Sentimental and sunshiny is a challenging combination to pull off, but Ang Bandang Shirley’s “Polygonal Graphs” has managed just fine. Clear, ringing guitar chords stroll through big-hearted melodies and C86 moments; the mood of wistful romance, a feel-good tickle completely bereft of cheap sentimentality and gimmicks. Credit Selena Galang for taking over the spotlight this time. The ‘60s-rooted pop jangle and Sarah Records-referencing breeziness of the track were the core appeal of Selena’s former and current side projects, Candyaudioline and Slow Hello, in which she tailors soaked and sugared to Shirley’s deceptively simple pop-rock dynamics, smoothly as though cool air is rustling through and ready to take you to its wings.

“Polygonal Graphs” is included on Ang Bandang Shirley’s latest album, Tama Na Ang Drama, which you can purchase at Fully Booked Bonifacio High Street and online: on iTunes and on http://wideeyedrecordsmanilashop.bigcartel.com/. It’s also part of Erasing Memories, a free online compilation curated by Vandals On The Wall and SEA Indie. You can download the mixtape here: http://vandalsonthewall.com/erasingmemoriesmixtape/

I Guess It’s Not Too Late - Sped up (Noa Mal)

you
i saw your face in june
you didn't have a clue of my infatuation

clues that i gave out to you
you took my bait it seemed so easy
you've made it very easy

did i ever expect to get out of my recent wreck?
will we ever expect to get out of our recent wreck?

i did not expect a response
from a girl of distance and 
an obedience to my affectations

did you ever expect to get out of your recent wreck?
will we ever expect to get out of our recent wreck?

please, tell me about your day.

CHOP-CHOP BLUES

I.
Oh I remember clearly, blood-red sky
Drenched in rain, and an overwhelming craving
You played unfairly, in your guise                      
Sleight of hand, so now you’re paying

(Chorus)
I know, I know, I know
That you like your games twisted

I know, I know, I know
That you like to make their hearts bleed

I know, I know, I know
That you like to hunt for your prey

So now, I’m---
Doing the same


 II.                             
Just groove to my records, now don't defy
Soon I'll release you,  from the sack in my trunk
Honey, we will play, a little game
A little game of chop chop
Where I'll dissect you, and you'll love it too

(Chorus)

III.
Do you want to do it slowly?
Do you want to do it quickly?
Do you want to do it slowly?
Do you want to do it quickly?

(Chorus)

 (Harmonica solo)

IV.
Baby I will skin you, under the chin
From ear to ear, your face like a souvenir
This way, you’re always with me
Just like you said, 

Cause you’ll be under my ground
And you can’t runaway from me...

Chop-Chop Blues

Spinal Crack

All the tracks in this ep were written when I was still in highschool. Writing music was one of the ways for me to cope with expressing my mental and emotional struggles, so these tracks are close to my heart. I hope people who may relate, have went through, or are still going through something similar would enjoy them.
