Have you ever listened to a band and said to yourself...holy shit is that band awesome , I wish more people could hear them? Well, here is your chance! Similar to Sirius Radio's Liquid Metal in which a fan guest DJs playing some of their favorite tunes, you the reader are here to takeover the pages of Heavy Planet for the day. Today's edition features five bands courtesy of Muhammad Athif from Indonesia.
To those that have participated in our "Reader Takeover" we truly appreciate your time. Unfortunately, we did not get as many requests as we had hoped for this feature and will no longer be accepting submissions.
Now, on with the show...
1. Seringai
The fastest southern rock thrashers alive in my country, it's a combination of Sabbath and Motorhead and other influences from Kyuss to Turbonegro.

2. Komunal
They started as a grindcore band, but now they play stoner metal and prehistoric heavy metal sounds.

3. Auman
The freshmen in the scene, they released their debut in 2013 as a catchy southern heavy rock from Palembang, North Sumatra.

Really loved the selection in Reader Takeover Vol 5, has put a smile on my face on a damp grey UK afternoon. Particularly like Matiasu and Komunal, also a mention for Seringai - sounds a bit like the first Anthrax album, and that ain't a bad thing for those of us old enough to remember it. Good stuff, and thanks loads guys.
