Bamboo: As The Music Plays

Bamboo: As The Music Plays album cover.Listening to this CD I got from my girlfriend for my birthday, I can’t help but recall the old Rivermaya days—a unique blend of vocal talents. The Bamboo Mañalac–Rico Blanco sound was simply unrivalled during the mid–nineties, when the Filipino band scene was very much alive and kicking.

Fast forward to 2004 and we have Bamboo — The Band. After quitting Rivermaya and leaving for the US several years ago, Bamboo Mañalac has returned to Manila and formed his own band, aptly named Bamboo. Joined by former Rivermaya bassist Nathan Azarcon, with Ira Cruz and Vic Mercado of Passage, they have released their first album As The Music Plays, with the current radio hit Noypi as the carrier single.

Every song highlights their music’s main selling point—Bamboo’s wonderful voice. Personally, they sound much “lighter” compared to Rivermaya (who else should I compare them to?); though I notice that some of their songs, especially those written in Filipino, has some of the Rico Blanco style of songwriting—surely a strong influence to Mañalac’s music.

Upon getting this CD and listening to it for a few days, my initial impression was that there wasn’t anything too special about their music. Not enough of the wow–factor you get listening to the Eraserhead’s Fruitcake or Cutterpillow, yet playing the songs more in Winamp (yes, I was able to rip the copy–protected CD) makes you develop a liking for their music, growing everyday. I don’t know, it must be that voice.

The band itself sounds nice and clean, the guitarwork sweet and simple. Once again, we get to enjoy Azarcon’s playful (but not funky playful) bass lines, something I noticed a lot in older Rivermaya records.

My picks: Masaya, War Of Hearts And Minds, These Days, Hudas and Noypi.

Ten songs for a CD priced less than 300 pesos. Worth every depreciating peso. If you’re a Rivermaya fan missing Bamboo’s voice, this is your fix. For casual listeners, this is certainly worth a try.

  3. maganda nga daw yung “noypi”. I wanna have a copy of the CD, but I don’t have a credit card yet, so baka tiyaga nalang muna ako sa mp3 🙂

  4. “Noypi” is nice, but we hear it so often on the radio these days. Medyo gasgas na. I suggest you get the CD, it’s only 250. Worth it naman sya. 🙂

  5. hindi pa ako maka-order sa online filipino store kasi wala pa akong credit card. pero it’s nice because eventhough i’m here in canada nakakasagap pa ako ng latest music from the philippines. 🙂

  6. nakabili n ko ng album ni bamboo ang ganda lahat ng songs nila. naaakit ako sa boses mo bamboo sana makita n kita ng personal!!! d p kita nakikitang mag concert!!! magconcert k naman dito sa laguna plsssssssss!! i love u bamboooooooo!!!

  7. definitely, the album is good… the music is light but there is something on their lyrics… look at noypi’s lyrics… i think its an awakening on our fellow filipino… those working as dh in other countries… those who strive in the farmlands… yung mga collonial attitude… eventhough our country’s economy sucks… its a good song for every filipino… i think its a tribute to our nationality…

    pakingan nyo rin yung ibang songs… ang galing…

  8. sya nga pala, baka nman may idea n kayo kung may website na sila… paki post nman po…

  9. …Anyone who has lyrics ni BAmboo- WAR OF HEARTS AND MINDS, Mr. Clay, Pride and the Flame, Light Years, As the Music Plays the Band, AND Take Me down. sALAMAT sa inyo!! Peace!!

  11. ganda ng NOYPI..pedeng maging anthem ng bagong pilipino..hehehe..sana may pictures kyo ng band.especially si Ira,pki post naman … 🙂

  12. ang ganda talaga ng noypi as in!!!eversince,idol na idol ko na talaga si bamboo!!!tumatayo yung balahibo ko everytime i here their song!!!hindi ko pa naririnig yung ibang songs nila pero sabi nila maganda,sana makabili na ako ng album nila..one more thing,bamboo magpainterview ka naman!!!!!!!!!!!!

  15. after 5 long years,d2 n uli ang nag iisang bamboo mañalac. i really love this guy eversince the rivermaya days. magaling din si rico but i find bamboo the best among all the local vocalists here in the phils.i felt bad when i heard the news bout bamboo staying in US for good, kala ko di n sya babalik. but now i’m so happy bumalik na sya sa music industry.i really love bamboo even though he’s kinda mysterious.he doesn’t like talking too much in the interviews kya nga daming nababaliw n fans dyan.keep on rockin’ bamboo. we love you

  16. hey, to all bamboo fans out there,post nyo nman dito mga gigs nila kung alm nyo,pti tv guestings nila. thank you so muchhhhh!!!

