Music Overdose

In this post, nobody gets credited as Datuk, Tun, Tan Sri or whatever extra surname. I strictly believe in all man are created equal.nobody gets an extra piece of shit and nobody got less either.ISA will do the right stuff, they ain't gonna bust people with thoughts to share.
just push your fingers into your eyes if you don't like it.




All I've got is insane~


More on music appreciation.
During this period of working/slaving to earn enough dough for an electric guitar, coupled with some shortages, music is my sanctuary that keeps me from being absorbed into the mundane world.Lots of stuffs coming in - Mustaine throats, Morello effects, J-rockers, Bach and the baroque gang, metal cellos, the newage Bach- Jason Becker, Kevin Kern, Nobuo Uematsu, etc..



Thank you for saving me from the monsters.

This time I wanna talk about political expressions in music.
If you did rip through the news these few days, you'll know that Mahathir has quited UMNO, Karpal Singh firing others and gets an assassination threat, ppl are going against the PM, disputes over some stupid rocks off Singapore solved and more interesting stuffs like Lim Guan Eng taking economy class flight and eating char koay teow at New World Park which is very humble of him. I'm firmly sat on the gate between the Government and Opposition, both seriously got their own positive and negative buffs. Although i think its humble of the Penang CM to do what he did, it does not sum up my stance in politics.Its just a matter of human quality.


Okay. The first phrase or clause[forgotten my grammar] that comes into my mind when I' m thinking, reading or people talking about these politicians - Bulls On Parade

That's a title of a song from Rage Against The Machine focusing on the States 'indulgences' in war.I can't really make out the full meaning of the song, just got it a few days ago but from the lyrics i think its more to criticising politics and the war-based industries - typically arms and weapons.Just like Stark Industries in the Iron Man storyline. They were talking about how people are fed with fear of death, tricked into believing in terrorists are coming to kill them, how the industries persuade the government into using military action and why did the government resort to war when peace would work. So finally, the arms industries will get the better of mankind as while they profit, people got killed and all the aggression.So from my point of view RATM is putting a point on why do we have to succumb to these government agendas and also an anti-war message.

By the way, the song's got a really innovative guitar solo, check it out. courtesy of Tom Morello.

Moving on, though i don't think the song meaning's got anything to do with our politics scenes as we're not into war yet and Heckler & Koch's share ain't Malaysia's main income, I just had this feeling of connecting the words, Bulls On Parade to politicians.maybe because the words rhyme with Politicians On Masquerade, which i just came across and express as these ppl are sometimes pretentious, you'll never know what's behind their teeth and smiles. You can't trust every piece of shit they say as most of them are 'all talk, no cock'. As you can see from the past elections, why do they need campaigning during the period?come market shake hands with people and all that.but when the election period is over, where are they? bet you'll never see them till the next round. And as you can also see, they are just no goodies...when they lose their seats, they create some big fuss and says that Malaysia is no longer united as people are supporting different parties.[i'm using 'they' to describe politicians and parties so that my neutral stance remains]But ain't that suppose to happen?we are a democratic country, ain't we?

And i got a few dreams on these shits too, dunno why.A peculiar one is I'm in a Warcraft tower defense map and i see there were two towers attacking each other, one with Abdullah's head and another with Mahathir's.way damn funny, laugh out loud.This is an obvious influence of too much cc outings and the current headlines. and I was a hero in the dream, forgotten who...but could have been either a Tauren Chieftain or Blademaster.there were other towers along the borders and I'm hacking all of them down all the way. a sign of anti-politics?pro-peace?but i'm using agression.....Jared the Dream Guardian, decipher it.

Ladies and gentlemen,I present to you Bulls On Parade






Maybe after 50 years, finally democracy is working in Malaysia.maybe.
