SANDWICH
and their new album

Sandwich recently launched their latest album CONTRA TIEMPO on March 4, 2011 at Eastwood city. To date it is their 6th album so far since 1998 following < S > marks the spot. It includes the single LAKAD which is already topping the charts and also a Music Video relased directed by Jason Magbanua. The band is actually one of my favorites with their hits always on my playlist in my music players. And meeting them also made me so happy to see how this band still keeps making good music and did not fall into the trend of disbanding.
In December 2009, Sandwich released a brand new single to help and inspire our typhoon victims through the song title PUTIK, which is also included in the new cd. The album shows impressive range: while all of the songs are radio-ready rockers, they span a wide variety of musical elements with other titles include LAPIT, LAPIT, LAPIT; TAKBO;SUGATAN; STRANDED SA AIRPORT; SULPUTIN; BISIKLETA; DISPALINGHADO; DOWNHILL; SIESTA and the brand new radio hit single PERA, PERA.
Sandwich signed with their home label EMI Philippines (now Polyeast records) in 2006 for their fourth overall release and major label debut called Five on the Floor catapulted them on the top of the OPM charts with the songs, Sugod, Sunburn, DVDx, and Walang Kadala dala. Then Sandwich released the 2008's < S > marks the spot and spawned four hit singles like Procrastinator, Betamax, Selos and Manila.
