The name 'Superman is Dead' started its evolution from Stone Temple Pilot's "Superman Silvergun". It was changed to "Superman is Dead" because the band agreed that nobody is perfect.
SID was formed in 1995, drawn by their common interests of Green Day and NOFX. Their influences soon extended to the punk 'n roll genre, a la Supersuckers, Living End, and Social Distortion.
June – July 2009, Superman Is Dead held an American tour, playing 16 concerts in 16 cities. 11 of these shows were on the ‘Vans Warped Tour’ and the last 5 gigs were titled ‘From Bali With Rock’.

Jerinx has opposed the land reclamation in Benoa Bay, Bali since 2014[1] because of its social impact.[2] On 10 July 2018, Jerinx demanded President of Indonesia Joko Widodo to fulfil his promise back in 2015 to follow up on the Benoa Bay reclamation issue.[3]
On 11 November 2018, Jerinx criticised dangdut singer Via Vallen in an Instagram post for covering the 2013 SID song "Sunset di Tanah Anarki" without permission. Vallen was said to have removed the meaning of the song. "VV [Via Vallen] should have learned to be a human, not just able to take. All this time singing SDTA [Sunset di Tanah Anarki] thousands of times, do our song's lyrics have no meaning for her? After being successful, what can you do to appreciate the work that brought you to a better place? With millions of followers, at least contribute to the movement against forgetting, or the straightening of '65 history, the struggle of Kendeng, etc., there are so many things that VV can do without having to spend money," Jerinx said.[4] Vallen apologised in her Instagram, saying that she did not mean to ruin the song by singing it in a dangdut koplo arrangement.[5] Jerinx later accepted the apology, but still stands by the previous comments.[4]
