Mari Join Ana - A Definition by BudakNakal

MARI JOIN ANA

"We present an intimate look at the inner-self of a cult from both the members and the cult leaders points of view. It is an emotional human portrait that explores the reasons why our state of mind is the number one breeding ground for cults in the world, and a chilling reminder that it can happen to anyone. Mari Join Ana."

Few things you might wanna know about "Mari Join Ana":

1. It is a group blog. At the moment the cult leaders is Kid Kapital, and myself. We will later invite a few more people to join our cult.
2. This blog writes about more serious stuff, mainly politics, philosophy, world affairs, current issues, policies, psychology, sports, but still relates to our daily lives. We don't talk craps, we don't talk about things that meant nothing to us or our cult members or people around us.
3. Actually we do talk crap things all the time, so we will write anything we want or we feel like, but at the end of the day, it has something that all of us can learn from, or think about. Or not. Whatever.
4. We would like to open an invitation to those who believe they belong in this cult, to be one of the writers. They can have existing blogs, just like me.
5. Every writers have different style of writing. Some are more serious, some are stupid, some are crazy. It doesn't matter, as long as we have the same wavelength of thinking. To simplify it, WE NEED CRAZY PEOPLE.
6. The name of the blog itself means everything.

Sejahtera Malaysia #1: Unity Bullets

The only way for us to have a peaceful, prosperous and progressing country is by putting our country's fat, neo-fascist "Hitlers" to sleep with the Unity Bullets.

AKTA ANGKASA - The Codified Act of the Sky

These guys are awesome. 2 years ago I heard one of their song via a random surf on youtube (as shown below)

I thought well.. this is good for the scene. Just good enough to keep the scene alive.

A few days ago, my friend Fikri from 'the-wknd' (a weekly online video magazine of local independent music) messaged us all and mentioned that their last wknd session of this season will be sealed by AKTA ANGKASA. I went to the site... saw the video below and was totally blown away i swear! check it out.

KL is too boring with no REAL entertainment.

1. Clubbing scene is so fucked up these syok sendiri DJs keep on spinning shitty tunes. Who listens to Lil Jon & The Ying-Yang Twins or Benny Benasi anymore?

2. Most clubs also look up to themselves too high. Rude bouncers, expensive drinks (well blame the Government for the 400% tax), slow service, ugly-looking waitresses, bad ventilation system. Stop it man, enough that the Government are pressing all of us in our daily lives. Why do you think we go out to your joints? So that we feel like home when receive a better treatment.

3. Muslims are NOT ALLOWED to go to rave party or any party sponsored by alcohol company. Oh why, are we Muslims so stupid we need the bloody ministers and politicians and 'genius' among them to think and decide for us about what we can or what we can't do? If you think we are stupid and lack of judgment, FIX THE BLOODY EDUCATION SYSTEM.

4. What the fuck are we supposed to do? Watch Persembahan Tarian Unik 1Malaysia at Istana Budaya every goddamn week?

5. Roadblocks and raids are so common nowadays, there's even an anti police roadblocks facility on Twitter called KLroadblock. I might start a Twitter account on police raids at clubs or spas, I bet that'd help A LOT of patrons.

6. Even if that's not enough, when we decided not to go out and instead throw a private party at home or service apartments, THEY RAID THAT PLACE TOO.

7. You see, when Government banned alcohol from any events, what do these people do to achieve the same level of effect from alcohol? They take drugs. Yes, for as low as RM30, you can get high all night long. And Government is too blind they can't even see this thing coming. Worst part is, they're NOT GETTING ANY cut from this. Might as well let the organisers sell booze, at least you get 400% tax from the sales.

8. Fuck I love my country, I love the people, and I'm as patriotic as any other Members of the Parliament. This is not how I wish to be treated.

Heavy Metal in Baghdad

Office worker by day, kopitiam wifi parasite by night. One would call me a workaholic, but the only thing that drives me to work so hard is the joy of accomplishing every task. I celebrate every time I get an inch closer to my goals in life. Boredom kills me faster than any explosive and I refuse to endure even a second of nothingness.

So one day I did some research on rockumentary films as part of my project (plus the work's fun so that's as close as i get to leisure). While discussing with a professional videographer whom I personally know, I was introduced to so many unique documentary films that embraced the beauty of rock. I came across this one film which made a lot of sense to me. 'Heavy Metal In Baghdad'.

The documentary revolves around the only metal band in Iraq, Acrassicauda. The makers of the film smuggled themselves into Baghdad in the midst of the War to meet these aspiring members of Acrassicauda with the main objective of getting the band together to perform like how they did before the War erupted. With strict curfews and watching bombs explode from the balcony of their hotel at night, the film-makers stuck their neck on the line of fire to make this film a success.

They followed the members of the band for 3 years before they entered Iraq only to find out that the members themselves have not met each other for months although they lived just 15 minutes away from one another. The film revolved around detailed interviews with the band on how rock and metal was frowned upon by the Iraqi military.

The acts of headbanging was associated with practices of Judaism and goatees are satanic. The band had to keep their hair short with their faces covered with hair to look fashionably Islamic disguising themselves as a common Iraqi. The content of their closet insanely full of metal merchandise can easily get them killed if caught.

An 'Iron Maiden' CD and a Slipknot t-shirt in their homes is no different than a time bomb waiting to explode. Being the metalheads that they are, they keep it well hidden to not forget their purpose of surviving.They sail on an adventure trying to flee out of the country into Syria as refugees. Every step of the trail is an act of survival.

After watching the documentary, I googled the band and found a video which I can proudly describe as the ultimate prize giving ceremony after passing the finish line.

If I were that dude, I'd be totally mindfucked. peace!
