It has been a long time since I watched Fuseboxx. It was in Millenia (already closed) some time ago and it was Silent Sanctuary’s first album launch. I was able to get a copy of their 5-track EP entitled Listen. It has been two years since they’ve released their first album (Fuseboxx - 2005). With that, they are already working on their second album. So far, they do not have a working title yet. If you’ve been going to their gigs, the new song that they are playing entitled “Pagbalik” will perhaps be the first single of their upcoming album.

Via Ralphotskie, watch out for the third album from Moonstar88 under Sony BMG. The carrier single of the album will be their revival of Senti (an original of Yano). The album will be available in record bars around May. Moonstar88 is composed of Maychelle Baay (vocals/guitars), Paolo Bernardo (bass), Bon Sundiang (drums) and Herbert Hernandez (guitars). (more…)

It has been half a year since Sino SiKat? has released their single and music video Turning My Safety Off. Sino SiKat? will release their album under Warner Music Philippines soon. The album contains 10 tracks that can be described as a mixture of jazz, soul, funk and rock. Sino Sikat is composed of Kat Agarrado (vocals), Nick Azarcon (guitars), Reli de Vera (drums), Allen Umali (bass) and Nikki Cabardo (keys). (more…)

Around 2 years ago, I was able to watch The Bloomfields at Dish where my Dad celebrated his birthday. Apparently, he loves The Bloomfields because they have the sound of my Dad’s generation. They would usually cover songs by the Beach Boys and The Beatles. I can still remember that they also played an original or two that same night. (more…)

I just got some information from Barfly (I think he’s the manager of the band) that their bassist is Alamid’s original drummer Perry Jocson. They’ll be coming out with their debut album soon entitled My Favorite Band which features their first single “Time”. They have also come up with a music video already. Enjoy!

After the success of the albums of Light Peace Love and As the Music Plays, music stores are expected to be jammed up on February 23 with the much awaited release of their third album We Stand Alone Together. Featured in this album is Bamboo’s recent single Tatsulok which is an original of the group Buklod who’s known for their lyrics that’s relevant to the society that we live in.

The release of their single is timely since the elections are approaching soon and we are all aware that during these times, political violence is prevalent.

Check out the unofficial music videos uploaded in YouTube. The flash animation uploaded there has a simple concept yet it was able to show the message of the song in a bloody way. (more…)
