Greyhoundz And TypecastPresented BySirkel EnterteynmentMulti-awarded and multi-platinum selling, this Filipino metal juggernaut called Greyhoundz has redefined music, earning them a legion of loyal fans throughout the years and guaranteeing them a place in rock history as the undying upstarts of an industry that needs them around.Typecast has been called one of Asia's most influential bands, with a tradition of pushing musical boundaries and daring experimentation.TypecastSince the 2007 release of Every Moss and Cobweb, Typecast has become the unlikely vanguards of musicianship in an artistic landscape replete with fleeting trends. It has taken them years of relentless touring and considerable personal sacrifices to reach this point, all for the sake of preserving their vision. After a wearying decade of defying expectations, it is no surprise that Typecast has lapsed into an uncharacteristic silence. There comes a time when artist suffer from their own creations, and it becomes necessary to renew in order to survive. Now, after three years of introspection,Typecast has returned from their self-imposed exile with How Your Influence Betrays You their most ambitious effort to date.Recorded at Tower of Doom with the guidance of the inimitable Eric Perlas, How Your Influence Betrays You is a sprawling reflection of the long, timorous road that Typecast has traveled, harking back to their humble beginnings in Laguna while heralding the promise of the future. The first single - This Kind of Silence, combines the enthusiasm and sincerity the band has become known for while giving a glimpse of the bold new direction they have taken. The band further brings to light their evolving sophistication with the album opener, Unwilling, a melancholic and deceptively gentle meditation that reveals their exceptional musical complexity along with their ever-present desire to defy expectations. Typecasts greatest strength, however, has always lain in forging new ground while remaining true to their underground roots, and nowhere is this more apparent than in the raucous and impassioned The Truth and the menacing opus As Silent As Death, collaborations with longtime friends, Rogel Africaand Tatel Marcelino, both of seminal metal band Valley of Chrome. Showcasing the beauty in simplicity, the band also reveals newfound depth and worldliness with the existential You Will Be Alone, a stark and lonely parable that is sure to become an instant classic.
