Slomo
Read that again. It’s pronounced as slowmow. It’s a song from the Eraserheads, the one band that made history in the Philippines. I remember watching their live video performance last month on YouTube. Watch them by going to this link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoZ3JB0vBug Slomo is the second song you’ll be hearing on the video.

Spiders
I remember this System of A Down song. It’s so wicked. We covered this song when I was still in a band. It’s unforgettable because we won that band contest back then.
Blue And Yellow
And it’s all in how you mix the two and it starts just where the light exists. It’s a feeling that you cannot miss and it burns a hole through everyone that feels it… Love this song. Love the drum pattern.
Bogchi Hokbu
Eraserheads- one of the Philippines’ most monumental rock band ever. But where are they now? I’ve been listening to Circus, Ultraelectromagnetic Pop, Sticker Happy and Natin 99 lately and I must admit that I really missed these guys. Who wouldn’t? I grew up as a highschool kid listening to them and they have really influenced some of my points of view and of course my music. Will...
Back at Tumblr
After going offline for several days, or more than a week, I’ve finally returned here on Tumblr. There was no updates on my Tumblr blog because my wife just gave birth to our new born son, Criss David. Well let’s get back to music. I heard Korn has finally released Evolution. Haven’t bought it yet but I’m going to after work.

Torturing ears with iTunes 7
I finally gave up on MusicMatch and Windows Media Player. I’ve started using iTunes since yesterday. I love the slick interface and design. When you are choosing between albums, it’s like iPhone. It’s cool. Too bad I don’t have an iPod but I have a PSP but it’s not compatible with iTunes. So what?
Candles Lit at Both Ends
Can you guess from what song did the title of this post came from? If you’re undecided, well you are right. It’s from Undecided, a song on Silverchair’s Frogstomp album.
Erasers At Both Ends
The answers are everywhere. Answers to what? The Question that is. Listen to Emery.
Dying Is Your Latest Fashion
I’ve been listening to the emocore quintet from Las Vegas, Escape The Fate. I really dig this band. I love the melody and the guitar licks both Omar Espinoza and Bryan Money are delivering. I also love Ronnie Radke’s voice. This band is a must see. You will love their energetic and visceral live shows.
Relaxing with Continuum
The weather has been acting weird lately and I’m not feeling good. I need to relax my mind and body that’s why I’ve been listening to John Mayer’s Continuum lately.
Smashing Pumpkins on Live Earth
Yeah, they’re back. Although I haven’t heard of their latest album yet, they will be playing on Live Earth, The concerts for a Climate in Crisis. Billy Corgan knew he can’t go on alone that’s why he reunited the Smashing Pumpkins. Go baldie!
Thrice on a New Beginning
Thrice, another band on my playlist is surely gonna be rockin’ my brains out today. I’m listening to Vheissu, their latest album. On the news which I got from Alchemy Index, the band’s official journal, the band stated that they had already parted ways with Island Records.
Silverstein: Arrivals and Departures
On my way to work today I had my PSP headsets on and I was listening to Silverstein’s latest album. In fact I’m still listening to ‘em right now. It’s wicked. This is one album no hardcore screamo fan should miss. It will be officially released tomorrow but I don’t know how I got it.

Weezer is finally going to the studio this July to record their 6th and upcoming album. I checked out the Weezer website and they’re planning to release their new batch of hit songs on the first half of 2008. Well, I can’t wait.
Conviction
Watch out for the upcoming album of Aiden this August 20th, 2007. I’ve been listening to Aiden for quite sometime and these Seattle rockers sure give me nice listening pleasure.

