Uki
worked before he left the band on 8 August 2019.

After releasing their

cover album Sings Legends in 2016, Noah started working on Keterkaitan Keterikatan, which was planned to be released in 2017 but was postponed until 2019 due to difficulty with writing the lyrics. To finish the album quickly, Noah got help from Java Jive
guitarist Capung to produce the album, and the band collaborated with several musicians and writers to finish the lyrics.

Keterkaitan Keterikatan consists of eight songs and a bonus track, a single by

Ariel of Noah with Ariel of Nidji, which is only available on the physical release. The album was released on compact disc format on 14 August 2019 and on digital music services on 24 August 2019. The album tracks "My Situation" and "Jalani Mimpi" were released as singles in 2017, two years before the album was finished. The next singles; "Wanitaku", "Kupeluk Hatimu", "Kau Udara Bagiku", and "Mendekati Lugu"; were released near the album's 2019 release date. The album was well-received commercially and critically, winning the Best of the Best Album award in the 23rd annual Anugerah Musik Indonesia
ceremony.

Background

In May 2016, Noah released Sings Legends, an album consisting of covers of Indonesian songs the band members consider legendary. After promoting it, they planned to make an album of original songs,[5] which they last did in 2012 with their first album Seperti Seharusnya. Noah planned to release the album in 2017.[6]

Writing and recording

A pinisi boat sailing on the sea
Pinisi boat, the type that Noah used when working on the album.

In November 2016, Noah started collecting song material for their new album.[6] In February 2017, they, along with additional members, worked on the album in isolation on a seaborne pinisi boat for one week. Noah said they wanted to get a different feel from the regular feel they get in a studio. Based on a similar experience when working on Bintang di Surga (2004) when they were named Peterpan, the band believed working in isolation could help them focus.[7] Noah originally planned to finish the lyrics for the album's first single, "Wanitaku" during this one-week period[8] but they had difficulties working on the sea because of the poor weather and waves. After that, the band again worked in a villa in Puncak, Bogor Regency, where Noah wrote the songs "Jalani Mimpi" and "Kupeluk Hatimu".[9] Afterwards, they worked on the album in Jakarta.[10][11]

Noah worked on the album for two years. During a press conference on 14 September 2017, vocalist

Ariel said they were still trying to find the right sound for the album.[10] In July 2018, Ariel said the music for the album was almost completed but the lyrics were not. Ariel said he was struggling with writer's block and had difficulty finding new words for the lyrics. To get the album done as quickly as possible, Noah asked for help from Java Jive guitarist Capung, who produced Peterpan's albums.[12] The band also collaborated with several musician and authors to finish the lyrics.[13]

At the end of 2018, Ariel said the addition of a new song to the album had delayed its release.[14][15] Noah, however, removed the song "Suara dalam Kepala" from the album because they were not satisfied with it and reserved it for their next album.[16]

Uki resigned from the band after his work on Keterkaitan Keterikatan was finished.

Keterkaitan Keterikatan is the last album on which guitarist,

Uki, worked before resigning from Noah on 8 August 2019.[17] Uki wanted to leave the band for six months before the album's release but he kept working on it until it was finished.[18]

Themes

Most of the songs on Keterkaitan Keterikatan are themed around love. According to Ariel, each song covers different perspectives of love.

David, is about a difficult situation and the way God never leaves during such situation;[23] and the closing song "Jalani Mimpi" has a message for listeners to keep following their dreams.[24]

Artwork

The cover of Keterkaitan Keterikatan was designed by Thovfa and the photography was done by MadTone Photography.[25] The album cover depicts the band members posing between red strings that are connected to the band logo. Ariel said the idea to insert a physical version of the logo came from their 2015 music video for "Suara Pikiranku", which features a large, physical version of the logo. The strings was strung by Dennis Sutanto, who previously worked on the music video for "Suara Pikiranku".[26] For designing the album's artwork, Thofva was nominated for Best Album Graphic Design at the 23rd annual Anugerah Musik Indonesia.[27]

Release and promotion

Noah originally planned to release "Wanitaku", the lead single of Keterkaitan Keterikatan, during a concert on 11 February 2017 in

Gili Trawangan after working in isolation on a pinisi boat on the nearby sea.[8] Because the band had not yet completed the lyrics for "Wanitaku", they only played the song's chorus. They told the audience about their progress on the boat.[28]

On 16 September 2017, Noah released the album tracks "Jalani Mimpi" and "My Situation" as singles.[29] On the same day, the band held a concert titled Road to New Album in Pangkalan Udara Sulaiman, Bandung Regency.
