Ad Hominem Pa More!

08/14/2016 11:02:07 PM

Nakakatawa na ang mga pangyayari. Nakakatawa sa inis. Nakakatawa sa dismaya. Ito yata ang napapala natin kapag halos buong araw na lang tayong tumututok sa social media at hinahayaan tayong lamunin ng maruming salita na kung tawagin ay pulitika. 

Oo, sadyang maruming ang pulitika. Parang laro sa basketball na kailangan mong manggulang. Para sa wrestling din, kailangang maging kontrabida ka para maisulat ka na panalo ng mga eskriba.

We all know what's about to go down late this month: Brock Lesnar vs. Randy Orton in WWE's second biggest party called SummerSlam. The announcement took place even before Lesnar hit the weighing scale for his one-time show-off at the Ultimate Fighting Championship against Mark hunt last July.

Hindi lang nakaupo, may gana nang mamahiya sa social media. Alam mo, wala nang mas nakakairita pa kaysa sa isang babae na ginagamit ang pagka-babae sa social media para lang masabi na tama siya, hindi gentleman ang mga kalalakihan, mapansin sa mundo sa pamamaraan ng birtwalidad.

May Pokemon Go Na Sa Pinas! Eh Ano Ngayon?!

08/12/2016 08:09:51 PM

Sa wakas. Matapos ang ilang linggong alburoto sa Twitter at Facebook ng ilang mga Pinoy, ang Pokemon Go ay nasa Pilipinas na! Oo, matapos mabadtrip at pasimpleng download (na obviously ay APK) ng ilang hindi makapagpigil ay meron nang Pokemon Go na available sa ating bansa. (Well, maliban sa mga gumagamit yata ng Windows Phone.)

So ano na? Ano naman ngayon kung may Pokemon Go fever na sa Pilipinas, na sakto pa sa tag-ulan at mga nagbobombahang mga isyu sa bansa?

PlayBack: Maya's Anklet – Kung Alam Ko Lang

08/08/2016 03:32:41 PM

Definitely there is something deeper behind this music video. And we're not just talking about the music and letters here. But Maya's Anklet's “Kung Alam Ko Lang” exhibits the same alternative genre yet done in a bit different way – if you compare it to their EP years ago.

The Scene Around: 1983

07/20/2016 11:53:12 PM

The head curator of IndieManila celebrated her 33rd birthday on a party of her own, and it's called 1983, in honor of her birth year (so you don't have to do the math, right?). 

PlayBack: Autotelic – Gising (Music Video)

08/08/2016 10:57:03 AM

Pop rock band Autotelic looked like they hit the new starting chapter in their lives. Just two years ago, they had Kai Honasan as part of their lineup. The band also got recognition for being part of the top winners at the 2015 Jack Daniel's Philippines Indie Music Awards. And while on the process of making new recordings, Nemesis Music Group and MCA Music took this six-piece crew of musicians under their wing. Thus, making Autotelic part of NMG's roster of musicians and guaranteeing them more exposure in the music scene.

That speaks for a reason why I think this band as the next big thing in the music industry. 

And they are taking that one huge step when they published their first single Gising and released its music video half-a-week ago.

Playback: The Putings - Craziest Feeling

There's something interesting in this music video, or rather, this song from The Putings.

Saw the debut programs of WWE's RAW and SmackDown of the “new era.” While things are getting lagged behind due to broadcast problems (thanks, FOX!) I don't think we are far late to make a say about what's happening in the just-changed landscape of the World Wrestling Entertainment. (At least, in their storyline.)

Double Treat Thursdays

What a way to be a Filipino music fan this coming Thursday. Despite the controversy that rocked the scene earlier this week (hey, we have to move on from this, please?), there are heavyweight shits lined up for every music lover out there this coming August.

But we're not getting into the list. Let's talk about today. We have two music video launches set for tonight; and it's on your top favorite music hangouts around the Metro.

Bagong simula, ika nga, ang pagsumpa nun ni Rodrigo Duterte para maging ika-16 na pangulo ng Republika ng Pilipinas. At wala pang isang buwan mula rito ay may mga nagawa na ang administrasyong ito bago pa man humarapa ng dating alkalde ng Davao City para sa kanyang unang State of the Nation Address (SONA) nitong nakaraang Lunes.
