TASYIM, sebuah band yang aku tak pernah kenalpun. Entah siapalah ahli bandnya dan macam mana lagu mereka langsung aku tak tahu.
Mereka aku muatkan dalam web ni adalah kerana asas perjuangannya adalah dilandasan death metal. Jadi Tasyim adalah antara band death metal yang merancakkan lagi dunia bawah tanah Malaysia.
What is the greatest thing
about TASYIM? Tell us about your band. Thought every band had it own
"greatest" thing and we can't deny that TASYIM also had it and that what we
offer. Our effort is to play music. TASYIM tremendously shows the heritage
Malay races and the pride to be birth as chocolate skin, black hair, black
eyes and so on. The music we direct was Death Metal. Accurate definition
would be the art of Human Soul. We create a true direction from our races to
be musical composition. All the dark, aggressiveness, melancholy, etc
combine intone scope. It is true that lots of bands have emerged as Malay
band but can you see or hear the difference? Popularity consisting of 'own
true music' has polluted the scene but still one will survive and only the
listener will define it nicely~{!-~} The educational learning through
the scene over the years can't be judged by words. It's a matter of
experiences. Even if you have been into the scene and actively contacts your
experience would not be the same as ours. The course in our scene just a
matter of good friendship. If this lost there'll be no scene at all. Same as
collaboration between one country and another. We strong and survive if we
unite, if 1 do we fought like 1 battalion? Te process of being scholar in
Underground society is just by being your own self. No pretender or
imitator. That what we really to survive~{!-~} Most of our song being direct by
the lyrics. The moods from the utter vision of mine (poet) will bring
landscape of TASYIM's music. If the riff come first, we'll re-organize to
make it sure it suit the lyric. We're really concern up in this as we can
hear most of bands don't really care whether their music was been direct or
not. Lots of bands that we hear since the beginning had very contra
especially from the music to the lyrics. That's why in the future effort we
will print out the lyrics as well so that everyone would experiments our
music thoroughly. All that we spoke and sung are
from our heart. We're Malay and that's why most of the lyrics had Malay
words as not all of our words can be translated in English and kind of being
different meaning. The theme will change significantly if we translate all
of it unto English. We bring out Malay Culture through our music. Inties are
mysticism, ghost literature, mythos, magick, rejuvenation, etc. Right now
we're in the making of 2 versions of songs that will be in Malay and
English. We have been influence by a few bands to make the same thing. This
somehow objectively to make a song that is both in 2 languages. The title
also will be change due to different language. We're not hoping much from this
release as our sound was too crap. It's suppose to be release as Advance
Tape to let everyone hear our new effort but since Permatha Pathah urging us
to record something for him to release, so we gave this advance to be as a
split. VISITANT side was an ideal band to make the release more perfect and
to spread their name in the scene. Whatever it has faced, it has been
released and we are quite thankful to PPR to release it wonderfully~{!-~} If we said we're 100% committed
to music that is too much and we think it's lies. We're not musician, we had
our own career to survive but we are 100% at the back of our music as it was
'us' you hear. Every one of us scram guitar when we're free and we search
lots of moods to interpret the melody. Depending in what situation the
lyrics need. Quality music defines the intellectual of the music itself. The
compositions off music that speak the atmosphere that the lyrics need.
Perfect combination should make the song killer. Try not to clone others and
it shows how much bad you're as composer.. "The Blessing Moon Of Teluk
Tongkang" was been composed lyrically by Shaman an musically by Farouk and
Khairul. We proud to be raised by Kuantan our area and by that pride we
begin to make some contribution to show our appreciation. The beauty of this
song was the Telok Tongkang. The place that everyone will chose to camp and
swim but not all of them know the hidden passage of that place when the moon
arisen. Shaman had a few experience there and also a very interesting story
from the elders about this place and that's why the ideal moods was in the
music itself. Here attached the lyric and feel the sensation by yourself~{!-~} Rhythmix Studio was been
suggested by our friend that work there (Razi now drummer of AGHAST). We're
not too fond in complete studio recording (tracks, etc) and we had very
limited experience in controlling the sound system. Thanks to our friends
for being there when needed. Lalok and Acai of KNIGHTWAR, Azrin of SILENCE
ENSHROUD, Wanie ex-NUCLEAR WAR, Lie of BAZZAH, Cfoo and Atan of DIRTY DOGS
and the rest of the gang. Satisfaction should loose if it's our first and we
shall get higher in the next time. We don't really know how much tracks that
we used as it all in computer (recording digitally). Perhaps, below than 16
should suit the sound that we recorded. The dress~{!-~}we are not a clown so
we don't wear anything that you want us wear. We just play music and any
expectation about us should only for the music. Someone expect us to lay
with Baju Melayu, terompah or selipar, etc that's bullshit. We dress like
that when it suit the occasion not in front of hundreds of people. We play
our music as perfect that we can. We saw lots of band had dress code but
their playing was bullshit. We hate this kind of band so please do not ask
us to be one of them. We want to play perfect music skills not imaginary on
stage. The music is just a music but
numerous of them think that they are the music. When their bands have been
popular, they began to change attitude and think they are better than the
others. No more interview bullshit like that as they already have a label to
promote them. Commercial hunger for this type of guys and they all should
take this opportunity and become one gang~{!-~} the greatest Suffercation. Music
defines what we have in our soul not in our body. With paint they colored
their face and with spike they shows everyone that they are 'evil' than
others. What these all for? To show something that not all can done? Or it's
just something special that you're so glamour only in your area/country~{!-~}
we'll piss on your grave. We'll keep the scene higher and
began to split with oversea bands in the future. Composed relaxing soul's
food to all of you. Speak no lies and revealing the true definition of
music. Thanks for this interview and we hope when it has been ready, our
eyes can read it. Thanks to all and please support us by buying our debut
demo "Descendant Ritual". It's only for RM6/USD 3. Thy shalt meet again~{!-~}
Orang Melayu wilt Conquest~{!-~}
TASYIM muncul dari dunia kematian Occult Death Metal yg semakin menggelegak di bumi Malaysia. Mereka pernah menghasilkan split tape dgn sebuah lagi band iaitu Visitant tahun lepas melalui Permatha Patha Rec. Sambutan dari pengikut dunia gelap ini amat menggalakkan tetapi akibat sistem bunyi yg agak lemah agak menggelamkan kehebatan santau mereka.
