Review: Lipslide 'XXIV LIV' CD.



Lipslide is an Filipino hardcore punk band based in Dubai, UAE. From what I heard they had a pretty strong scene there but I think the members are back in the Philippines. This is their debut record (they have contributed a couple of songs in the Pilipinas Thrash tape)and it has nine (9) tracks including the infamous 'Bro Hymn' by Pennywise dedicated to an awesome friend, Peter of Davao. The quality of the recording is good and the lyrics has an all around positive vibe to it and one about skateboarding. Nice. This is packaged in a nice digipack format and got it at the recent zine convention.

Lipslide will be doing a one-off show somewhere in Malolos City in two weeks time. Watch out for details for that one and make sure to be there as it will be the only time you'll be able to do so.

Sports Sunday: Choose what to watch - Pacquiao vs. Mosley, Celtics vs. Heat (Beat LBJ and the rest of those ***holes, baseball (Buccholz and the pen shut down the Twins earlier) and Memphis topped OKC. Big day.

PS. Fck the rain last night. Almost ruined practice night. Got to finish the last two songs for the upcoming BS full-length though, so I'm psyched.