  17. Pinakamalupit na song sa album yung “masaya” kahit malungkot yung kanta masaya parin, lets get it on mennn!!!!!!

  18. sana mag guest sa sop c bamboo, duet sila ni paolo santos, kantahin nila yung masaya. thnx!!!!!!

  19. astig talaga ni bamboo!!!! pero masasabi ko lang eh… much better p rin kung sanib pwersa p rin cla ng rivermaya!!! pero okey lng kc i think si bamboo lng naman ang ngpaganda s rivermaya eh!!! pero astig din naman ang rivermaya pero mas astig ang “NOYPI” hoy!! pinoy ako.. buo aking loob, may agimat ang dugo ko!!!! nyahahahaha!!!! gusto ko din ung as the music plays…. 123456789..10!!! nyahahaha!!! ASTIG TAU JAN!!! BAMBOO ROCKS!!!! \m/

  21. ngayon ko lang nabasa to, and its only bcoz i was searching for info on bamboo.. i think bamboo is really great.. and with ira with the band, thats like two times better!

    bamboo is the hottest band in the philippines today, dude!

    Ü

  22. My prayers has been answered!!! bumalik yung idol ko! si bamboo!!! wala pa rin syang pnagbago since nung nasa rivermaya sya dati! inly much better sya ngaun!! kaya kung ako sa inyo mag-pakanoypi na kayo kse their album is worth buying!!!!!

  23. all i can say is that bamboo was the best!!! sobrang astig talaga nila and they really look and sound sooo… cool! grabe i really like them.
    BAMBOO ROCKS!!!!!!!

  24. i’m drowning..hehehe, nabuhay ang dugo the first time i saw bamboo on tv after leaving rivermaya (mtv music summit for aids)…para akong baliw eh, nabalisa! don’t know how to describe the feeling nung narinig uli boses ni bamboo, bonus pa yung makita mong nagperform si bamboo…hanep ang yugyog niya, di mo maintindihan kung sayaw ba yun…..basta! the guy has the most haunting voice among filipino band vocalists….pero it’s still undeniable na maganda talaga ang songwriting ni rico …lam naman natin ang quality ng rivermaya music….but Bamboo_the_band is really doing great!!!!when bamboo was still with rivermaya, i knew he could right songs ’cause the track “Fever” from Atomic Bomb was really haunting….basta, Bamboo!!! binuhay nila ang dugo ko!!!

  25. Ahoy! I was searching for Bamboo(the band) related articles nang bigla akong mapadpad sa blog mo…harhar. I love the baaaaaaaaand! I love the muuuuusic! And idol ko si Lolo Nathan! harhar! Adios! Whapaaaaaaaak!

  28. napadpad ako sa show ni michael v habang naghahanap ng mapapanood sa telebisyon at naabutan kong kinakausap ang bamboo…kabalintunaan nga naman na sa kagandahan ng mensaheng ipinaparating ng kanta nilang noypi ay nababahiran ito ng “kataksilan” kumbaga ng mga palabas na nagpapabobo sa mga noypi ngayon. gayunpaman, salamat pa rin sa bamboo dahil may katuturan ang musika nila (sa gitna na naghihikaos na industriyang mahilig pumatol sa revivals at mas malala pang “bobofication”…ika nga ni randy david…o ni conrado de quiros)…in short…bamboo: YOU ROCK!

  29. i stand corrected (by me): “…(sa gitna NG naghihikaos na…)” sensya na, na-OC lang po

  30. ASTIG TALAGA C BAMBOO!! grAbeh!! kitA ko cLa lAst night LIVE sa mTV rOck d Vote cOncert diTo sa CebU! gRabeh!! kAhit mgA apat Songs Lang tiNugtOg niLa,wOrth pa rIn unG 5-Hour sTandIng Koh sa Mosh pit!! waaaHH!!

  32. nkita ko cla BAMBOO d2 sa cebu MTV rock the Vote. Magaling tlaga cla! esp c bamboo, dun ko lng ulit nrinig boses nya.. mganda ang noypi! the best!

  33. Amoy chiko nanaman ako,pero masaya parang pagibig,buti nalang nandyan si judas as his playing the music of 93….ibang klase yung sound nila ngayon especilly yung comination ng base,drums and guitars,tapos maririnig mo ulit yung boses ni bamboo….salamat sa pagbuhay nyo ulit sa natutulog kung mundo…ay iba pla yun…guys you should try this new album…keep the filipino music alive..jb

  34. yung comment no.16….duet daw si bamboo at paolo santos,tama yun bagay sila kawayan sa kawayan… joke lang idol ko rin si paolo payatot santos!

