Greatest is Dead Ends

- first fully independent album release
-all their 3 other albums were also independently produced and released.
-they are known in undergroud scenes across the globe.
-their songs confronted the Marcos regime head on, risking their lives, they were even there during the EDSA revolution
-it was a time when rock/punk non conformist music was considered demonic, so imagine the struggle
-they didnt do catchy, pang masa songs, so for me, it means they were really into the art
-their last album mamatay sa ingay shows skilled they were, especially the late bassist Jay Dimalanta, and guess who played guitar in that album? right, Lourd de Veyra
-until now chief songwriter and vocalist Al dimalanta still plays without losing aggression in the band THROW, still truly "independent", has not sold out
-they have influenced countless kids to be inspired to form bands including a kid named RAYMOND MARASIGAN, who even mentioned them in of his songs from his side project.
- all their lyrics about the struggles of youth and politics are still very much current. they werent spoiled, rich brats and were in the thick of things during the notoriously dangerous 80s punk scene, 

So there, that's my critical analysis, Dead Ends showed both integrity and skill plus relevance. I look at bands/artists based on what their intentions are. And Al DImalanta was a poet of the streets who bravely shouted against an infamously oppresive  regime with straight uncloaked lyrics and also sang about the dysfunctions of adolescence without the usual imagery of drugged out and drunken rockers.

BOW.

The wuds - for not selling out
Eheads - for opening the flood gates
Razorback/Spy - for rocking hard

hehe, opinion ko lang naman. plus points kase ng dead ends, sila talaga first independent release, tapos hanggang ngayon tuloy pa rin sila sa THROW, kaka release lang ng STAND na album. Di sila tumigil, or Al to be specific.

Yung Wuds well, na question sila nung pinayagan nilang irecord ng Rivermaya yung Inosente..., alam mo naman maraming taas kilay sa eksena. lol

how do we gauge greatness?

number of albums? frequency of gigs?  number of major concerts? number of HIT songs (on-air)? volume of attendance? music videos? AWARDS?

we need also need to consider the timeline of success  --> if  BAND A sold millions of copies of their album in months Vs. BAND B also sold the same amount but counted decade.


can we count the underground scene?

well most of the bands mentioned're really great


if the thread is about personal answer --->

eto mga babad sa aming mumunting karaoke cassette player noong 90's (AS IN BABAD)

cassette na pinagpasapasahan
--> re-record sa double deck na player basta lumabas na sa LA105
---> naka play lang ang C-90 na tape hanggang matapos ang programa
---> then manual cropping ng kanta
---> record ulit

Mabigat yung question, parang bias IMO, marami kasi sila masyado at dumidipende sa taste ng tagapakinig.


Pero ang mga nasa puso ko is POT, JDLC, Wolfgang, kahit medyo malayo sama ko na si Dong Abay  :-D
Nakipag 69 ako and then kakatapos lang pala niyang umebs, eh hindi ko natanong sa kanya , nasabik eh, ayun pati ebs nakain ko. Hindi ko nalang sinabi sa kanya baka ma offe
