My name is Joshua and I play guitar and do vocals for a d-beat band called Digma. Jessicka plays bass and Carlo plays the drums. We're a band made up entirely of American born Filipinos and our lyrics and aesthetics focus on anti-imperialist politics and struggles of national liberation. We claim some influence from American and Japanese bands, but we've been told that we have a sound more akin to Swedish crust and d-beat. We still have yet to set up our Myspace profile, but we do have a few videos on youtube as well as a Facebook page. Please let us know what you think. (lyrics are posted on the youtube video descriptions) Gotta say that I'm proud to claim, even in my own small way, I'm part of the global Pinoy DIY scene. We have so many great bands and I look forward to getting to know more about everyone that posts here! A big shout out to all the vegan straight edge kids on here too! BTW, my skills in any Filipino language are non-existent, so I'm not against anyone sending me messages in Tagalog or any other language, (I'm still in the process of learning!) but it will take a while for me to get back to you while I translate
