Skinhead’s Alive and Rocking …. In 2017


Malay bands are my latest interest. They are innovative and into all sorts of new music, eg 'Brit Pop' so that in itself is progressive. 


But I wasn’t prepared for Skinheads. That’s like a generation past ….. like in the 1990’s era.



But Skinheads are still around …in Ipoh…and they were kicking up the scene just fine last Saturday 7 October 2017 … at Insider Satellite Ipoh.

The band playing when I arrived was 'UnXpected'. The singer sang in English, and sounded pretty good and got a good audience response too. It was spontaneity and he  rocked. 


'UnXpected'

Looked like the fans that night could have got a haircut just before attending coz their styles were cut pretty close. 

And their dressing, was dated no doubt, but definitely a blast from the past.

Earlier the bands performing were oFFside, KARATZ, GangStar and a few more. The UnXpected singer invited them onstage for a jam and I managed to get a photoshot of them.


Definitely the members were in their thirties or more but this was in their time and UnXpected were doing it for their fans and possibly to reminiscence their youth.

'Insider Satellite Ipoh' is located on the first floor along Jln Che Tak, behind Petron gas station.
Rock On people.
