About

Label: us and only us

Manager: Farez & Azmyl

Bio: We started out in 1999, consisting from a small-ish extended group of college friends. Realising, that we enjoyed each other's company and that musically we brought something different to the table, we came up with this band over a cuppa tea.

The name of the band essentially reflects our cynic... See Full Bio

Press

“the maharajah commission sings weird droning chanting Jello Biafra/Mike Patton weirdness, with strange bass sounds and guitar shards. Nice.”

— Peter?, Peter, Naoko and Zen Hoflich in Singapore

“In spite of finding songwriters like Dylan, Tom Waits and Queen among its influences, the bands musical output is completely off the wall. Barrages of white noise, dense dream-pop layers, melodic bass lines, discordant guitar chords, bluesy fills and cryptic singing all take turns assaulting listeners. This is very surprising considering that its layered works are actually improvised.”

— Adlin Rosli, KLUE

“Maharajah Commission is one of the rare Kuala Lumpur outfits confidently independent and punk enough to exploit its individuality and freedom. With mostly deconstructionist rock and exploratory instrumental jams, the band's debut Dialogue Amoureux is a sinister and unrepentant work of free-form experimentation that defies description.”

— Daryl Goh, The Star

“Variety and an attitude are what you get from Malaysian band The Maharajah Commission. Part punk, part rock, part Sonic Youth, The Maharajahs' new CD, Dialogue Amoureux, might even be called avant garde next to your usual metal and hardcore act.”

— Adam Md Yusop, BigO

“They segue into the epic, which in turn gives way to the staccato edge.”

— Adam Md Yusop, BigO

“'a Malaysian vampire love story'”

— Amirul Shakir, Malay Mail
