I think most of you by this time have heard about Azlan the lead vocalist of Meet Uncle Hussain leaving the band. Now apparently he is back in the scene with a new band, Azlan & The Typewriter.

According to certain sources, the reason Azlan, leave Meet Uncle Hussain is due to them having creative differences, Azlan having interpersonal disagreements with the rest of the band. Other sources says that Azlan have been having some discipline issues with the band. Not coming to practice and stuff. I’m not sure of whatever the reason is, so Azlan if you are reading this, get in touch with us, we would love to have an interview, you could clear things up.

One thing for sure, the reason Azlan quit is not because he wants to stop performing or that he wanted to try something different. Azlan & The Typewriter had one single released, ‘Kalibat Si Penyair’. Already this track have been getting some air time on radios.

Check out the song ‘Kelibat si Penyair’

For those who haven’t heard of Azlan &The Typewriter, you might be easily mistaken that it’s a new Meet Uncle Hussain’s song. What makes Meet Uncle Hussain unique at that time was Azlan’s voice and style, which to me sound like a cross between British band Suede and Placebo. Azlan & The Typewrite sounds exactly as Meet Uncle Hussain. Maybe Azlan’s voice and style is the factor that made Meet Uncle Hussain what they are now, which is a household name.

However, Meet Uncle Hussain are still pretty much alive. I’ve also been told that the band had found a replacement for Azlan and that the replacement sounds exactly like Azlan. It is as if Azlan never had left. I had never seen any of Meet Uncle Hussain performance post Azlan era yet, so I’m not sure.

Both Meet Uncle Hussain and Azlan & The Typewriter will be performing at Rock The World 9.
