PINOYSOUND UNDERGROUND: CHICOSCI THE BAND THAT YOU LOVE, HATE, AND LOVE AGAIN

[@geekylabsph]

Thanks for pointing out some of the mistakes: *Macoy & Ariel were still part of the line-up when they released "Revelation" *The section played in "Weird time signature" is in 4/4 and not the section of the song that's in 4/6 We apologize for the errors and promise to continue to be better ❤❤❤

life is short, don't let anyone confine you to their personal beliefs or preferences, music should be celebrated and express what is in the heart of an artist

[@Diijkstra]

Respect to chicosci, meron talgang tao na sobrang dedicatred mang hate ng banda pero matignan mo playlist nila nako.. they survived the hate and tinituring ko silang isa sa mga may ambag sa OPM scene.

[@Muhammad-HarDick]

Kasalanan din kase ng chicosci kaya marami clang haters. Ang ganda ng kanta nila sa studio/recording tpos pag napanood mo cla ng live sobrang dumi parang ndi man lng nagpraktis.

ang saya balikan ng late 90s to 2000s. ung ang bagong music na aabangan mo eh kung anong bagong release na casette tape sa music store tapos maghihiraman kayo ng kaklase mo na hindi marunong magsoli. chicosci, houndz, queso, slapshock ang isa sa reason bakit ako natuto tumugtog kasama ng mga classmates ko nung high school. I admit nag stop ako makinig ng chicosci after method of breathing pero masaya ako na tinuloy nila ang pag evolve ng music nila. nagkataon lang na nakilala ko ung ibang bands na ka genre nila like taking back sunday, the used at iba pa..thanks to this post babalikan ko ulit ang mga namiss kong albums nila.

Tisoy talaga yan c Sir Miggy Chavez marami mga chicks nag hihiyawan pag tumotugtog cla parang koreano

[@oripanes0121]

Tinapos ko tong video na to. Bakit? HAHAHA 😂 Chicosci had the same energy on stage since the very first time I saw them from Summer Shebang upto now. They can still make the crowd go wild and make moshpits. And Miggy truly have a good and sexy voice kahit nagsisigaw sya. Mong Alcaraz is cool too. Yung dalawang yun ang haligi ng Chicosci. Hanggat magkasama yan kahit anong bash nyo, wala. They will prove you na we are Chicosci that you can't let us down. So ayun lang. Di naman ako masyadong fan sakto lang na love ko sila. Charot! 😅 Basta i was there time they are with Typecast and Valley of Chrome handler days. They are not my first favorite before but now the'yre number 2. Loyal ako sa Dashboard Confessional eh. So this comment may not so sensible but I what i want to say is. Let's all grow up. We are not forever young.

Thanks for watching!

Iyong araw 🤘🔥

[@PrettyLittleDitty2089]

I was so confused noong nalaman ko mula sa tropa na ung dati nilang mahal na CHICOSCIENCE eh hate na nila as CHICOSCI. tapos noong way back in college, nakakanood nako ng mga gigs nila. Most notably noong nag-bday celebrate ako sa isang big event featuring Chicosci & other bands. at that time, na-buking ko na may something between my gf (ex now) & my college buddy, buti nakita ako noong isa sa mga tropa kong Band crew ng isang sikat na banda. naisama ako sa backstage kasama ng maraming banda at chicosci. napa-inom kami dahil maraming stocks sa backstage tapos birthday din ni Calde at para akong kuya na nagsusumbong sa kanila. pinainom nila ako. so imbes na mag-mukmok eh nalasing kami sa sobrang saya. These are bunch of wacky guys specially si Miggy (lalo na pag lasing). haha! Good times!

[@geekylabsph]

Core memory for sure! Fun times.

[@arnedumandan1654]

more reviews pls sa OPM scene., awesome ang presentation ninyo. Salamat.

[@geekylabsph]

Thanks!

[@pritzmichael]

The first song I've heard from them was A Promise and I've been a fan since then. I even bought a few albums. I didnt mind their musical changes, i liked them all the same.

[@tcidebungosky9554]

Personally, I loved their album Icarus (Method of Breathing may be second fave) and I think it’s their best craft. Amazed ako paano na labas and produce nila Raymond and Buddy sa kanila and sound nila sa Icarus so nabilib ako. That album sounds post-hardcore-ish or mathcore-ish and it’s a very unique, heavy and original kasi wala ka talaga maririnig na ganun style at all especially sa opm metal/hardcore scene. I just hope they maintained that sound kasi it just set them completely apart and evolved from the mainstream genre that time which is nu-metal, their first genre (never liked their first one). Yung time na hindi ko na sila na tripan nun is nung binago nila sound nila sa Vampire social club, naging mainstream emo rock band sila which is hindi ko masyado trip. Anyways, nakita naman potential nila and I think ung mga bagong singles nila are better naman from the “vampire” era and I hope unti-unti bumalik ung creative exploration nila nung sa Icarus/MoB era. Despite their changing styles, this band is still a one in a million band in the OPM alternative scene.

