I don't get it. Are there actually Philippino new wave bands?

[djcraig]

Of course there are. Haven't you ever heard of "Halili's Without Hats" and their big hit, "Tubig In Japan"?

You can only imagine. The height of New Wave popularity here is between early 80's to late '90s. Although our local NW radio stations are already playing NW stuff by the end of the '70s and it spawned many amateur NW bands.

Of couse we couldnt break the international market. Identity Crisis is rumoured to have submitted demos to Rough Trade but was apparently rejected. [:(]

Here are some of our New Wave bands.

Nursery Rhymes
Mere Mercy
Runaway Boys
The Dawn (most popular)
Identity Crisis (the best)Temper Of Times
Prycs
Violent Playground
Under Blue Skies
Ethnic Faces
Introvoys
Deans December
Athena's Curse
The Sequel
Happy Shrimps
The Thought
Animo
Third Light


and my own band The Faint Echoes [:D]

catchy names eh?

Hope i can upload some songs.
