Playing M.A.S.H. with The Impatient Sisters
9:52 PM
Remember playing that game called M.A.S.H.? Where you pick 4 options from each category of things like celebrity names, places, career, and eventually you 'find out' your future?
The Impatient Sisters, Malaysia's favourite indie folk band of siblings took some time from promoting their first full length album to play the 'school-kid' paper game with us at Bubblebeam Magazine.
But first, a little introduction about them, just in case you aren't in the loop just yet. But you'll soon agree with us that their music will soon be in your heads and hearts.
The Impatient Sisters, consisting of three actual sisters Irena, Nazeera and Soraya, hail from Kuantan and describe their sound as expressive, with a romantic depth, blending together soul and folk pop and creating a unique flavour of music. Their music and word-of-mouth-worthy live shows got more and more people flocking to find out what they are all about, and their fan-base admittedly find themselves more cheery and satisfied, the more they listen to the band.
So before we play M.A.S.H., let's get to know them a little bit more.
Could you tell the readers what the 'impatient' in 'The Impatient Sisters" mean, and how you guys figured you could team up as a band?
The Impatient in our name means not being able to stand each other. We didn't! We were destined to be sisters. God decided we were gonna be a team.
Who had recognised talent in music first?
Irena
Who takes longer to get ready to go out?
Nazeera
Who's the most ambitious?
Irena
Who's the one who excelled most in school?
Soraya
Who's the loudest of the group?
We are equally quiet. Our "loud" is your quiet.
Your music, especially from your album is absolutely unique and it is hard to compare to anything else in the indie folk genre, so which artist from a totally different genre could you say that you guys are inspired the most?
Thank you! Indian classical music.
What are your personal favourite songs in your new album?
Soraya: Hey There Young Sailor
Nazeera: And
Irena: Untitled
So to play M.A.S.H., we asked Soraya, Nazeera and Irena to pick 4 choices from each category in the game. 3 choices can be excellent ones, and 1 of the choice in each category has to be more of the unwanted kind.
Here's what they picked.
1. Celebrity names.
T.I.S.: Kim Kardashian, Taylor Swift, Freddie Mercury, Miley Cyrus
2. Jobs.
T.I.S.: Musician, Baker, Dancer, Cow teeth-brusher
4. Child names.
T.I.S.: Seroja, Lily, Lucy, Gujigu
5. Places in the world.
6. Homes.
(Picked for them, just like the real game): Mansion, Apartment, Shack, House
And lastly, they were asked to pick a number from 1-10.
They picked 3.
So, without further ado, here's what their 'future' holds.
THE IMPATIENT SISTERS WILL MARRY: Miley Cyrus.
THE IMPATIENT SISTERS' JOBS WILL BE: Cow tooth brushers.
THE NAME OF THEIR NEW SISTER WILL BE CALLED: Lily.

| surpriiiise! |
THE BAND WILL SOON BE BASED IN: Boston.
AND LASTLY, THEIR HOMES WOULD BE: A shack.
Getting mostly the unlucky answers, with the exception of being based in Boston and suddenly gaining a new sister, the game does not really do the trio any justice but it was fun to play M.A.S.H. with them, nonetheless.
May their homes be outstanding shack mansions in Boston, may Miley Cyrus find love elsewhere, and may the band stay far away from the teeth of cows.