  35. Cno ba ung tinutukoy na may agimat?? Si Ramon Revilla Sr.? wakekekeke!!! Pero astig ung song na to.. sayang wala pa kong cd nito para pang soundtrip sa bahay..

  36. Napakaganda ng concept ng as the music plays.mula sa track one til track ten talaga mapapansin ng nakikinig yung theme talaga buong buo-brown pride hindi mawawala.tapos kahit tila pasigaw pagkanta nya minsan,yung emotion napakaganda ng banat-naaalala nyo pa ba awit ng kabataan?tapos ang line up-ira cruz-jazz funk style,nathan azarcon-the best bassist in the philippines para sakin,vic mercado-sumasabay sa flow ng music.tapos maganda kc kay bamboo galing sa puso ang pag awit nya..sana malapit na ang second album.magconcert sana sila sa baguio inaantay sila ng music scene dito.lalo ko tuloy na appreciate opm-like music ng apo hiking society kasi alongside the simplicity comes timeless masterpiece like that of bamboo_the band.salamat sa first installment ng band ninyo.support din sa ibang banda and artists sa pinas.war for peace is not the answer sbi nga nila sa myx live.

  37. laurag! astig talaga ang bamboo! I hope they will write more songs…………

  38. D best talaga ang bandang BAMBOO..makabayan!..i really like the lyrics and the beat of the songs in the album. i have watched the MYX Present:BAMBOO..ang galing nila talaga..kahit sa pagpresent plang nila ng kanilang sarili…grabe!they appeared MYSTERIOUS!!!

  39. at last!!! for the first time, i saw bamboo mañalac in person at the mtv rock the vote held here in SM City Cebu last May 1. It was superb!!! Grabe, bamboo”s performance was great, really great! ang gwapo nila lahat, especially of course to bamboo! sila lang talaga pinuntahan at inaabangan ko dun! it was worth watching! ü… more power to you guys!

    last sunday, i got to chance AGAIN to see bamboo perfom live! this was the greatest coz it was their album tour and guess what they sang at least 7 cuts in thier album! grabe, it was amazing! all out perfomance talaga yung idol ko! i was in the front row and took all of their pictures! hehe… but the most exciting part was i was able to go inside thier dressing room and have their autographs signed my cd!i was so speechless when i had a face to face with bamboo and the rest of the band! i never expected they were so approachable and friendly! gosh! all i did was smile, na starstruck talaga ako! i haven”t had the chance to kiss them (hehe, ang kapal ko naman if ganun di bah! hehe) but at least i got to shook their hands by congratulating thier great album and songs! sulit talaga yung album nila! thier lyrics were very inspiring! that”s it!!! thanks BAMBOO for that free concert! God Bless you all! ü

  40. For me, Bamboo made a come back not because of the fame but because MUSIC is already in his heart! Nasa dugo na niya! If you see him perform live, you can actually notice how he expresses himself on his music! He just really want to perfom! And he really love what he’s doing! That’s one character i like in him! ü

    Does anyone know Bamboo’s fan site? please post it here, pls? ü….. i’ve been surfing a lot of sites but unfortunately i haven’t found one yet!

    …..Bamboo really is a mysterious guy! ü

  41. hi again everyone!!!

    good news! at last, for many sites i”ve visited, i came across a website stating that Nathan had just recently signed a deal with thier official band website! its— http://www.bamboo-band.com. Check on this coz it”s their website na talaga!

  42. Bakit kaya nagbuo ng ibang band c bamboo? i’ve read lots of news about rivermaya, sabi panga ni rico ok lang naman pagalis ni bamboo bcoz of family matters daw. Nagaway ba sila? mas ok kc kung magsasamasama ulit cla.

  43. The songs were well written. The guitar riffs are excellent. The sound is tight. This is one album that is MABANGIS na, MAHUSAY pa, ASTIG pa!!!!

  44. penge nmn ng lyrics ng mga songs ni Bamboo

    e.g.

