About Me

Apart from the subject matter of "Ghost Along The Mississippi", I love to DRINK ALOT every weekend...booze damnit! And everyday, I listen to my first love--metal music. To all metal bands out there: PLEASE CONTINUE TO MAKE THE BEST MUSIC. But, I also would like to show my respect to non-metal artists like Barbie Almalbis, Radioactive Sago Project and Sugarfree. They're the only Filipino artists that I listen to. They make great music period. I also would like to say that SOMETHING IS REALLY WRONG WITH THE CURRENT PHILIPPINE MUSIC INDUSTRY. They keep on signing SOUR PUSSY bands like Sponge Cola (the biggest MISTAKE OF THE PHILIPPINE MUSIC INDUSTRY), Callalily, Rocksteddy (sorry Christian. you're still my cousin but your band sucks), etc etc... Again, SPONGE COLA IS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE OF THE PHILIPPINE MUSIC INDUSTRY. So much for angst..now for peace and happiness, check out Porcupine Tree's latest, Fear of A Blank Planet. Click the video below and I hope that this will not trigger any copyright issues and shit:
