Animals As Leaders

August 3, 2010 Write a Comment Music, Promote

After seeing this video, that is also embeded on this post after the jump, I immediately fell in love with Animals As Leaders.

Yeah, a very short post, and I never really did write something very lengthy because I easily get my brains to sway away from the topic.

One notable recent release that you might want to check out is Arcade Fire‘s The Suburbs if you want an easy escape. SEE I swayed. (Continued…)

Michael Jackson popped out!

June 28, 2009 1 comment Music

Learning about his death hinted conspiracy(!) to me. Why? Well, there were tour dates for next month, July, in UK with sold out tickets. “This Is It” was the now prophetic title of the tour. Dates after the jump which, I would assume, will become a series of tribute concerts as a way for the organizers to still make money out of him. We all know Michael Jackson have not performed in the past years due to health issues and the highly publicized scandal.

Maybe because I was too young to get hooked to his music during his prime but the name Michael Jackson always got my respect. Always one of the people, real people, in popular music that I think had faith in their craft and was never afraid to showcase it to anyone.

He may not be a great loss for the music industry in the present but his legacy will always be. Now the world will start missing you, Michael. (Continued…)

NIN live in Manila!

March 31, 2009 Write a Comment Events, Music

Again, Nine Inch Nails is to play at the Araneta Coliseum in Manila come August 5 this year!

And, as an added invitation, the band plans on going for hiatus after the tour. That means this could be our only and last chance to see NIN live, Philippines!

Tickets are not yet available but the guys from SPLINTR.COM are cooking up something. Stay tuned by registering.

Always looked up to the vision of this man. The ever so conscious Filipino that he is.

He may have lost his battle with Leukemia but the fire that he’d sparked in our hearts will always remain burning.

May The Almighty rest his soul well.

Goodbye, Freeman.

Faith No More reunites! But only for Europe?

February 26, 2009 Write a Comment Music

I’d love to see this but why just Europe? My brilliant economist mind told me that it’s the currency, man, the money!

Probably.

For whatever reason, if it’s related to worldwide economic recession, I don’t care. It should be fun to party again with the band who brought “Angel Dust” and “The Real Thing” to the world again.
