A special entry
This is a music review
About Sponge Cola's 3rd album
Entitled: "Sponge Cola"
I bought my copy
At SM City Sta. Mesa
Yesterday, September 20
It was 320Php
The Album contained 14 tracks
I'll enumerate it in order
-Ayt! (T)
-Puso (T)
-Step Back (E)
-'Di Na Mababawi (T)
-In Another Life (E)
-G.K.T. (T)
-A Tear (E)
-All The Time (E)
-Wala Kang Katulad (T)
-Makapiling Ka (T)
-Lights (E)
-Meteor Shower (T)
-Saturn (E)
-Keep The Fire Burning (E)
(Legend:
T- Contains Tagalog Lyrics
E- Contains English Lyrics)
All are new and original
Except "A Tear" and "Saturn"
The 2 tracks are included in their Indie Album
But of course
They made some new "twist" in the song
-Ayt!-
The song talks about
A person in morning
That's the literal meaning
But the deeper meaning
In my interpretations
They are like a friend
That saying:
"There's hope waiting for you my friend"
The combo of instruments is also great
The part
"Konting bilis, kami ay naghihintay"
It is a great LSS for your mind
4 of 5 stars
-Puso-
Theme of the UAAP '08
Also like from a friend
Never quit
Very simple
The part "Dehado kung dehado"
Was very catchy
4 of 5 stars
-Step Back-
My personal favorite
The sound wasn't too loud or "metal"
A little bit sentimental (as they call it)
There is a part when
The only sound you can hear
Is the vocalist's voice
It was a great effect and the meaning of the phrase
Is too great
5 of 5 stars
-'Di Na Mababawi-
A silent song
The meaning is not too hard to figure out
I think an acoustic guitar is used in this track
Simple
Somehow
I can relate to it
4 of 5 stars
-In Another Life-
Just like Chris' songs
Jillian and Myself In You
This talks about a love one
The story is like
"My life is sacrificed even for you"
That's just my interpretation
4 of 5 stars
-G.K.T.-
Gising-Kain-Tulog
A song saying that GKT
Is a secret
That has an advantage and disadvantage
Together with Jomal Limao
If I'm not mistaken
He's from Kamikazee
But I'm not sure
The song's great
4 of 5 stars
-A Tear-
Aside from the better sound quality
You'll see the difference
To be honest
I like the older version
The older contains more rock actions
But the thing that I like most in the new version
They used
"Screamo"?
I'm not sure about the term
But it's a shout
It is located after the part:
"Why won't we come back"
It's great
Very great
5 of 5 stars
-All The Time-
They used a filter for the voice
That's why it is somehow difficult
To understand
It's the shortest in the album
3 of 5 stars
-Wala Kang Katulad-
This song
I don't if it is only me
But I think I've already heard the tune
The meaning's great
4 of 5 stars
-Makapiling Ka-
This song is a little bit sentimental
I think this song is humble
The one saying this seems eager
To be with the one he/she loves
Too much devotion
But the song is great
5 of 5 stars
-Lights-
A track that says
At the end of the darkness, there's light
The lyrics is positive
It give light
I mean
Hope for the listener
5 of 5 stars
-Meteor Shower-
The title's written in English
But the song is Tagalog
So tricky
They used the Meteor Shower
As a substitute for the exact meaning of the song
Still
It is tricky
They put descriptions about Meteor Shower
Which gives the lyrics a great meaning
4 of 5 stars
-Saturn-
They rearranged the song
Making the 2 verses
One after the other
And they used hi-hats too much
It's great
I liked it like the older version
They didn't used guitars at first
Or if they used it and I didn't realize it
Too minimal
LSS
5 of 5 stars
-Keep The Fire Burning-
The last song
And the longest one
The song says about
There's no such thing as end
They also used piano
As a major instrument used in the song
The melody is good
4 of 5 stars
That's the summary of the tracks
Now let's get to the album's physical characteristics
The case isn't too good
Since they only used
I think a cardboard
Instead of using CD Hard Plastic Case
Just like other album's
The album's front
Is simple
Sponge Cola
Represents the artist and the album's title
Is written in the center
And there's a big red circle
With 3 white spots scattered around it
In my interpretation
The circle represents the Saturn
And the white spot represents lights
And lights that will represent
Never ending fire
The back cover is an art
There's an image of the members
But stenciled
In the upper-right corner
There is the location of the song listing
And it has a very small font
The inside part
There's a large folded paper
Contains Pictures, Song Title and line from the song
The CD is simple also
It just like the circle in the cover
With "SC" in the lower-left portion
The only thing that I didn't like in this
Unlike the 1st 2 albums
They didn't include a sheet of paper
Containing the lyrics
So it is too difficult to sing along
I think I already said everything
Thanks for reading
Have a nice day
"Still I'm drawn to the flame and the feelings remain but the fire for the night, now a long lost memory."
