Carcass - Banned In Malaysia Due To Lyrical Content


No Carcass shows allowed in Malaysia, it seems. The seminal death metal band was scheduled to play there in May but their visas were declined due to their "lyrical content". It's not the first time a metal band is banned in Malaysia. In 2013, Lamb Of God were forced to cancel a show in Kuala Lumpur because their performances were found to infringe on religious sensitivities and cultural values of Malaysian society. Now Carcass are taking the heat even after they played in Malaysia last year.

Carcass had this to say about the matter in good humour: "Sorry Malaysia, no show for you guys in May. Seems like your government officials still haven't updated their calendars to the 21st century - we've had our visas declined on the basis of our 'lyrical content'. Laughable and embarrassing. Give us a call when you get yourselves a sensible secular state. PS if you're reading this you're too late, we already 'corrupted' your youth and played Kuching last year!"

For the sake of solidarity with my Carcass brothers, I will not be going to Malaysia either.

Pretty nice statement from Carcass camp.

Also, Malaysia doesn't have anything to do productively and it seems banning metal bands across the globe is bringing some revenue for them.

I just say let's fucking defenestrate Malaysia out of the every tour metal band scheduling. Time to shake Malaysian goverment vagina for pain. FOR PAIN.

Is there any way Carcass could play in a nearby country such as Singapore so that maybe there is at least hope for Malaysian fans? Like a way to work around the issue? Must suck for them.

Malaysia is the biggest tin and rubber exporter in the world.

In fact, tin production seems to be what's actually destroying their country (although improving their economy).

The band is getting lots of flak from the Malaysian fans for posting the Malaysia flag upside down. Having a conflicting opinion and being disrespectful are two different things it seems.

It's just a picture of a flag. It's not like they are burning it.
