THE EFFECTS OF VOCALIST DRINK THE CHICKEN’S BLOOD

THE EFFECTS OF VOCALIST DRINK THE CHICKEN’S BLOOD

 

As  we know that blood isdisgusting, but not in this book “THE EFFECTS OF VOCALIST DRINK THE CHICKEN’S BLOOD”. There are many unique properties contained in chicken blood.what is the content  that found in chicken blood? .. Chicken blood contains an energy of 77 kilo calories, 13.8 grams of protein, 0.7 grams carbohydrates, 1.9 grams fat, 15 milligrams of calcium, phosphorus 9 milligrams, and iron 1 milligram. Chicken’s blood also contains 50 IU of vitamin A, vitamin B1 and 0.02 milligrams of vitamin C 0 milligrams. It turns out a lot of nutrients contained in chicken’s blood, then obviously have unique benefits also for physical and vocal sounds.

 

As the vocalist especially vocalist Blackmetal are always working with the sounds extreme. To be able to hear the sound emitted extreme and pitch can reach high notes can be done by drinking the blood of a chicken and certain exercises. For they have such a fat content of 1.9 grams which hold hoarseness became growl / scream. In the 90s band called Cradle Of Filth's wing rock vocalist named Dany Filth is one of the lead singer of rock band who drank the blood of a chicken before each show. Proven in his song titled Nymphetamine with extreme enough voice and high-pitch tone, when interviewed on Hammersonic concert in Indonesia in 2012. Later in the 2000s era of Indonesian band named Xavier and wing Blackmetal also perform the ritual drinking the blood of a chicken 1 day before the appearance. The band was born in Malang Xavier and longer seasons Blackmetal at that time. Incidentally I am familiar with the nephew of singer Xavier named Farhan Alzavier, after I was wondering about the band's profile Xavier, it turns out they were inspired by the rock band born Sufolk, England named Cradle Of Filth and there are many more bands their favorites. In addition they drink the blood of chickens as a ritual.

 

The next step is the usefulness of chicken’s blood to the appearance of a less energetic. Because of calories, proteins and carbohydrates are useful for the body to stay fit and always excited when performing. Like the bands listed above always use chicken’s blood as a trigger to keep it brutal spirit while performing and as a ritual to their appearance. Not only metal bands who use chicken’s blood as Performance, but there are also bands Rock Comedy that use chicken blood to amaze the audience with his performance.

 

So basically, the content of chicken’s blood its consists of calories, protein, carbohydrates, fat, calcium, phosphorus and iron and vitamin A, vitamin B and vitamin C can help hoarseness be Growl / Scream, raise the pitch of the tone to outclass and appearance that seemed brutal and scary and body always fit and eager, specifically members of the rock band.

 

 

 

 

EFEK MEMINUM DARAH AYAM PADA VOKALIS

            Yang kita ketahui adalah darah itu menjijikkan, tetapi tidak didalam buku ini. Ada banyak khasiat unik yang terkandung dalam darah ayam. Kandungan apa saja sih yang terdapat pada darah ayam? Darah ayam mengandung energi sebesar 77 kilo kalori, protein 13,8 gram, karbohidrat 0,7 gram, lemak 1,9 gram, kalsium 15 miligram, fosfor 9 miligram, dan zat besi 1 miligram. Darah ayam juga mengandung vitamin A 50 IU, vitamin B1 0,02 miligram dan vitamin C 0 miligram. Ternyata banyak sekali gizi yang terkandung pada darah ayam, maka jelas mempunyai manfaat yang unik juga untuk suara vokal dan fisik.

