Pinoytuner Exclusive: Armalite (1 of 4)

PinoyTuner captures more than a few candid and serious moments with Armalite, one of the fastest-rising rock bands to emerge last 2014.
Composed of guitarist/songwriter Ocho Toleran, turtablist Biboy Garcia and vocalist Ian Tayao (of Queso fame) plus drummer Michael Gemina and Martin Hocson, ARMALITE made it's debut toward the last quarter of 2014 with their single "Halo Jump" and is currently completing material for an upcoming release this year.

I met sir 8 last night. Napaka down to earth sobra! Kasama nya di sir Reg sa Medisina (may katabi kasing studio dun sa cubao, at nadinig nila yung tugtog namin) sabi nya "kayo ba yung tumutugtog? Galing nyo ah" tho ang shit ng tugtog namin kase di pa napractice ng lead at drummer namin (at saka puyat sila kase sa finals). At umalis yung bassist namin kaya yung vocalist namin ang nag bass kaya di nya kaya yung bass parts. Sa sinabi niyang yun nainspire kami at mas pagiigihan pa namin ang practice
