Within the limits of the very gig, attendees can have interesting sub-event i.e mini expo, Barongan Dance, art-work exhibition, and food bazaar.

Metal Blora Bersatu is a prominent underground community in Blora Regency who was formed on December 28, 2011. Since its birth, MBB has sustained a campaign for Blora public attention about the positive characters of  local metal music enthusiasts through a series of motivational and social activities. In other words, not only setting up gigs, MBB also creates some social causes such as traditional arts preservation, local economic development projects and sustainable environment project.

On preserving the local traditional arts, MBB set an agreement with  local prominent dance studio Sardulo Suro Dilogo. MBB always showcases the studio’s Barongan dancers and instrumentalists in every single gig they set up. According to Awan Egunsu from MBB in his interview with www.Musik.or.id, almost 50% of its members take part in Barongan dance activities in their own neighborhoods. To promote local batik, MBB releases a unique batik line named Batik Metal Blora.

MBB owns an agribusiness outfit called Blora Metal Agro who runs its farming and husbandry sectors. One of its products is frozen chicken branded as DePiku. They also created MetalFeed who produces feed crops and poultry feeds. All outfits employ the MBB’s members.

On environmental preservation, MBB creates Metal Green, an initiative to replant trees around Blora area. The tree re-plantation project usually happens during or before a gig  as a satellite event.

This year’s Road to Penghuni Kota Mati is also accompanied by Metal Green. This time Metal Green will do the tree re-plantation in Desa Jomblang, Jepon sub-district, on March 12, 2017.

To date, MBB has two gig franchises: Penghuni Kota Mati and Sesaji Ambal Warso. Penghuni Kota Mati was kicked of in 2012 as the society’s flagship gig. Sesaji Ambal Warso is an annual event to commemorate the MBB birthday.
