The original band members were a bunch of altar boys and choir members in a parish in cebu.

The band’s primary influence are songs heard over the church and contemporary christian music,other of the band’s influence varies and is quite diffrent with each other’s interests but that what makes the band’s sound and feel includes the 80’s rock, the classics,Love songs, guitar instrumental, the blues, nu-metal, smooth jazz, etc. etc. Aggressive audio consider themselves as a jam band, and mainly considers the thought of playing by feel than by memory. MC Rey Nadela was also a choir in the same church the band was in, and Brownian Method was In full swing back then, he helped the band to perform at a yearly concert in Cebu which is called Yukbo: Ang Konsyierto for 3 consecutive years and bieng the live band for his songs instead of backing tracks played at some occasions.
The band would soon start playing numerous invites within cebu. Thay have also performed at YAMAHA recitals and performing as back-up bands for the recitalists and started playing at Kahayag Café around 2003. Then began writing some songs, “Don’t Ever” is marked as the 1st song composed by the band with the leading composer Eugene Corpin and Sidney Alburo. Since then the band has been composing songs and began writing Bisaya as the primary choice of words. Pwerteng Lingina was recorded last 2005 and released as an independent record which inclueds most of the overplayed Bisrock songs in Cebu like Senior Citizen, Lingin, Tangkong and Cok-kuto.
Currently, the band has been working on their follow-up album (independent), our preview tracks for that album and what you will be expecting from the band soon. Tracks include Feeling Lang, Adoloscence, Liar Evil and First Timer. Former guitar player Archie Uy will be producing the new record and at the same time (still) playing guitars for the next album with the current Aggressive Audio guitarist Randolf Silvano. Expect the album within this year with a full length release. This new album will be recorded at Backyard Project Studios and in Wisconsin, USA with the assistance and guidance of Kerryl Demetrio.

Sudden Change

Sudden Change

As of 9:35 this mornin' I decided to remove the links for downloadable bisrock songs due to some legal reasons...ehmmn...don't really have any bad intentions...a big apology for all the people who get mad because of what I did...

My fave bisrock songs

Senseless Song

Well, I really, really love this friggin' song from my fave bisrock band "The Ambassadors". Dunno why, but the message of its lyrics seems to laugh at me every time I sing it loud. Maybe it's because I'm very emotional and I always think that every emo stuff I see and hear is fuckin' related with my friggin' emotions. Well, it is actually "Forever", another song from that band that I first fell in love with. Someone close to my heart dedicated it to me.

Handuraw Cafe

Well, I'm kinda busy these past few days that I haven't had any time to drop by there. I really want to watch every bisrock gigs there but time is my worst enemy. I actually hope that the place will be renovated. I mean Handuraw's space seems to become smaller and smaller as bisrock followers increase in number. The cafe's management should consider a little renovation to accommodate the increasing number of bisrock fanatics who often hang out in there. Ehmmn...what else? For MP3 and Lyrics request don't hesitate to go to Immortality Forum.

Jah Bless!

are also juggling around with some names for it as well. They