Finally, here’s the track list from Silverstein’s upcoming album, Arrivals & Departures Sound of the Sun Bodies and Words If You Could See Into My Soul Worlds Apart My Disaster Still Dreaming The Sand Will Turn To Glass Here Today, Gone Tomorrow Vanity and Greed Love With Caution True Romance You can also listen online to the two of their new songs on MySpace!
Hawthorne Heights covers Smashing Pumpkins
Checkout Hawthorne Heights MySpace page and listen to their rendition of Bullet With Butterfly Wings.
Young Modern
This is the title of Silverchair’s latest album. If you listen to it you’d notice the big change on the music especially on the guitars. There’s no more loud distorted guitars but it still sounds good in anyway. i love Daniel John’s song writing.
Frogstompin' with Silverchair
Just yesterday, I was listening to the Offspring. I just removed it from the playlist and replaced it with Silverchair’s Frogstomp. Some people call this album FrogStone which is a misconception. Well if you haven’t heard yet, the trio, Silverchair has released their latest album entitled Young Modern a few months ago.
Where is Wes Borland?
Does anybody have an idea where he is right now? Please let me know. Email me: fatfingur[at]gmail[dot]com
Starin' at the Sun
Maybe life is like a ride on the freeway… Dexter Holland and the rest of the band are at it again. The Offspring will be touring Japan this August. I’m listening to their Americana album right now.
Armor For Sleep
Playing on my PSP right now is Armor For Sleep. I’ve downloaded two of their albums into my gadget and I’m really grateful it helps ease the pain of boredom. I mean who wouldn’t love “Car Underwater”?
Korn evolving on Evolution
I checked out KoRn’s website and I found out they’re releasing their latest album. It will be available on stores on July 31, 2007. I can’t wait for the release.
Thursday
Geoff, Tom, Steve, Andrew, Tim and Tucker - the guys collectively known as Thursday is one of the bands I love. I love all their songs and their last 3 albums. They’re on my playlist right now.
Linkin Park: Minutes to Midnight
I’m not really a Linkin Park fan but I heard they have a new album out. It’s called Minutes to Midnight. Also they’ll be heading the Projekt Revolution Tour with My Chemical Romance, and Taking Back Sunday. Other bands on the tour are Saosin, Him, Placebo, Julien-K, Mindless Self Indulgence, Styles of Beyond, The Bled and Madina Lake.
The Nightwatchman
If you didn’t already know about Tom Morello’s solo project, well he calls himself the Nightwatchman. Listen to his songs on the Nightwatchman website. You won’t hear him make experimental and weird guitar sounds and effects, but instead you’ll hear his lowly voice. Cool.
Rage Against The Machine Reunited
RATM has been one of the greatest bands of all time. Well, at least in my opinion. But I mean who wouldn’t agree with me. Who would not bow onto Tom Morello’s guitar powers. Or Zach’s awesome song writing and rap. I mean these guys are the best altogether with Timmy C. and Brad Wilk. Well, actually I found out a new site about Rage Against The Machine. Check out this url:...

Where are the Smashing Pumpkins?
I haven’t heard from these guys for awhile. Where are the Smashing Pumpkins? Their best album so far is Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. I was enjoying it when I was in highschool. I kinda miss their music.
Follow The Leader
I’m listening to Korn’s Follow the Leader album on my PSP while I’m at work. I miss these guys. I miss the original line-up. I wish they’ll be able to have a reunion tour with Brian “Head” Welch. It’s On!
My Chemical Romance Music Video: Teenagers
This might be a bit late but one of my fave bands, My Chemical Romance has released another amazing music video, Teenagers. You can see it on MTV.
Story of The Year DVD out soon!
I visited Story of The Year’s Website and I have read the most recent post on their diary. Their DVD is almost out and according to Phil, the bands guitarist, the paperworks are all ironed out and it’s about to be released sometime soon. Although he didn’t mention any date, I’ll be expecting it to be sooner. I really can’t wait to have my hands on it. If you...
Discovering the Waterfront
I know a lot of you guys have already heard about this album. Well in fact, I might be too late posting about this. Discovering the Waterfront was released about last year and ever since it was released I was listening to this album almost everyday. Yeah their songs are always part of my playlist on my very cool mp3 player, the PSP. Silverstein’s guitar riffs are addicting and driving me...

Lies For the Liars
Hey there. Does the title of this post sound familiar to you? If you are a fan of The Used, the band from Utah, then you know what’s this is all about. Yeah, this is actually something new. It’s the latest album from The Used and I’ve been listening to it for the last two days. It’s actually quite addicting. It’s on the top of my playlist on my Playstation Portable....
Boys Night Out
Monmon, the sound engineer, told me about a new band called Boys Night Out. He told me it sounded like Story of the Year but I got my hands on their album and listened to it and I thought it was quite different. I mean it doesn’t sound like Story of the Year. Yeah it’s emo alright but it sounded more like Size 14 — Wait, no. It sounds like, well, cool actually. I really like...