[@SakalBibe88]

Kudos kay Sir Raimund Marasigan for letting them to be them. Mapa Nu metal, melodic hardcore or vampire emo social club pa yan. Chicosci is one of those bands that made my younger years awesome.

[@geekylabsph]

True. Mahilig din kasi mag experiment si Raimund

[@supersonicph]

Goods nman yan, kahit puro chorus lng alam ko sa mga kanta ng chikoski.

[@Rain-fe2mm]

Galing idol. Hnd ko din maintndhan bkt hate ng iba ung pg explore ng chicosci s ibang sounds. Npaka versatile Nilang band Lalo n pg panoorin m sila live. Matugtog nla hits nla from first album.

[@theraile]

I'm not a die hard fan nor hater, pero may mga favorite tracks ako sa 1st and 2nd album, after nun wala na, dun na din ako nag stop makinig sa Chico nuon. Though fan ako ni Victor Gusion, pero for Chico ndi talaga. For me, 2 major factor tlga kung bakit marami silang hater ay dahil sa change of style/genre at yung boses ni Miggy, dahil madalas off note. Pero si Zack Lucero ba ung narrator?

[@geekylabsph]

Good point! How I wish ako si Zach lol

[@coldcoldheart2424]

First time ko sila narinig sa myx, Black Roses na inlove ako sa boses ni Miggy at looks nya kakaiba pati aesthetic ng video..galing parang tunog american..

[@besprentv]

Basta pogi kahit hindi singer, patok sa pinoy. Parehas sa showbiz, basta good looking pinapasayaw sa stage kahit hindi dancer, pinapakanta kahit hindi singer. Mga pinoy hiyawan parin kasi nga mas importante ang looks sa talent. Facts.

[@OliveLo-Fi]

Galing ng bird. grabe. I've seen them once and I was blown away. Shoegaze!!

[@geekylabsph]

True! A breath of fresh air kasi opposite sa tunog ng banda ni Eco (Jejaview,Chicosci) na parehong maingay.

[@pollyannaleaves213]

I've been following this band since the late 90's pinapanood pa namin sila ng mga college friends ko sa Mayrics during their 'Giant Robot' era. Yung 'Method' album for someone like me at that time na nakikinig rin ng Glassjaw, Boy Sets Fire and other Victory Records hardcore bands, ay obviously dun nila kinuha ang tunog ng 'Method' album. Kung di ka talaga familiar sa mga binaggit kong banda iisipin mo talaga na napaka original ng sound nila sa album na yun. Sadly, marami ring tulad ko na nakikinig ng mga bandang di sikat sa pinas pero sikat abroad kaya di makakalusot yung panggagaya ng tunog ng Chicosci. Thanks to Nizzle Dazzle, sa Recto, yun ang music source namin noong late 90's to early 00's kaya updated kami kung anong usong music sa US lol. Yung 'Icarus' naman isa pang obvious na pinagkopyahan nila ng tunog ay yung bandang AFI, mapapansin mo yun kung nakikinig ka na ng AFI during the time na lumabas yung 'Icarus'.

Hmmm… tingin ko may point naman yung mga haters/old fans. tingin ko ang naging issue ay yung indentity nila as a band. If you want change, the change should be within and not influenced by outside musical factors. Ang the best example dyan ay silverchair, they changed but created something original. Ginawa kase ng chicosi, from one genre of mainstream music to another genre.

[@geekylabsph]

Good point!

[@NLIFE1234]

Agree

[@rodwaltercaingles6625]

SUPER YES! Silverchair. Very, very good example. They aged like fine wine from Frogstomp to Freakshow to Neon Ballroom to Diorama and so on... Not a die-hard fan of Silverchair though Diorama is one the best albums of the early 2000s. You nailed this!

Nag start talaga yung mga nabwiset yung iba sa Chico nung nilabas nila yung self titled album. Compared to first 3 albums, biglang naging melodic at sumabay talaga sa mainstream during that time but you can't blame an artist kung gusto nilang lumihis at gumawa ng bago. Yung last album nga nila na This Is Not A Chicosci Record was also a solid one. Tracks like Crocodile Scars, Secret Weapon, Alexandra etc. Will always be a fan of this band.
