next show for asterisk: krupskaya tour

up is the poster for the next show co-organized by non-compliant issue, flowergrave and * collective, a year-ender party for diypinoyhcpunk.com feat. the wonderful UK grindcore act krupskaya. it's a big honor and privilege for us to be able to join these guys in setting up a show, as we've only been a bunch of random kids that went to shows back then, and we somehow look up to these dudes that have been organizing hardcore/punk shows ever since we were babies (haha). hope we don't disappoint.

second show!

here is it guys, after a long break from blogging am back to present to you *collective's ALARME, a show we've set-up for our good friends caitlyn bailey from davao, and van gogh's ear from cebu (as i have heard that the spirals and bombo pluto ova will not be able to make it) for their luzon tour. this will also mark the first show that will include the youngins yuhis cruelty in the lineup among other great friends like T.E.T.E. and a hiphop band that has no name yet. (p.s. curse/gift being another one to watch out for) :D

i am very much excited for this show, and i hope to see you guys there. cheerios!

The Get-Up Kids - Red Letter Story

hello you. this is the first upload since i started to bring back my decaying blog to life... and so without further adieu here i present the get-up kids with the EP "Red Letter Story". not much to say about this one since i think you are quite acquainted already with this band and their story (or not, so refer here to wiki for an introduction). all i can say about this record is that it this is where they started using the piano as part of their band, and the transition from their earlier records to the later ones. i am not much a big big big fan of their sound but id like to think im pretty appreciative of them. got this cd from a good friend who was disposing some of his stuff (naunahan ako sa braid! yun lang) so i consider myself somehow lucky to get a hold of this one. shout-outs to him and his awesome post-rock band that's doing a cebu tour as of the moment. as to everyone, do try this piece of indie emo/pop punk and have fun with yer weekend. enjoy!
