Genre: Post-Rock\u002FExperimental Rock\u002FProgressive \nMembers: Tomas Tam, Ling Lee, Rohnie Tan, Erik Tan, Kelvin Hew, Izzy Musa \nRecord label: None\u002FIndie \n \nBiography: Having to appoint their new drummer (after the departure of Omar Ibrahim of Flicked Mind), comes back from a long hiatus the six piece KL-based band, THE METAPHOR; who have been around since mid of March 2009 and having marked the month of May for their first ever show. Melodious and progressive, there is no doubt that they have the experience they need to deliver. THE METAPHOR—consisting of Tomas Tam, Ling Lee, Rohnie Tan, Erik Tan, Kelvin Hew and Izzy Musa are working diligently to produce a 2-track single hoping to engage listeners without having to convey stories with words. “Rebirth” and “When We Were Once Lost” will be released—translating the band’s feelings from the first note until the final to an assortment of inventive tale. Playing together for more than a year, the band has forged an unbreakable bond among each other and also a steady growth of fan base. Apart from that, the band was also invited for radio interview and magazine features. Traxx FM commented that “it (Rebirth) contains the element of provoking one’s emotion”. Junk magazine took note of how “Labels are for anal music journos and the unimaginative. The Metaphor checks all the post-rock boxes—no vocalist, sweeping soundscapes, intrinsic harmoniousness and a minimalist approach to their own star persona who can be that good without resting on the strength of references alone”. On the production side, the 6 creative minds have congregated in the house of The Awakening Productions KL to fill their breathtaking and brain-rattling ideas. To crave their musical arts, they trusted their instincts, pushing their song craft to the limit and meticulously perfecting them. The song takes the audience to a spiral of musical journey where they experience different heights of emotions drowning them in their own imagination according to Erik Tan. “It brings me a mix sensation of despair and hope. I feel like I am in a movie with a constant growth of peace and a sudden punch of angst. When I start playing the songs, they allow me let loose.” “I’d close my eyes and play them over and over again in my head,” Tomas says enthusiastically. “It (Rebirth) is one of the best musical pieces that we’ve ever done, in that each part shows each of our true self and what we like to play as musicians.” Tomas explains “who need words when music is not bound to the limitation of language?” Everything sounds the way it does recorded or live because of the way they agreed that’s how it should sound. “I’d play melodies or just rhythms; not much of a solo instrumentalist,” said Ling Lee who is a big fan of melodic ambient. “She is definitely a huge reason why we have this distinctive sound and we wouldn’t sound complete without her,” said Kelvin, the bassist of The Metaphor. “We are technically different in terms of musical background and music listening preferences. That’s what makes The Metaphor what it is,” adds Rohnie Tan who adds finishing touches into completing those masterpieces. “I’ve always wanted to play in a post-rock band. I could feel the music the first time I’ve heard them. They moved me and made it easier for me to be in the band,” Izzy, the final ingredient to the recipe expressed. \n \nWebsite: \nhttps:\u002F\u002Fwww.myspace.com\u002Fthemetaphorkl \nhttps:\u002F\u002Fwww.facebook.com\u002Fthemetaphor
