franco...hmm super band to combination ng mga ibat ibang banda combined in one. may parokya, queso ska urbandub.

parang tunog urbandub yung tugtog nila. imo

Actually, it may be the other way around, as Gab was probably influenced by Franco's original band.

Too much time on their hands and too small a brain to use it productively.

this has nothing to do with Franco but let me get this straight - YOUR idea of "good" is getting lined up in Pulp Summer Slam?

ohhhh kay.

rawk on, you rakista you

Pis tayo tol, what I meant to say was...
Kung "di sila" ayos for me "di ko sila panakinggan" nung tumugtog sila sa Summer Slam...
My point ka rin na di lahat ng magagaling nasa SS...
Ang I agree with that, nakalimutan ko yun ah...
Salamat sa paalala... :-D

They seem to like what they do. I can't blame them. Overall, I just find their sound uninspiring but that's skewed towards my sensibilities. Long story short, I think they seem to have formed in the wrong era. If this was the early 2000s, they would probably appear to be more relevant but that's just me. What do I know?

I don't know..yes they sound good, but almost all their songs sound the same and it's kinda tiring to listen to.  :| Maybe it's just me?

Okay lng nmn. They rock but medyo overrated. Yung songs kasi nila halos parehas lng ng mga groove. para sakin lang 'to. Wag po sanang masamain. They're good musicians pero cguro sa genre nila, i find it a little boring

Don't take it negatively guys, but I do have a question.

But before I discuss my question, Id like to admit that I like this band (FRANCO). The vocals/guitars guy has amazing talent, then you have the likes of stars from Urbandub, Parokya, and Queso as part of the casts. My favorite songs are actually "This Gathering" and "Song For The Suspect".

My question would be, just wondering lang po (alam ko kanya kanyang trip lang yan), why do they opt to have 3 guitars (or guitarists for that matter)? I think, IMHO, Franco Reyes and either Gabby or Paolo can already pull of the guitar tandem duties. My thoughts lang kasi if you have 3 guitars, there would have been guitar solo harmonies similar to the likes of IRON MAIDEN, Think Lizzy, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Pearl Jam, etc.

I was actually trying to learn the guitar part of the song "This Gathering" and I can say right now that Guitar II and III play exactly the same riffs, while Franco Reyes' guitar does most of the "Let Ringing" parts, correct me if I am wrong.

They would have looked meaner as a quartet if you know what I mean. Please don't hate me guys, but this is just my humble opinion.

i dont know why ... but i have 2 theories:

1.) song writing - it is very probable that each of the guitar players contribute to song writing, so eventhough they play the same parts, they still contribute other stuff to the table. maybe they should ask one of the guys there to play keyboards? hehehe...

2.) Slipknot theory - they are friends and one of them probably needs something to keep him busy... so they cant just leave him.

all in all though... i think having bands like Franco is healthy for the music scene. i hope they'd stick around much longer.

Barkada eh

haha more seriously though contrary to what you hear sometimes they do 3 different things, minsan if you listen carefully may mga ambient sounds.
hulaan mo nalang kung sino gumagawa nun. Try watching their live vids to get an idea.

Sakto yong theory mo, malamang may contribution lahat ng members sa song writing... Di ko naisip yon agad. I want them to stick around too, but hoping they'd grab and maximize the opportunity of having 3 guitars para lalong maging EPIC ang gawa nila.

Imagine Pinoy Rock na may touch of Reggae and then with solos (guitar harmonies) similar to that of Iron Maiden, whew...
