The Scene Around: Pug At First Sight (2015)

01/25/2017 08:41:27 PM

Here's a piece of rewind 2016 for you, guys. No, we'll not gonna tackle those political crappy stuff here (hey, we all want to move forward on that aspect, right?). I know, while I personally geared up to the next level, I admit that blogging has far left behind. So that being said, let's take a bit of lookback to what the past year has offered to us.

The Rundown Slam: WWE Royal Rumble 2017

It's funny how the WWE claimed this edition of Royal Rumble as the biggest rumble of them all. Why? Is it because of the fact that they are celebrating three decades of success off a Robert Patterson's idea? Is it because of the return of the RR to the Alamo City?

The Rundown Slam: NXT Take Over San Antonio

03/27/2017 10:28:39 PM

I know, it might be six weeks to two months late from posting this. And I really had a hard time coping up with what's happening at the wrestling world. 

But so, since WrestleMania week is just around the corner, maybe this could be at least a good time to fit into the showcase by having short takes on whatever PPV happened on this edition of road to the Ultimate Thrill Ride. Let's kick things off with NXT's pre-Royal Rumble special, shall we?

PlayBack: Sud – Show Me

I might be bias on doing this stuff right now. Well, don't get me wrong; while Sila can be considered a “so mainstream” thing, hearing their other tracks proved they have a lot more in store to offer. Now only if you give them a listen to their ultimate-slowdown tracks “Safer” and “Smilky,” the seducing “Make U Say,” and straightforward uptempo “Profanities.” This one, though, is my favorite out of their 8-track thingamajig.

PlayBack: Jensen and The Flips – BDYTLK

Is there any sort of difference to the what Jensen and The Flips are currently offering?

The Scene Around: Super Shadow Moses Turbo Launch

03/22/2017 08:06:51 AM

It was a Saturday night that served as the final third of a week/weekend packed of launches. While we have seen a some of our favorite bands launched their respective music videos, as well as a punk rock band and a hip-hop quartet doing their respective album launches in one night, someone up north was up for a party in a similar cause.

And that's the nerdcore rap trio Shadow Moses who just launched their geekery-inspired Super16 track album called Super Shadow Moses Turbo.

The Scene Around: A Gig Has No Name s01 e01

03/21/2017 08:02:28 AM 

When they announced it way back then, I can already sense that this could be another big thing to take notice on a weeknight gig. Red Ninja Production and Support Your Local Indie Scene promises a set of awesome gigs this 2017. And this, happened almost two months ago, proved they can really do so. 

Indi(e) Deserved Ang Price?!

03/18/2017 01:40:48 PM

Sa mga nangyari nitong nakalipas na linggo, mukhang ito lang yata ang mas napakaintersadong pag-usapan: ang pag-anunsyo ng isang major label ukol sa isang music event na gaganapin sa Mall of Asia sa darating na Mayo 2017 na kinatatampukan ng mga banda na hinangaan sa independent music scene nitong nakalipas na mga taon at sa kasalukuyan.

Mukhang interesadong paglaanan ng kuro-kuro dahil sa halos hati rin ang reaksyon ng madla, mula sa presyo ng ticket (na umaabot sa tumataginting na apat na libong piso) hanggang sa pag-kuwestiyon sa adhikain ng MCA Music na layon ipagbigkis ang mga musikero ng bansa.

PlayBack: Carousel Casualties - Flats

03/15/2017 08:09:27 AM

Say, nine months could actually spell a whole lot of difference. I remember hearing Carousel Casualties as a plain spectator (well, I still am now) on a random WAT UP gig last June and they actually sound different way back then. Probably the changes in lineup had taken effect for real.

Sa panahon na mas naglalabasan ang mga pinakamaaangas na smartphone – as in mas nagiging astig sila, o sopistikado na ang mga feature nila, mga lumelevel-up na ang mga specs, may iisang telepono na tula naghuhudyat ng pagbabalik sa industrya ng mga telepono.

The Scene Around: TheSunManager "Worth" Album Launch

03/10/2017 10:23:34 PM

It was probably a long wait until the dream formally became a reality. Three years after releasing an EP, April Hernandez and her solo project band released an 8-track record held Friday 10 February 2017, at Route 196 in Katipunan Avenue Extension, Quezon City.

The Rundown Slam: PWR Path Of Gold 2017

03/07/2017 10:08:53 PM

Looks like after two shows, Philippine wrestling is at least back into their mold, to where they last left off. And it wasn't just a new chapter that unfolded recently; they looked like they're back on track and will be rolling non-stop with new faces and thrills showcased two Sundays ago at the Philippine Wrestling Revolution's latest event Path Of Gold.

The Rundown Slam: Wrestle Kingdom 11

02/26/2017 10:31:29 AM

This year was the only time I managed to watch Wrestle Kingdom for the first time. Somewhat to review it from what I usually do and at the same time compare it to the ones I have seen from what the World Wrestling Entertainment might be quite unfair to do so. 

Magkaisa o Pinagkaisahan?

Noong nakaraang Sabao, ito ang gumulantang sa mga blalita noong araw ng EDSA people power revolution. Isang mala-conspiracy theory na kkonmporntasyon sa pagitan ng batikang mang-aawit na si Jim Paredes at ang ilang miyembro ng grupo na tinatawag na Duterte Youth.

Mainit ang mga kaganapan na siguro kung marami lamang ang grupo sa kabilang koponan ay baka naging riot na ang isang selebrasyon ng araw na ito. Pero sa social media, halos kaliwa't kanan na ang pagtira ng mga tao kay Paredes dahil sa inasal niya na nakunan sa live video ng isang reporter na nagko-cover nun.

Two Smackin' Raw Talks

03/02/2017 08:09:54 AM

Just when we thought disappointments will be ruling the road to WrestleMania, wrestling fans have seen at least few sets of turmoils on the works. And two of them are about to reach their boiling point.
