AZMYL YUNOR is the only independent/underground Malaysian artist to have a musical theatre staged (besides P. Ramlee) about him (Something I Wrote [2013]) – has dabbled in, amongst others, folk rock, punk, free-form instrumentals and experimental noise rock for the past two decades. Although widely known as a singer-songwriter, he is also the founding member of seminal bands like quad-lingual punk rockers Ben's Bitches, avant-rockers The Maharajah Commission and fire-breathing-crossdressing no wavers Ciplak in the early 2000s. Informed by the DIY punk ethos & philosophy, he has shared the stage with acts as far ranging as local punk legends Carburetor Dung, American folk punk poet Jeffrey Lewis, chanteuse Yuna, Japanese rock legend Damo Suzuki, and singer/composer M.Nasir. Since 1997, he has been independently releasing a growing discography of recordings. Azmyl has also published writings on music subcultures, moral panics & cultural politics and hosts his own BFM radio show on country music in between his busy schedule. A rare talent in combining angst, wit, and humility seamlessly both in his bi-lingual songs and in his legendary onstage banter (a legitimate stand-up comedy routine by itself), Azmyl is a force of nature by local standards who abides by his own rules and lives by the late gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson's maxim, "When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro."
