About D'Rockers:

In July of 1995 when Grunge Music was at its boiling point, 4 architecture students who talk about how the velvet underground changed music decided to collaborate a side project on music for fun. 3 Jesus and Mary Chain covers, and a tortured Beatle song, got them to perform in front of fellow architecture students on their annual acquaintance party. a week later a spaced out friend invited them to play on a battle of the band contest and also marked their first public performance. That was the day D'Rockers was born.... after a feedback driven set, we were proud and humbled to say that a "hand-less" of individuals congratulated us on the performance. as beginners on the music scene, Leo had to play standing up because he only knew a beat and it did not require playing the bass drum, Roger and Noels scale was so limited he had to cover songs like "down on me" or "teenage lust". Miah's range was so limited any cover they made had to sound like the velvet underground. But in the end, it was all about how music became our therapy to a normal life or how Morrissey's poetry (like most mozheads) shaped our souls. That same year of '95, D'Rockers began a crusade. a crusade to perform music to please them, a crusade that no club owner or promoter could tell them what to play or do on stage. although we were infamous, we would never run out of gigs for 6 awsome years... On March of 2001, Miah moved to Chicago and D'Rockers called it quits. In Jan. of 2009, Miah visited Cebu on a month long break and we reunited briefly and managed to put some raw music on file. played a few gigs and just like the old days, the passion never dies... We hope to do a full album when time permits.