            Seperti pada suara vokalis terutama vokalis Blackmetal yang selalu berkarya dengan suara-suara extrem. Agar suara yang dikeluarkan bisa terdengar extrem dan pitch bisa mencapai nada tinggi bisa dilakukan dengan meminum darah ayam dan latihan-latihan tertentu. Karena didalamnya terdapat kandungan lemak 1,9 gram yang menahan suara serak kemudian menjadi growl/sream. Pada tahun 90an band bernama Cradle Of Filth yang beraliran cadas ini dengan vokalis bernama Dany Filth yaitu salah satu vokalis band cadas yang meminum darah ayam sebelum tiap kali tampil. Terbukti dalam lagunya berjudul Nymphetamine dengan suaranya yang cukup extrem dan pitch nada yang tinggi, saat di wawancarai pada konser Hammersonic di Indonesia pada tahun 2012. Kemudian di era tahun 2000an band Indonesia yang bernama Xavier dan beraliran Blackmetal ini juga melakukan ritual meminum darah ayam 1 hari sebelum penampilan. Band Xavier ini lahir di Malang dan lagi musim-musimnya Blackmetal pada saat itu. Kebetulan saya kenal dengan keponakan dari vokalis Xavier yang bernama Farhan Alzavier, setelah saya bertanya-tanya tentang profil band Xavier, ternyata mereka terinspirasi oleh band cadas kelahiran Sufolk,Inggris bernama Cradle Of Filth dan ada banyak lagi band-band favotir mereka. Selebihnya mereka meminum darah ayam sebagi ritual.

            Yang berikut yaitu kegunaan darah ayam untuk penampilan yang lebih enerjik. Karena mengandung kalori, protein dan karbohidrat berguna untuk tubuh agar tetap fit dan selalu bersemangat saat tampil. Seperti band-band yang ada diatas selalu menggunakan darah ayam sebagai pemicu semangat agar tetap terlihat brutal saat tampil dan sebagai ritual untuk prnampilan mereka. Tidak hanya band-band metal saja yang menggunakan darah ayam sebagai peforma, tetapi ada juga band Rock Comedy yg menggunakan darah ayam untuk memukau penonton dengan penampilannya.

            Jadi pada dasarnya, kandungan darah ayam yang tediri dari kalori, protein, karbohidrat, lemak, kalsium, fosfor dan zat besi serta vitamin A, vitamin B dan vitamin C dapat membantu suara serak menjadi Growl/Scream, menaikkan pitch ke nada yang lebih tinggi dan penampilan agar terkesan brutal dan menakutkan serta badan selalu fit dan bersemangat, khususnya jajaran band cadas.

The Freedom of Ants

The Freedom of Ants

 

Ants are very small animals and often got the oppression by the animals which are greater than them. One of the animals that colonize the ants was grasshoppers. Every day they ordered the ants to find food and collect it. When the food was collected, then a locust took the food and put it in the nest. Every day the ants were given the job and had to work without stopping.

 

Many ants had died because of the exhaustion at work and that condition always continued. In the ants’ colony, there were two ants which were very brave and always plotted a rebellion. The two ants named Riandi and Anggara. They invited others to subvert the power possessed by the locusts. However, no ant dared to unite and overthrew the power of locusts. Most ants thought that the condition was a destiny and a willing of God which should be received.

 

Riandi and Anggara never gave up and kept trying to get a lot of members in order to destroy the colony owned by the locusts. One day, the king’s son died because of running the food out. Each food was given entirely to the locust, so the young king died by starvation. This happening realized the ants that they had to fight and led their own nation.

 

Anggara Riandi and serve as the leader of the rebellion. Ant Riandi is very expert in making weapons while Anggara is an expert in creating ant war strategy. Several weeks later, Riandi has managed to make hundreds of weapons without being noticed by the locusts. Meanwhile, Anggara and all ants have agreed that they will attack the headquarters of the grasshopper when the evening. Before the army ants supplied by arms, they soon moved to the headquarters of locusts through existing tunnels underground.

 

When they arrived, Anggara immediately gave orders for the ants were divided into 10 groups and dispersed to every corner. They then came out of the tunnel through the holes dug. After all the soldiers out of the tunnel, then they fired weapons into the bodies of each grasshopper. In less than ten seconds, many locusts are dying due to exposure to the toxins produced by these weapons. The attack carried out continuously for one night, and the next day, the ants have won the fight. They returned home with a sense of joy because it had been free from colonization by locusts. Meanwhile, Riandi and Anggara appointed as the new king. Ants lived happily and peacefully because of their brave.

