this is a zine, an archive, a blog, an event calendar, a place where rock’n’roll, especially of the fringe + underground, independent, DIY and related, came to be highlighted, promoted and documented.
running as a scene-blog since 2004, this website was operating as The Ricecooker Shop‘s portal from early 2007. TRS was a physical, brick’n’mortar music store first based at the Annexe, Central Market for more than three years, before moving on to two different locations in the city.
three years after the shop closed down in 2014, it morphed into a library/museum or an archive. we call this The Ricecooker Archives – Southeast Asian Rock’n’Roll Treasury (quite grand, we know).
The Ricecooker Archives have our own space at 84B, The Zhongshan Building, Jalan Rotan, Kampung Attap, Kuala Lumpur. here we collect, collate, clean-up, digitize, database and archive rock’n’roll artifacts from around the region. our aim is to preserve and to share it with the world.
note: the setting up our physical archives is still on-going, so those who wanna come meet and visit, do get in touch with us first. terima kasih.
gig bes! from broken noise..
bes band!
bila nak wat kat kl?
dosa..band utara maen kat selatan..
nant singgah la kl..hehe..
men kat kl terus.. 🙂
yeah2.tak sabo gak nk tgk hellexist & alchemy sickness.first time ni nk tgk die org perform.
Tools of the Trade are gaining quite the reputation in international circles. Not to sound subconsciously favoritistic but some of the grindcore bands from the SEA who I would say could probably tour the U.S. are Negation,Selfmadegod,Torture Incident, Tools of the Trade and Failure Trace of the Human Racefrom Thailand-I have a huge mad-on for them-my brother likes Tools of the Trade-they’re in his top on myspace…
Good Doctor… You brought tears to my eyes, my man. Not many “kids” who were active in the mid-90s Malaysian “scene” are now bothered enough to check out new local bands, but here you are enthusing about TOTT and SMG!
Thank you, boss!
btambah semangat aku nak g tengok showcase ni.. 🙂
To paraphrase Metallica ‘I can’t take it any other way…!’ I realized a couple of years ago this wasn’t something I was gonna grow out of…I was in danger of a few years ago but punk/hc/metal/grind-it’s really not an aquired taste-there’s no middle ground..you either love it or you hate it-but I understand what you’re saying-a lot of people from my little era are all ‘grown-up’ and married and I would imagine they probably even look at those days with a little embarrassment like ‘…yeah ,I used to like that stuff (embarrassed smile/expression)…’but it seems the older you get the more you love it…its like the oxygen you breathe.
tak panggil Magnicide main skali ker? alah dari singapurr tu… baru ganaz show… dah lama tak turun Tmn U ni… agak2 dalam 15 tahun kot?… rasa nak turun la, tumpang KIAh naik keta purrSona dia….

Yeah no problem…Kuantan Under the Sial..camne boleh lupe? We were very proud of our East Coast scene..around ’97..we had Aghast AND the Dirty Dogs in Kuantan..and those guys were straight Pahang, without any ‘ganu-isms’ like most Kuantanites-partly because a lot of those guys were from Maran and Kuala Lipis respectively…as for Enslaved Chaos…tgk camne…but check out my new band Fascist Insect:www.myspace.com/fascistinsect..Kia..what band you in?
Hohoh.Kuantan Under the Sea..
It was a story.

Yes yes.. I went for few gigs in Kuantan.. still remember all those days.. Still in my mind was Tojeng’s studio, the jamming studio with tons of flyers around the wall.. hehehe.. by the way, i drums for the tools.. so how’s your Fascist Insect? Share something please..
Sure: we were gonna do a split with SELFMADEGOD but due to some unforseeable circumstances it may be on hold to the end of the year-we’re also planning to do a split with a band called GENERICHRIST out of Florida who really kick ass-they play death metal in a ALL SHALL PERISH /DESPISED ICON kind of mode I guess: http://www.myspace.com/generichrist …the details of which haven’t been ironed out yet but yeah just visit our page there’s a lot of info here’s the url: http://www.myspace.com/fascistinsect.
yeah.. i miss lips boom boom too…
pasti ada raid!
tojeng studio mean DEP studio ke?

Ahmad Safuan >> Nanti aku cari balik gambo2 lama kalo ada.. hehehehe..
Thee Dr >> I drums for The Tools..
Kia jangan nak tipu la… kau drums untuk NazzaQ pastu ngaku drums untuk Tools.. konon! Tak pernah tengok pun muka kau tiap kali Tools maen gig??? Kau kan jaga kedai haiwan bila masa maen drums plak ni?

Jimmy >> Kakakaka.. nasib baik masa tu aku slim lagi.. sempat lari.. skrg perut dah macam Kidd.. susah sket la nak lari.. boleh lari tapi tercungap2 la.. abg Kidd jangan marah.. hehehehe..
Straineyes_prod >> Nak promote label la tu.. hahaha.. bawak banyak barang turun JB satu apa pun tak keluarkan untuk dijual.. Pastu bising2.. dah la baju koyak nampak ketiak..
Ahmad Safuan >> Gambar2 masa gig tu ntah ku letak dimana, dulu tak guna digital kamera lagi, guna kamera filem je.. so nanti aku bagi negatif kat ko, ko tolong cucikan bleh?
Kidd >> Ni apesal panggil aku handsome2 ni? Bodek ka? Hahahaha..
Tiong >> Bundle murah oi.. nanti kasi turun lagi.. layan Red Bull mcm layan beer.. sorang 4 tin sambil tgk bola.. lontong kat pasar oi.. layannnn.. Jimmy, kena rasa lontong tu..
To whom it may concern (i) >> Lepas ni gig kat Annexe camna? Boleh dibikin lagi ke tak.. rumours mengatakan mungkin tak bleh buat lagi selepas kejadian gig hujung minggu lepas.. mungkin ada yg sudi memberikan penjelasan dari pihak Ricecooker atau yg sewaktu dengannya..
To whom it may concern (ii) >> Magnicide yang sepatutnya touring bersama dengan Magrudergrind pertengahan tahun ni katanya kensel disebabkan oleh sedikit salah faham.. just for everybody info.. info ni dapat dari line up Magnicide sendiri.. waduh2.. melepas nak melihat persembahan mereka yg mantep banget!!!
mazmi baju jgn buang tau.simpan.n jgn jahit baju tu.mayb aku nk pnjam utk gi gig.powr gile baju tuh.alamak.magnicide tak jadik.adei.potong nih.bundle tu power.aku nk beli kasut keje kat situ nnti.
