“Five group of guys that hasn't been de-flowered..."

Nice, 6CycleMind has a new album (again)..but wait...with different band members??? and...a new name?!?!? Oh hold on...this is a different band called Callalily. Mah bad.. So who the fuck is this Calalilly band?? Sila ay isang banda tinae nanaman ng mga record companies para lang i-halo sa mga nagsusulputang mga pogi-bands sa pinas.... (groan)....The Philippines has atleast 7,000 islands with a population of about.....a BILLION people...you would think record companies would find a descent sounding band to sign. But nope. They refuse to look for a good band but instead play it safe with a band that's a doppelganger of a another band. Ok let me check their website for more info..... Five guys... you think they would conjure up a name that sounds more manly. But nope they named themselves after a flower!!! Fuckin douchebags.
.... (bzzzzz)
...... (boop beep boop boop boooppp)
.......... (rrrinnnnggg)
............ (silence....)
................. (kkkzzzrrs)
............ (zzzkkkewee)
........ (kkrrrrrssss)
............. (beeeepppp bbboooppppp)
......... (sshkkreeeeeeeeee)
........... (damn dial-up connection)

....AND this is what i found!! I can't believe this shit: "The band is composed of five young, goodlooking and talented college students Kean Cipriano, 18 on vocals; Aaron Paul Ricafrente, 19 on bass; Tatsi Jamnaque, 18 on guitars; Alden Acosta, 17 on guitars and Lemuel Belaro, 19 on drums..." Wow. that shit just made me laugh!!! Five young, goodlooking and (un)talented musicians. Are you fucking serious??? Is this an ad for a dating service??? It just blows my mind how a record company would start off describing a band on how aesthetically pleasing they are to look at.... Who the fuck cares if your goodlooking. But can you fucking play and make music you sons of bitches??? Apparently not, since you just sound like the rest of those pogi rock bands. It's unbelievable how the vocalist sounds so much like the guy from that band 6InchSpinCycleBrain, down to the tone and the delivery.

Callalily (or Zantedeschia) - herbaceous perennial plants growing to 1-2.5 m tall with leaves 15-45 cm long. The inflorescence is a showy white, yellow or pink spathe shaped like a funnel with a yellow, central, finger-like spadix.

Need I say more??? I bet these retards probably had a different name when they started but ended up being their agent's pleasure holes that theyre willing to give up their band name just so they can release an album not even worth listening to. What a bunch of fuck-tards. And as I'm listening to the album while I'm writing this "review", it's apparent that everything was borrowed from the said band, down to their instruments i think. The songs, the music, the guitar sound.... sounds exactly alike. Exept the songs are LESS catchy. "Stars" their lead single sounds like a blatant rip-off of "Sandalan". The next song "Pasan" sounds like....hold on, why must every OPM album have a song about being THAT FRIEND that can take their problems away. Rivermaya has "Elesi", PNE has "Magic Spaceship", Imago has "Sundo" and even Dice & K9 has "Best Friends". What ever happened to deep meaningful socio-relevant lyrics? Yano, in my opinion weren't technical musicians, but their lyrics atlest tounched on issues that was relevant during that era. Can't these lame-ass bands talk about something else other than their usual fag-boy-loves-girl-but-girl-went-to-fuck-some-other-guy-with-a-corvette cliched love songs?? I know love is a universal subject blah blah but there has to be some other way to approach it.

Anyways Callalily's debut album is .... AHH who the fuck cares! All the songs in this album sounds like every song that is being played on the goddamn radio right now. I wonder if they even wrote their songs or even if it was them that played the instruments in this album. Coz this album sounds like they are doing a Cueshe/Hale/6CycleMind tribute album. Pang-masa music with the cliched lyrics that katulongs go crazy for.This album doesn't have an inch of their own identity. It's pre-made and pre-packaged music for SIMPLETONS. Yes, I said it. People who listen to this crap are SIMPLETONS. And I predict, that their 2nd album (if they're even going to make one) wont even make a shit stain on the charts. Hello did anyone even buy Cueshe's new album??? Oh what was that? You didn't even know that they released one huh? Thought so....

In hindsight, is this what the so-called 2nd wave of pinoy rock invasion has to offer??? Another fucking pogi band with no clue that they're bringing down the quality and essence of OPM rock. Where is the 'OPM' in this album? And more importantly nasaan na ang 'ROCK'??? If you take out the distortion from those guitars they'll just sound like the typical acoustic band with their cheesy love songs. But I do kinda feel bad for talking so much shit about a band that never heard what real rock music is. But hey, this IS the internet and this IS my blog. So if their music stinks more than their shit does, then it deserves to be talked shit by tae talker.

Words of wisdom for Callalily:
Stay in school kiddos, coz for damn sure the music that you guys are making is not worth JACKSHIT.