Kemerdekaan Semut

 

Semut adalah hewan yang sangat kecil dan seringkali mendapatkan penindasan dari hewan-hewan yang lebih besar. Salah satu hewan yang menjajah semut adalah belalang. Setiap hari mereka memerintahkan semut untuk mencari makanan dan mengumpulkannya. Ketika makanan sudah terkumpul, maka belalang mengambil makanan tersebut dan menaruhnya di sarang mereka. Setiap hari semut diberikan tugas tersebut dan harus bekerja tanpa berhenti.

 

Sudah banyak semut yang mati karena kelelahan bekerja namun keadaan ini terus berlanjut. Dari keseluruhan semut tersebut, ada dua ekor semut yang sangat berani dan selalu merencanakan pemberontakan. Dua semut tersebut bernama Riandi dan Anggara. Mereka mengajak semut yang lain untuk menumbangkan kekuasaan yang dimiliki oleh belalang. Namun, tidak ada yang berani untuk bersatu dan menumbangkan kekuasaan belalang. Kebanyakan semut berpikir bahwa penjajahan yang sedang terjadi merupakan takdir dan merupakan kehendak dari Tuhan yang harus mereka terima.

 

Riandi dan Anggara tidak pernah menyerah dan terus berusaha untuk mendapatkan banyak teman dalam rangka menghancurkan koloni yang dimiliki oleh belalang. Pada suatu hari, anak raja semut meninggal dunia karena kehabisan makanan. Makanan yang ada sudah diberikan seluruhnya pada belalang sehingga anak sang raja meninggal karena kelaparan. Peristiwa tersebut menyadarkan para semut bahwa mereka harus melawan dan memimpin bangsa mereka sendiri.

 

Riandi dan Anggara dijadikan sebagai pemimpin pemberontakan. Riandi adalah semut yang sangat ahli dalam membuat senjata sementara Anggara adalah semut yang ahli dalam menciptakan strategi perang. Beberapa minggu kemudian, Riandi telah berhasil membuat ratusan senjata tanpa diketahui oleh belalang. Sementara itu, Anggara dan semua semut telah sepakat bahwa mereka akan menyerang markas besar belalang ketika malam hari. Sebelum tentara semut dibekali oleh senjata, mereka segera bergerak ke markas belalang melalui terowongan-terowongan yang ada di bawah tanah.

 

Ketika mereka sampai, Anggara segera memberikan perintah agar semut dibagi menjadi 10 kelompok dan berpencar ke setiap sudut. Mereka kemudian keluar dari terowongan tersebut lewat lubang-lubang yang digali. Setelah semua tentara keluar dari terowongan, maka mereka menembakkan senjata tersebut ke tubuh-tubuh setiap belalang. Dalam waktu kurang dari sepuluh detik, sudah banyak belalang yang mati karena terkena racun yang dihasilkan oleh senjata tersebut. Penyerangan dilakukan secara terus-menerus selama satu malam, dan pada esok hari, semut telah memenangkan pertarungan. Mereka kembali ke rumah dengan rasa gembira karena telah terbebas dari penjajahan yang dilakukan oleh belalang. Sementara itu, Riandi dan Anggara diangkat sebagai raja yang baru. Semut hidup bahagia dan damai karena tindakan mereka yang berani.

The Arrogant Tree

The Arrogant Tree

 

In a forest, there is a tree that was so big and so beautiful. However, the trees were so arrogant because not all of the animals were allowed to stay on a branch and perch that he had. One day, there was a beautiful white bird that wanted to perch on her branch. The bird asked, "Could I stay on your branch?" The tree replied "Of course you can, because you are a very pretty bird". The beautiful bird perched on a branch and then stayed for a long time on the tree.

 

On the next week, the tree saw a sick rabbit with the falling out of hair. The rabbit was so exhausted from walking because he wanted to meet the physicians in the forest edge. He saw the rabbit and he knew that the rabbit was being sick because the face was pale and the hair was falling out. However, he was reluctant to offer a help to the rabbit because he was disgusted with the disease.

 

Because of so tired, the rabbit asked permission from him to take the shelter and a rest for a moment near his roots. However, he did not allow it for fear of contracting the disease of the rabbit. He snapped the rabbit and told him to get out and went away from him. The rabbit continued to beg in order to have a rest even though only a few minutes. He still did not allow the rabbits and even getting snapped.

