Top Ten


Top 10 Local Bands :)

There are many great local bands but these are the only bands I can think of right now. :p

1.) Wolfgang - They are the definition of "solid". `Nuff said.

2.) Razorback - A band from the 90's era. They're a hard rock band, but they have a little funky style of playing.

3.) P.O.T. - This band sometimes sounds like Razorback, because the vocalists of the two bands are brothers (namely Kevin Roy and Karl Roy). Their music is funky and can make you dance.

4.) Eraserheads - Everyone knows them. I must say that they were the most prominent band in the 90's. They were very influential back then, especially to the sound of the so-called "Pinoy rock".

5.) Bamboo - They are indeed a great band. All members are great, each one of them is master in his instrument. And did I mention that they are very versatile when it comes to musicality?

6.) Urbandub - They're one of the best bands in the country today. Each one of them has his own influences. I think that's how they had their distinct sound - they fused different musical styles. I still like them even if they went mainstream. Gabby Alipe writes good lyrics, btw.

7.) Queso (Cheese) - Solid drum parts, sweet basslines, nice guitar parts, scratchy turntables, and an eccentric way of singing (and screaming). Mix it all, and you have Queso - a band that's great because of their uniqueness.

8.) Up Dharma Down - I love them. They're another unique band. Their style is very distinct, all the instrument parts are like in an equilibrium. Nothing gets more dominant than the others. It's a perfect mix, along with Armi's heavenly voice.

9.) Reklamo - They have solid basslines, drumbeats, and guitar parts. I like em because their lyrics vent out frustrations
and angst.

10.) Taken by Cars - A shoegaze band with colorful melodies, dance-inspired beats, and androgynous vocals.

killing some time before eating dinner


it seems that i dont care about school work these days. ive been very lazy with school since last week. i havent brought anything school-related - only my filecase and pencilcase are inside my bag when i go home.

the only thing i do at home is sit in front of the pc, killing the time by watching a bunch of stupid videos and by listening to loud music with shrill vocals and eardrum-piercing guitar riffs.

i dont know why it seems that i get tired of everything. i think the only thing i'd like to do lately is to sleep.

idk. maybe this the effect of listening to too much underoath and LoG songs, or maybe im just hungry. or maybe this is just another way of killing time.
