those were their salad days when Efek Rumah Kaca was still pure and innocent.
