    Damage Inc. - Part One


    This is about a band called "Damage Inc." back in the early 90's. A 3-piece band who's into tunes from Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Radiohead and the almighty Sepultura. I started off as a church guitarist ( dont laugh ) and during that time it was only me and my bassist in the so call incomplete band. We were looking for a drummer and believe it or not, it comes naturally.......very natural. Fate has brought us together.

    Damage Inc. was born from the bosom of chinese malay rock band. With the different taste of music and the disintegration of the band, we both set out to create our next band. Here's how the reinforcement came. I was trying out this Ibanez guitar ( donz my bassist wanted to buy it ) and as i was raping it ( with some Metallica riff ).Stood right in front of me, a long hair chinese guy enjoyed watching me ( i know im sexy ). As we walked out from the store, he approached and invited me to join his band. I acccepted it immediately without any doubts and that nite itself i went to their studio and jammed. These guys are into the same music i am but they are more of a chinese band ( yah chinese songs ). We had a couple of gigs and i really do enjoy it though im just the rythmn guitarist. They finished 2nd in the Canton Rock Band Competition and unfortunately i was only 16 (under age ) that time and i wasnt there to play with them. They made it to the local scene especially their frontman who guitared most of the Astro Chinese shows ( Astro Talent Quest blah blah blah ). Almost forgot, their band name is "Barbastelles" some sort of bat's name.

    Though i miss it, but here comes the reward. We were looking for a drummer all these while, one nite... this guy ( the frontman of the chinese band ) came to my house with his cousin. Ive seen this guy passing by my house all the time with his drumstick on his hands. I was thinking to myself , could he be a drummer? otherwise he wouldnt be holding the drumsticks unless he's wanking with it. We went for drinks and that session kills all my curiousity, HE IS A FUCKING DRUMMER ! The next day, when i was about to go downtown, i saw him at the bus stand. I asked him where he's heading to and he told me he's on his way for a jamming session with his band. BINGO ! I went there with him and man, their band sux big time. They cant even play the basic chords correctly and in one flurry of creativity i proposed him to join us for a jamming session. I called up Donz ( the bassist ) and we hit it off, a history in making.
