Profile:

The Triplehorns is 3-piece band formed on mid 2010, highly influenced by pop punk, punk rock music from America, U.K and from our own of course (Alkaline Trio, Misfits, Sex Pistols, Bouncing Souls, Bad Religion, Dead Kennedys, Tiger Army, Social Distortion, Philippine Violators, The Wuds, Bad Omen, The Addicts, Cockney Rejects, Rancid, Streetlight Manifesto). The 3 started in a 5 piece college band which eventually disbanded and 3 years after, 3 members from the former group decided to build a new band and make new music. It was a crazy mix up:

Jan Echano being the former drummer became the lead vocalist and bassist
Jamie Castro, former lead vocalist became the drummer
Bryan Mangabang, former rhythm guitarist now the lead+rhythm guitarist

     In the beginning it was just pure fun and as time goes by, they realized this isn’t just for enjoyment but it is passion to music that they strive hard to be better and responsible musicians. They simply want their music and thoughts to spread, be heard and awaken people on what really is happening around us rather than be famous and earn money out of music. They even quoted, “Kung gusto nyong sumikat at yumaman, mag show band kayo o kaya naman mag dance crew at sumali sa Show Time.” They would rather stay as Brand X, simple yet real, brave yet responsible.

     Currently, the band’s first Demo Album “Herbal Tae” has been released last May, 2011 with 4 original songs Nowhere, Change, Alone in Pairs, and their first single TAE (yes, you read that right!) You can listen to these songs on their official band page or just ask a copy of the album (if you wish to) and they’ll hand it to you willingly for FREE.

     Most of their songs are about how they see, criticize and make fun about life and society. They have fast paced verses, sing able choruses and silly lyrics (sometimes), with tunes that are likeable that you won’t notice they’re singing about criticisms of life unless you listen fuc*ing well.
