Our record has been delayed for about two (or three?) years now. I'm terribly sorry, but do know that we're still working on it. Here is a demo I made for one of the tracks in the album. #okay

[dontbogartthecanman]

The reason why we’ve been quiet for some time now is because we’re recording our still-untitled debut full-length album. Here’s a short preview of a track (Fizzy Good Make Feel Nice) that’s still being mixed. I’m sorry, I just can’t contain myself and I need to share this.

Keep coming back to this page for more info about the album and how you can help us mount this dream of ours. Lolzies.

Don't Bogart the Can... Man! - Let's Get Tired (Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin)

Hey, thanks for all the listening and reblogging our latest demo! As a token of our appreciation, here's a cover of Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin's short, but lovely track called Let's Get Tired. Originally from the vinyl release of their first album Broom and then released again this year for Tape Club, this is pretty much one of our favorite SSLYBY tracks ever.

In other news: SSLYBY is gearing up for their Japan Tour and if possible, they could make a pit stop in the Philippines as well. Show your love from Manila by liking this Facebook page and stuff.

Also: For those who want to download Bobby, Don't Die, the demo will be available along with this track by the end of the week. We're making a sort of mixtape for all our projects that isn't @thestrangeness.

Don't Bogart the Can... Man! - Bobby, Don't Die (Demo)

Hello, we're back with a new song. The new year came bearing gifts in the form of decent recording gear so we're testing the waters! Support this new sound of Bogart! Support the future of OPM! (Bianca King, 2011) In other news, I guess its safe to say that we're bound to release the "long-awaited" full length album sometime around April (or maybe May). 

This song is about friendship and missing out on all the good time. It's about #Barkadas and #ChoosingLife and #NotDeath. Oh, Bobby, #ItsMoreFunInThePhilippines. 

I'm so sorry, but it's over and done Come tomorrow morning I'll be gone Oh my god, I just want to have fun Oh my god, I just want to have fun

And when the wasted time and wasted space Are evident on my aging face I just want to get out of this place I just want to get out of this place

Goodbye, I'll be gone for a while Just simply smile And please don't die

Thinking of the times when we stayed up 'til dawn Sleeping until three with the TV turned on Oh my god, how I miss having fun Oh my god, how I miss having fun

Dancing to some shitty band on the stereo Made the same mistakes like we just didn't know I'm just going where I need to go I'm just going where I need to go

Promo for That Epic Reggae Set’s Third Album “The Great Trans-Siberian Moth Miners or 1913”

That Epic Reggae Set are prolific artists. This is their third album. They also have another album out this year filled with folk songs and field recordings.

That Epic Reggae Set will never play live. They are also the Philippines’ best kept secret and they are definitely one of my favorite local bands.

Recommended If You Love: The Olivia Tremor Control, psychedelic pop, awesome musicians making awesome music, cool people, great presentation.

You can buy the album (digital download) at Beat The Robot! Recordings, another local independent record label that I support 100%.

Also: a big thank you to Ms. Sunshine Reyes because she’s the one who introduced me to this band.

Don't Bogart The Can... Man! - Never Give Up, Never Surrender (Demo)

Hi, guys! We've been busy with a bunch of other things but now we're back and we're serious about finishing this "album" for an early 2012 release (Lol?). Anyway, here's our new demo. Like we said, we'd like to have a set of new material for the full-length.

This song is about loving someone... even if dat bitch don't love you back. In the wise words of Commander Peter Quincy Taggert from the cult TV show Galaxy Quest, "Never give up! Never surrender!"

Full lyrics for your emotions:

I will never let you go Even if you tell me so I've been through so much For me to stop now

Give me just a little time And I will make it worth your while If you won't change your mind, I'll take everything back And then you can relax

Every hour and every day You hurt me in your own special way I just wanted to make you see The good you've done for me

At least I tried But I'll never say goodbye 'Cause I still love you, anyway.

You can play me for a fool I love how you can be so cruel It's never enough Just to see you

Baby, you can run away I'm not forcing you to stay 'Cause when you're with him I can see that you're glad How can I be so mad?

Baby, if you go I won't let my feelings show I'll never give up, Just to let you know
