1 Malaysia= 1 Music?

A Ruthless Cleansing has been gigging around KL area for quite some time, let's not forgetting competitions as well. And just say that we got recognition by a lot of person because we are going out to the market place. Place which is open to the public and reaching out to mass audience. Of course it's not fun at all cause many times people can't accept our music as well as genre. Well I'm not saying that everything is bad, we have good feedbacks too, such as people that look up upon us and also support us! (Thanks guys!) 

Coheed & Cambria is coming to KL for 1 day show on 1st Aug. Junk is the host and they are looking for an opening act for them. And so Junk requested readers to nominate the local bands that they would love to see on stage before C&C. Our fans and friends have been supporting us big time, and of course they are other people nominating other bands too, such as RAZED, A4J, LoveMeButch, and many more.

The problem is this, I don't get it why people have to sabotaging other bands to promote their own? Well you can always promoting your favorite band, but is it necessary to hate spamming? I know that it's your freedom, but it's just too childish. ARC swear to God that none of us spamming the comment box just to put ourselves on stage with C&C, not like some other bands that we know (remain secret). But we got ourself haters. This is really stupid, and know it has become Band Wars.

I support 1 Malaysia just as the same with 1 Music. Local music scenes has not been doing well ever since... Merdeka? Our local music is known to others as "cheap, no quality, bad" music, and I felt such a disgrace about it. The fact is, some of our music are really bad as in BAD, but not for all, we have good stuff too!

Talking about music, let's go deeper to my favorite genre. METAL. Local acts has been bad, what more about METAL. Our local metal band acts is not bad, we got BT, Caladrius, M.Conspiracy, Naratu, and the list go on.................. How are we going to stand out to others when there are internal conflicts of bands?

United we must stand! A Ruthless Cleansing never been sabotaging others, or defaming others. We have been accepting and making friends with everyone that we meet on the journey. But somehow we just got ourself haters. Defaming us, posting negative comment on us, making a wrong judgement.

We are here by all means just to clarify ourself, ARC never use dirty methods to get shows! 1 of our member is working for Junk, but we never have any special treatment. We separate between work and band, and we definitely have no authority at Junk. By the way, for C&C, it's up to them to choose who they felt that in line to share the stage with them, not Junk and not by spamming on the wall, and certainly not by voting!

To fans: Give every band a chance to show their talent, regardless they are established or not, listen to their materials and then only you make your own judgement.

ARC give big thanks to those who supported us all these while, and without you, there wont be us! ARC-haters, we won't back down because of all those wrong judgement and comments about us. We will work even harder to be who we are whether you like it or not.