 

The rabbit felt so humiliated and prayed to God that purpose to the punishment for the tree in accordance with his behavior. When the rabbit prayed, he was laughing and said that the rabbits did the silly things.

 

Rabbit prayer was granted by God and the beautiful tree immediately attacked caterpillars. Gradually, the leaves which were owned by the tree were falling out and the flowers withered. He was not the beautiful tree anymore and just being a rod that would die soon. After being withered, he continued to pray to God and being so kind to others. He has repented and promised not to repeat the cavalier attitude that he had before. Then, God forgave him and sent the golden woodpecker to eat the caterpillars which were present throughout the body. After cleaning the caterpillars on his body, the tree turned back into a very beautiful tree.

 

He kept his promise for not bragging and keeping to help others. Currently, he was liked by all the residents of the forest and he lived happily.

 

Artinya :

 

Pohon yang Sombong

 

Di sebuah hutan, terdapat sebuah pohon yang begitu besar dan indah. Namun, pohon tersebut begitu sombong karena tidak semua hewan ia perbolehkan hinggap dan tinggal di dahan yang ia miliki. Suatu hari, ada seekor burung jarak berwarna putih dan indah ingin hinggap di ranting miliknya. Buruk jalak tersebut bertanya, “bolehkah aku hingga di rantingmu?” sang pohon menjawab “tentu saja boleh karena kau adalah burung yang sangat cantik”. Burung jalak kemudian hinggap di dahan dan tinggal dalam waktu yang lama di pohon tersebut.

 

Minggu berikutnya, sang pohon melihat seekor kelinci yang sakit dan rambutnya banyak yang rontok. Kelinci tersebut kelelahan karena berjalan cukup jauh untuk menemui tabib yang ada di pinggir hutan. Ia melihat kelinci tersebut dan mengetahui bahwa sang kelinci nampaknya sedang sakit karena wajahnya yang pucat serta bulunya yang rontok. Namun, ia merasa enggan untuk menawarkan bantuan kepada kelinci karena ia merasa jijik terhadap penyakit kelinci tersebut.

 

Karena begitu lelah, sang kelinci meminta izin kepada dirinya untuk berteduh dan beristirahat sejenak di dekat akarnya. Namun, ia tidak mengizinkannya karena takut tertular penyakit sang kelinci. Ia membentak kelinci tersebut dan menyuruhnya agar segera pergi serta menjauh darinya. Kelinci tersebut terus memohon agar bisa beristirahat meskipun hanya beberapa menit. Ia tetap tidak mengizinkan kelinci dan bahkan semakin membentaknya.

 

Sang kelinci putus asa dank arena merasa begitu terhina, kelinci tersebut berdoa kepada Tuhan agar sang pohon mendapatkan hukuman yang sesuai dengan tingkah lakunya. Ketika sang kelinci berdoa, sang pohon malah tertawa dan berkata bahwa sang kelinci melakukan hal konyol.

 

Doa kelinci tersebut dikabulkan oleh Tuhan dan pohon yang indah segera diserang ulat. Lambat laun, daun yang dimiliki oleh pohon tersebut rontok dan bunga yang dimilikinya menjadi layu. Ia bukan lagi pohon yang indah dan hanya menjadi sebuah batang yang sebentar lagi akan mati. Setelah menjadi layu, ia terus berdoa kepada tuhan dan berbuat baik kepada orang lain. Ia telah bertaubat dan berjanji tidak lagi mengulangi sikap angkuh yang ia miliki. Kemudian, Tuhan memaafkannya dan mengirimkannya seekor burung pelatuk berwarna emas untuk memakan ulat yang ada di seluruh tubuhnya. Setelah burung pelatuk tersebut membersihkan ulat yang berada ditubuhnya, sang pohon berubah kembali menjadi pohon yang sangat indah.

 

Ia menepati janjinya dengan tidak lagi menyombongkan diri dan tetap membantu orang lain. Saat ini, ia disukai oleh semua penduduk hutan dan ia hidup bahagia.
