TRIUMPH OV FIRE – UNDERSICKNESS IV ( Madness In Batam) 2012

When we accept offer from Jody –organizer for this event we really excited to perform there.  We fell really great get this oppurtunity  and feel this really important to us because  we are the only Malaysian band perform for this event

This is our first time perform outside from Malaysia . Detail preparation,  a lot of reherseals, dicusssion among line up  to make sure everthing gonna be smooth.  Althoghh we are not get attention from local zine, we are never give up to go Batam  because we get very good response from our blood and crew and they also make promotion for us. We also did self promotion by facebook , blog and many more internet channel just to make sure we want to go as far as we can.

We start our journey to Batam from Nilai  then go Pelabuhan Setulang Johor using ferry as our transport.  Really good experience for us. We arrived in Batam and the organizer pick up us and give us really good coperation and make sure everthing ok. We stay at hotel near concert venue. 

 

At the night, the organizer bring us dan we get to know better Batam metal comrades ,. They are really good guy and really appreciate us .  Next day our vocal  Rock Angel get good news , he get new sons  and this his 4^th  child, Congratulation man. Don’t waste time we go to venue to  make sound check and  our guitarist Erik get really bad fever but after doing the soundcheck we go to venuee back to hotel and get some rest before performance.

When we arrived to venue see a lot crrowd and  metal maniac headbanging moshing and enjoys many band performance. Really different from our country. After Maghrib we get instruction from organizer to prepare for our turn. Erik 666 fever getting worse and he want to quit but after dicussion among line up Erik 666 change his earlier decision.  Everthing  going like we planned before..

One by one song from us get really good response from crowd. All 8 songs include one intro performed by us supported by really good sound system. We really satisfied. Experience perform in Batam really good for us to know outside metal scene from Malaysia. Along with many talented band from Batam, Padang and Singapore share the stage and get oppurtunity to get know each other better than before, We also want to thanks En Hafifi our sound engineer because doing his responsibilty really well.
