PlayBack: Tanya Markova - Ang Darling Kong Zombie

10/11/2016 04:34:54 PM

Mukha man silang gaya ng mga sinauna nilang musika (na medyo madilim, er, dark goth pop rock na whatever), tunog bago naman dahil sa panibagong single ito ng banda na kilala natin sa pangalang Tanya Markova.

PlayBack: Autotelic - Papunta Pabalik (Album)

10/10/2016 10:18:58 PM


From making J-rock inspired pop music that turned every gig into an instant mosh pit session, Autotelic has evolved from being a heavyweight indie band to a pop-rock “iyak sayaw” musicians when they signed with the MCA Music, And just months later, things were moving to the fast lane as this six-piece squad just released their debut album under the major label – and it's called “Papunta Pabalik.”

Basically, I shouldn't been doing PPV predictions since I end up having pre-takes for the RAW-exclusive events instead of both (largely, thanks to the cable channel since they have only those stuffs available).

But anyway, since one of my smarky friends swore allegiance to satisfy my cravings for professional wrestling... okay, might as well do this shit.

Hell is coming once again, and this time it was all red and exclusive as WWE's Monday Night RAW will be staging three matches inside the pay-per-view event we all liked to call Hell in a Cell.

The Scene Around: Monster Indie Ground 2

10/11/2016 02:59:34 AM

Monster RX 93.1 is giving the country's music scene a much even stronger exposure courtesy of Indie Ground, a music program that gives several bands from the indies a chance to be heard in the metro-wide radio.

And that being said, Monster Indie Ground staged three bar tours during their anniversary month (August 2016). Yours truly managed to storm by Black Kings Bar at West Triangle in Quezon City for the second leg of the event.

The Shot

10/28/2016 11:36:28 PM

It was the shot that seeming neutralized what has been a bunch of negative hypes that surrounded the league for the past season. Imagine one crowd-favorite team has finally made it to the promised land – a bit earlier from what has been expected from them.

Ipa-Suspend Daw?!

Sa totoo lang, as much as sinusuportahan ko ang ating pangulo, hindi ako fan ng babaeng ito. Kung bakit? Obvious naman eh. Baka awayin niyo lang ako sa kung anu-anong dahilan na masasambit rito. Ayos nga sana kung usapan o debate lang eh. Kaso malala na ang pagka-adik ng marami sa mga Pinoy sa social media. Feeling nila hawak na nila sa leeg ang ibang tao – lalo na yung mga sumasalungat sa kanilang opinyon.

Aba, ayos din kayo, ano?

Sa totoo lang, hindi yata marunong magmove on ang mga tao sa Pilipinas. Nagbago na ang administrasyon, unti-unti na rin nagbabago ang mga kaganapan sa parehong pulitika at popular na kultura.

Pero ang kamalayan ng mga tao sa social media, parang tumatandang paurong e. Kahit makipagtalo ka pa na hindi na bago ang mga ito.

Wrong Book(ing)!

10/26/2016 02:25:41 AM

Well, as we we saying in my previous blog post, we thought the hype invested in this feud will be a smooth road.

That was our prejudgment until someone screwed up; and certainly it wasn't any of Goldberg, Brock Lesnar, or Paul Heyman's fault. But not even the crowd inside Target Center, either.

Who's Last?!

10/26/2016 01:49:45 AM

I should've written this post a week ago, when the hype of a returning icon just came back. Perhaps as an answer to the challenge poised by the Beast Incarnate.

PlayBack: Ely Buendia X The Itchyworms - Pariwara

10/14/2016 03:45:22 PM

Since their rise to the mainstream in the 2000s, it was highly regarded by many that The Itchyworms were the heir apparent to Ely Buendia and his band – who we all know as – The Eraserheads.

The Walking Dead Na! Eh Ano Ngayon!?

Lunes na naman. At para sa mga adik sa mga samu't sariling TV series mula sa Amerika, ito ang palabas na tinatangkilik nila; ang pinakapatok: The Walking Dead.

Isang horror drama na palabas na hinango mula sa komiks ni Robert Kirkman, na siya ring may gawa ng Outcast. Kasama ni Kirkman sa paggawa nito sila Tony Moore at Charlie Adlard. Si Frank Darabont naman ang nag-develop nito sa telebisyon.

Sa sobrang hit nito, naging isa na siya sa mga pinakatanyag na pangalan sa popular na kultura mula tauhan hanggang lugar. At maliban kasi sa drama, likas rin kasi na mahilig ang marami sa atin sa mga horror na palabas. Hindi man yung mga gaya ng multo o maligno pero at least yung hinahabol ka ng zombie.

Kaya nga pumatok ang larong Plants vs. Zombies sa atin, 'di ba?

Eh Season 7 na pala ng The Walking Dead kaninang umaga.

Eh Ano naman ngayon?

The Scene Around: Locked Down Night

10/11/2016 05:42:39 PM

It was a rainy Thursday night, and I just came off from a team meeting at The Collective. While it;s a bit bearable to travel on my way home, I decided to take a walk and check out what's happening at one of the best nightout spots in Makati City (aside from my personal agendas).

Inside The Pages: The Best In The World At What I Have No Idea

10/11/2016 03:55:36 PM

For over two-and-a-half decades, it is safe to say that Chris Jericho has become a worldwide entertainment phenomenon. And he has done it in the world of performing arts, sports, music, and even acting. A metal-head and a sports entertainer – should we rather say, wrestler – this on-screen villain has done the documentation in two books; which gives him another distinction more than just a thousand plus holds – being an author.

PlayBack: Maude - Habol

10/07/2016 02:16:54 AM

I only heard Maude live only once, and that was barely ten months ago.

And two years after releasing the 11-track Pelota Court, this pop-rock band has been rolling with that helluva music video from their single Habol.

Wala na sigurong mas nakakaloka pa kesa makita ang insidenteng ito sa Facebook kahapon. Actually, mas matindi pa siguro kung nasa Maynila ka pa siguro.
