Title: Sheila & The Insects
Post by: Amoch on October 09, 2003, 05:40:44 PM

I just acquired their 3 CDs. New Wave is Alive!!! 'Di ko tuloy malaman kung matatanda na 'tong mga ito dahil na-master nila yung genre o wala silang ibang album sa bahay kundi yung mga old records and tapes ng mga kuya (o tatay) nila.

From what I've listened from their CDs, we could deduce that their influences would surely include: The Smiths, The Cure, Echo & The Bunnymen and lots of Railway Children.

Hanep 'tong band na to. Nung nalaman ko nga na Cebu-based sila parang gusto kong pumunta ng Cebu.  Too bad, nahuli ako sa balita.
