I'll give that song and Yeng a look during my next rounds on YouTube. Out of curiosity, are groups popular at all there? I've done one or two short searches for them before, but never had much luck in the places I was looking.

Groups, you mean like bands and that sort? If so, I feel like there's a few aspiring rock bands, but the only really famous ones I know of are old-ish rock bands like Rivermaya, Parokya in Edgar, and Sponge Cola. Rivermaya's former vocalist though, Bamboo, is very famous right now, he's one of the 4 Judges of The Voice (Philippines Edition) alongside Sarah Geronimo, apl.de.ap (The Black Eyed Peas member), and Lea Salonga. He has his own band now called "Bamboo" haha There's also Aegis, known for their very high, powerful, female vocal duo, does rock/OPM songs, songs like "Luha" "Halik" and "Basang Basa sa Ulan" are VERY iconic songs.

But if you're talking about like pop groups and along those lines, I don't really think the Philippines does much of that, not to my knowledge at least.

I was mainly talking about pop/girl groups and the like (since I've only come across two), but bands are good too. Thank you for the run down. Lots of new stuff on my list now; Aegis sounds especially interesting. I had no idea about Lea Salonga being a TV judge either, I might have to look at some stuff from the show for her (even if she isn't the one singing. )

Ebichu's new PV -- rockabilly climate change craziness:

I know some people here might compare them to BABYMETAL, but this group named Party Rockets is so freaking good:


And no, they didn't start out with three members . There were just a lot of graduations in a short period of time. But they're really good though.

I think that just about any idol-metal combination is good!

The girl in sea green looks a bit like Anna Iriyama.

Tht's one of those PVs where I like the song, but more than anything, the graphics grab my attention, just because they're so fun and colorful. The opening sequence just about had me hypnotized.

I love Icona Pop.