Kini mereka muncul lagi dgn demo Descendant Ritual yg berjaya meletakkan Tasyim sebagai salah satu pembawa roh maut death metal di Malaysia. Ia telah melenyapkan segala kegagalan Tasyim yg lepas dgn sesuatu yg amat menggegarkan oleh sistem bunyi yg dirakam secara digital tahun 2001 yg lalu.
Bagi mereka yg menghambakan telinga dgn sentuhan maut Tasyim dengarkan keganasan mereka. Tanpa ragu Tasyim layak diberi pujian demi mengangkat maruah alam maut Occult Death Metal di Malaysia. Demo Descendant Ritual memuatkan sentuhan maut Descendant Ritual, Devour Your Soul, The Tormented Kingdom of Bunian, The Blessing Moon of Telok Tongkang dan The Provocation of thee Orang Melayu (bonus).
Ini aku dapat interviu dari steelmadnes (thanx bro.) :
You guys have been in the scene for years. What have you learned?
Tell us about "Descendant Ritual". Did most of the song start with
musical ideas or with lyrics?
From what I've heard, your lyrics are more towards ritual/poem from
another side of Malay culture. How do you define that? Why?
Give some comment about your split with VISITANT. You seems quite
disappointed with it. What do you really hope for this split?
Most of us involve in the music scene as a hobby. But for some person to
make wonderful quality music it is not just a hobby but a commitment to the
music itself. What about you guys?
Another question about "Descendant Ritual" demo, I'm quite interested in
this song, "The Blessing Moon Of Teluk Tongkang". What's really about and
why did you choose this as one of your track in the demo? Who responsible in
writing the lyrics and making the music?
Fairy was not to be told, As the hidden celestially, Telok Tongkang veil the
sacred tale, And the tale inherit through the decades, Visions emerge
vividly, The potraits of pain and grief revealed upon the hills, Grimness
filled the air with mass, Masquerade genuinely aired with the blessing moon,
She, they or them dances heavily, Till the moon fall apart, Nor they or we
know who they are, As the tale shines in Telok Tongkang, Angered, lust and
pain wilt be their domains, Angered savagely to humans molesting their
throne, Lust passionately for their kingdom and races, Pain savagely for
those who suffer the consequences, The myth and tale combined with Pantai
Bulan Mengambang, As spoken the power of Mambang, Nor sihir or magic can
defy, Extreme illness massacred the ignorance, Nor kemenyan or serapah can
heal, May the mambang and his reign dwells among the tale, That have been
inherit from decades, Myth, tale and magic remains scattered by The Blessing
Moon Of Telok Tongkang
Which studio did you use to record this demo? Do you satisfied with it?
How many tracks did you use?
What can people expect to see when you guys play live, which they may not
be expecting?
How do you look through our music scene? What did you guys really see
between the people and the music itself?
What do you have in for the future?
1999 - TASYIM / VISITANT (Split Tape)
Review:
2 bands from Pahang in one professionally done tape, with color cover and printed tape. The 'outlook' of this product is in the highest quality and professionalism although the cover design can be better. But the sound of music from both bands is too raw like rehearsal recording. Luckily the music is save this release. It is hard normally for me listening to this kind of sound quality and they are the lucky ones. TASYIM once released one tape few years ago in this kind of sound and from that tape they deserve to get the title "Malaysian best unsigned band". They still not change much and still deserve that title. Melodic death metal and their own style added in it. VISITANT plays brutal death kind of music and interestingly they put some breaks in the song with melodic solos, also a bit thrashy and heavy metal sometimes. Both are one of Malaysian most promising metal act. A proper recording is needed to prove their ability in the scene.
