NUCLEAR STRIKES (Malaysia) interview

1- Hi friends of Nuclear Strikes! It's a pleasure for us to make this
interview with you, a Heavy Metal band from a distant country -for us-,
Malaysia... Please, tell the ppl that doesn't know Nuclear Strikes when was
it formed, and who are the members.

It all began in 2002, at that time we only play with the concept of music Heavy Metal and

Speed Metal , in 2003 we play Heavy Metal/Thrash, alongside the band  called ANTACID. In 2005, Rex and 1.2 Kill began expedite Jack hammer (now called Nuclear Strikes) and

during the 80's Heavy Metal music has long been forgotten in our country, there are only

modern style of heavy metal music only, at the time we started playing songs like Judas priest cover and

Riot and some of our own songs. In the same year, we started out Nuclear Strikes with line-up by Rex, 1.2kill, Iron Speed, Thunderbolt and male vocalist (Anort). Nuclear strikes began performing in 2007 with Anort (only one gig performance).  Then the singer been replaced by the EKEY MIZUME

female singer, with opportunity to expand our her here, but not long after that,

Ekey Mizume leaving the Nuclear Strikes. In 2008 we found Steelgirl Ladyana. After plenty of stage shows, concert etc, Nuclear Strikes name became a reference in our country till now.

2- You are from a country -like Argentina, too- that is far from the big
centres of Heavy Metal in the world. Please, tell us about the Malaysia's
Heavy Metal scene.

Malaysia’s rock begins as early as 50's by Julia (Tandak Rock). Phenomenon began in the early 70's starting with the band called Sweet Charity. In the mid 80's Heavy Metal Rock also began to dominate the entertainment in our country. Occur at the end of 80's, the music was banned for 2 years, no longer present as a more open mindset. In the 90's Malaysia produced abundant underground band concept Thrash, Death, Black as Cromok, Sil Khannaz, Brain Dead, along with the flow of metal music world.. in the era of 2000 apart from Nuclear Strikes no longer that generation of notable bands such as Antacid, Vault.. this era of rock music ,we got  more space to breath .

principal traditions are in a totally different way?

As told in the previous question Malaysia more open,  must follow the guidelines and the criteria set.
