Bio
MARJINAL Marjinal is not just a band (although they are all rockstars ha ha) but exist more as a broad independent community. Marjinal also has been known as Taring Babi, AFRA (Anti Fasis Anti Rasis), and Tempe Quality. This means that they want to destroy the mainstream labeling system that exists today. Mike, one of the founders of Marjinal says that one of their main aims is to fight against discrimination of all kinds by exposing the everyday discrimination against punks. 'Because we have tattoos and piercings, people, and particularly the media, label us to try to dismiss our message. Punk is not a fashion statement. It is a way of life which is about being independent and opposing injustice.' Activities Marjinal has been agitating with their music and art in the outskirts of Jakarta for almost ten years. As a community, they are committed to fighting for equality and justice and often joins forces with local bands, media collectives, and workers' organisations to build events and campaigns that are inclusive and creative. Their homebase aslo serves as a distro where they sell tshirts, badges, pins, and albums they have made. Contact a: Jl.
