Oh shiiiieeettt…for real, the amount of activity coming from all parts of Asia these past few weeks/months (and maybe forever) has been MAD hectic. We’re stoked that we can give y’all just a little taste of it (because this is a massive ass continent so we know we’re not aware of EVERYTHING that gets released).
The Philippines is coming in HOT today…
We got not one but TWO massive hardcore compilations of hardcore bands from different regions of the Philippines.
