KUALA LUMPUR: If you were plugged into the Malay heavy metal scene in the 1990s and early 2000s, you would be familiar with T-Rex, the charismatic frontman of the band Kamikaze.
As one of the few non-Malay singers who performed in Malay, T-Rex stood out, and was quickly embraced by fans.
His husky, gravel-lined voice anchored hits such as “Luhur”, “Tawa Dalam Tangisan” and “Pergi Selamanya”, which helped propel the band to success.
