MySpace a place for friends

SELF-CONTROL formed in the midyear of 2004, consisting of four highly determined and motivated young musicians. The band has since congealed with the hunger to pursue their dreams of touring the world while gaining international recognition through their written music. Coming a long way from playing small shows around Indonesia, SELF-CONTROL put together a solid EP all on their own volition. Making the most of a region of the world that is almost barren with regards to music production, SELF-CONTROL pressed forward with their "can do" mentality to record their music with limited resources such as, sock filters and low-end microphones. However, they still managed to deliver a solid recording performance to all their fans despite all of their obvious set backs.

Over the last few years, the band has performed numerous times on Live National Television (Indonesia, over 200 million in population). SELF-CONTROL has been interviewed by exclusive magazines such as, Hai Magazine (Indonesia) and LPM Voice Magazine (U.S.A). June, 2007 SELF-CONTROL was announced by Hai Magazine to be one of the top unsigned bands from Indonesia on Myspace.

Having performed with various Indonesian Major Label acts such as Radja, Tipe X and many more, SELF-CONTROL, while manifesting a hard and heavy blast of refreshingly progressive alternative punk rock, has the fan connection and energy to attract thousands. Their songs “Memories” and “Step by Step” have aired many times on FM radio (Mustang FM) and Internet radio (TLP radio). “SELF-CONTROL’s song “Memories” evokes energy and passion with a hook that keeps you moving and wanting more. SELF-CONTROL is proudly featured on the TLP Network of shows”, reviewed by David Bernstein, Producer of the TLP Network.

SELF-CONTROL has caught interest of many Record Labels in America and has recently entered an International Compilation Album which will be released under C2M2 Records (Seattle, WA) / Local Promo Music (LPM). Among thousands of international bands viewed on Myspace, SELF-CONTROL was chosen to be on the International Compilation album.

As SELF-CONTROL continues to fight for International recognition, they are winning over thousands upon thousands of worldwide listeners on Myspace alone each week while continuing to sell their new EP and Merch at shows. This band’s fight is never over. SELF-CONTROL will maintain a hard working spirit to achieve anything that comes before them for now and forever.
