Ironwulf.net Ver 6: En Route - Philippines, Travel, Photography

I miss a lot of things lately. It’s been raining every night for a week now and the afternoon gloomy weather just clicked the sentimental fool in me. Yes, I do miss a lot of things. But so much have been changing that you just have to move on and accept things will never be the same.

Dishwalla. What I like about Dishwalla is they are never “Sold Out”. They have dished out more than 3 albums now which are rather a “hit and miss” for me. Their 1st album “Pet your friends” is a true gem and where they got popular with their “Counting blue cars”, but I liked their faster songs there like “Moisture” and “Charlie Brown’s Parents”. Their next two albums have a few selected hits, then they had trouble with their producers and went back to being independent. Then they released their critically acclaimed “Opaline” which they produced independently. I think “Opaline” is their best album, or better yet the best album around that a lot of people haven’t heard, especially here in the Philippines, since it never reached our shores. Though thanks to my Sis in the US I managed to get a copy of their album and am really proud owner.

Song: Soul Searching

Album: Influence
Say a prayer for me
I need a new life
I’m not blind cuz I see the truth and the lies.
Heed my words
Listen to advice
You don’t need to run away and take your life.
No, can’t live this way…
So you go for miles and miles
And miles and miles and miles
Destination nowhere
No means or how,

I find myself listening to a lot of OPM lately and it’s a good thing really. I think the local scene is doing very well right now even if there are those annoying remakes around. What is also good is that the age of Boy Bands seems to have dissipated and the band scene is very alive again. I think we have to thank the acoustic revolution here, and now bands are going back and slowly incorporating the electric sound with it. Just to mention some artist filling my auditory perceptions right now are Kjwan, Kitchi Nadal, 6 Cycle Mind, Cambio, Bamboo, Session Road and Stonefree.

I was walking off to my Part time Job yesterday and a cool concept hit me for a new layout for this Blog/ Site. Well it’s been almost a year now and I think a new look would do it good. Just how my perspective of things in life and events had a radical change lately. Hehehe. Expect it soon as this blog hits Year 1 by November.

I got this song playing over and over.

Song: This is your LIfe
Artist: Switchfoot

Song : Kung OK lng Sayo
Artist : True Faith
‘Di malaman kung ano ang gagawin
Sa damdamin na ‘di ko maamin
Sa sarili
Kung bakit ka pa ba nandiyan
Sabi-sabi ng mga kaibigan ko
Huwag mong pilitin ang ‘di para sa ‘yo
Ngunit bakit hindi kita malimutan
Sa ‘yo ba’y OK lang
CHORUS
Habang tumatagal, lumalala, laging nagwawala
Tumitindi, umiinit, sumasakit ang dibdib
Kaya ako’y [...]
