Felix Rosales and his works

Recently, I was amazed by the stickers I saw on the streets of Lipa and I have no idea whose work are they, until Terry introduced me to his friend, Felix.

I don’t know much about Felix but this guy got some amazing stuff! Take a look at these pictures for some of his great works like stickers, shirt designs, canvas and street arts. Interesting!

Lone Wolf will you ever find your pack?

Gig Review: Freedom to Unite

After 14 hours of exhausting work, I arrived at J4 greenhut bar around 8pm.

A Mob started to gather outside the bar all excited for the show Freedom To Unite, organized by NSC, Hermit Events and Edge Productions, the show featured bands from Manila, Laguna and Batangas.

At around 9pm, Vigil started the night off with a very abrasive set consisted primarily with covers from my favorite metalcore band Lamb of God. They were followed by Hardcore Giants from Batangas 12Tons.

Towards the End's set was abruptly cut because of technical difficulties, but it didn't matter, these guys still managed to give a killer performance. They were followed by Standout from San Pablo, Laguna, and Vagrant from Batangas.

Chilidogs took the stage without Ival[Bass] and Fourth[Guitars], but Empoy of Edgepark played bass for them that night. Before the start of their set, Jepoy announced that it will be their last gig in Batangas for 2011, cause they are set to take a break cause they've been very busy for the last few months.
Still they proved that their unique sound comes in full volume. though the moment right after their last note was a touching one, no tears nor blood was shed, but fist were raised.

They were followed by my new favorite, Forfeit.
While Lipa City's band-to-beat Strength From Within kept the energy alive at an all-time maniacal.

They were followed by punkrock outfit from Manila, Disabuse. They impressed the locals with

their some covers and original materials.
But it was really LockFist who really brought the house down with an impressively tight and amazingly brutal set of originals, the entire place literally blew up in complete chaos ensued in the moshpit and spilled onto the stage, as Manila Hardcore acts Takedown and Destroy My Enemy exploded in a nonstop barrage of excellent musicianship. Next was Hardcore Heavyhitters from Batangas Failure who tore up the remnants of the crowd. Evening closers EdgePark in no way, took it easy and finished off the evening gloriously.

The Hyenas would like to salute the organizers of these show for a job well done.
