Who's Franco?
« on: May 04, 2009, 06:59:32 PM »
The band consists of:
-Gabby & John of Urbandub on guitars & drums
-8 Toleran of Quezo on guitars
-Buwi of Parokya ni Edgar on bass
-Franco Reyes of Inyo on guitars & vocals

I love this band!:-) If you haven't heard them yet, here are a few of their songs:

Is there an album out yet or is the band only doing live shows for now?

Album's not out yet but they already finished recording all the tracks from what I heard, so album will be out this year most likely. Can't wait to grab my copy. :-D

I think Frank talaga ata original name ng band niya (may nakikita din ako minsan sa Youtube InYo name nila) and sa NU din ang pag-introduce sa kanila Frank din. Si Franco Reyes din ang lead vox & guitars, di ko kilala yung ibang members nya. Yup, astig nga mga songs nitong banda na to. Galing ata silang Cebu tapos naag-punta ng US si Franco Reyes then bumalik ng Pinas (not sure about this ha). Nakakuha ako ng mp3's dun sa multiply site ni Gabby Alipe.

The same guy.. his band that time was FRANK!, He went to the US to venture and also continued to make music on his own and eventually with his US band INYO (the songs Song for the Suspect, Touch The sky are INYO music).

Totoong parang me touch ng dub ang music niya.. It's because Franco Reyes IS one of Gabby Alipe's heroes in the local ground scene here in Cebu. So, it's the other way around --- Dub is somehow influenced by Frank!.

Frequent yung uwi niya sa Pinas and laging me tugtugan pag umuuwi siya... Yan lagi sila mga kasama niya when he has gigs in Manila at pagdating naman dito sa Cebu, balik FRANK! na naman.

I hope that clarifies things.  :-D

'to na nga!
si Franco Reyes, alam ko dati, barkada sya nung barkada ko na taga TALISAY CEBU (Arnel *ASTARUS* - left handed guitarist)na naging gitarista namin (DEATH METAL) nung nasa cebu pa ako at naging gitarista pa nga ata ni Franco sa banda n'yang FRANK sa CEBU, sayang nga at di ako naka jam kahit sa inoman lang! correct me if im wrong, ang pagkakaalam ko Alice in chains ang gusto nilang tugtugan dati at napakaHUMBLE daw n'tong taong to! payter kaayo imong mga kanta do!

I myself don’t listen some of "mainstream" bands/artist, but it doesn’t mean that I hate them. As a matter of fact, I respect them.
There is some music that I really don’t like (emo/screamo), but then again I don’t hate them, I simply don’t like them.