    AS the music plays

    &

    Mr. Clay

    plssssssssssssssssssssssssszzzzzzzzzzz

  45. la lang..hanep talaga. i was there too…sa rock the vote and the album tour. hehehe, awkward nga lang, kasi i took picture of Bamboo with Vic, ahem..nanginginig kamay ko eh….i did not see bamboo in person before he left rivermaya then bigla na lang sa come back niya, hehehe….for real pala! i was dying to see him barefooted..hehehe, baka matakot yung guwapong kalbo…nde naman kami stalkers! pero naka dare talaga akong sumigaw ng “nathan, i love you”. bumuhos nga pala ang ulan pero nde naman kami nag alisan eh…sbi ni nathan “salamat sa mga natira”… hehehe…pagdaan ni nathanafter the show, nde siya lumingon kasi busy siya shake hands with guy, i punched him sa left arm kaya napalingon siya..hehehe, nabigla saka sabay tawa…hehehe…
    basta, super ang performance…galing nilang mag live! super talaga ang performance…..me kaluluwa!

  46. Everyone, if you’re looking for lyrics to any of their songs, you can’t get it here. I probably won’t post it. It’s in the CD! So if you come here looking for lyrics, it’s obvious you don’t have the CD, and most probably just a pirate/MP3 copy. Mahiya naman kayo. Get the CD, the band deserves it.

    For those looking to get in touch with them, they have a mailing list at bamboo_theband@yahoogroups.com.

    Thank you all for keeping the discussion lively, and sharing your opinions and experiences.

  57. astig talaga si bamboo…andun pa rin yung weirdness niya na very appealing at yung voice niya na very powerful…its all about their music…coz bamboo rocks!!!!

  58. weird talaga…pero yung pagka weird niya mahal ko. yung introvert and eccentric na dating…he does not really care what funny expressions his face makes just to bring out the best interpretation of the song..kahit looks weird na…parang kanyang kanya ang mundo…pero medyo natatauhan nararamdamang me nagmamasid kaya yun bigla na lang nakatalikod sa iyo at humaharap sa drummer…lolz 🙂

  59. “ah, my head…it remembers
    it never forgets
    how my heart shrieked
    to the music that was played

    i remember i was dancing
    but dancing out of tune
    to the moon, i was prancing…
    to sanity swoon

    did he walk away
    ……….”

    –>nde ko na tatapusin parang haba na eh…basta yun na yun pag naaalala kong ramdaman ko pag-alis na bamboo..pinilit umibig ng ibang musika…kahit naniwala na me maganda pa ring musika…iba pa rin ang sigaw ng kaluluwa mo…me hahanapin…pag nangyari yun, mapapansin mo na lang parang ur dancing out of tune nga 🙁 🙁 🙁 nde yun ang musika na tutugma sa sayaw ng puso mo…haaay!

  60. I like the album completely. Wala talagang sayang. I don’t know, I just like it so much, considering myself as a hardcore and rapcore fanatic… I like it very much especially “As the music plays the Band”.

  61. i haven’t brought the cd yet. but i am so in love with bamboo and the whole band that i badly want to have the cd. i promise myself to by one soon. i watch them perform in myx live and hear almost all their songs, grabe astig talaga ng songs nila. and i admit it they all have meanings in a very simple way just take a look at the lyrics and feel the song.

    MR. CLAY

    red sun dawn
    guns are drawn
    skull and bones
    beast of war
    father help me stop this.

    rush of blood to the head
    look at you and i see red
    start this game
    i’ll end it

    by this hate
    that you help the world create
    i’ve been sent
    now repent.
    i’m the war that comes to you
    i’m the plague that follows through

    i’ve been told
    you’ve been warned
    to stop the hatred
    you have spawned
    the qualms you have are stupid

    by this movement manifest
    Lord i’ll put you to the test
    yet you fail
    now the blind that follow you
    will burn in hell with you

    chorus:

    all by myself
    i know that i stand here alone
    all your lies they feed me

    i’m stronger now
    stronger now than i was before
    there’s no way you can hurt me
    move me
    stop me

    talk too much mutherfucker hush
    you had your chance to change things
    move in the direction of right
    choose to set the bar
    but then you had to pick a fight
    so what’s daddy done for you lately?
    bought you the throne
    like stealing candy from a baby
    line your pockets with mucho dinero
    paid in full with the blood of the people
    so now you got the fires rockin
    blood and hate
    then you got the people talking legacy
    you will never be forgotten
    your place in history
    a black mark in time
    a black mark in time
    (repeat chorus)

    peace and flowers
    will kill the superpowers
    the fall of rome is near
    can’t you hear?
    it’s been written, it’s been said
    the revelations i have read
    the signs are here.
    those days are over
    walk away from the line
    for now is the time
    (repeat chorus)

  145. @ dead_poet and trish: Sa totoo lang, I enjoy the comments very much. 🙂 Nakakatuwa, akala ko kasi bihira na ang ganung klaseng fans ngayon, tumatanda lang pala ako. Nakaka-asar lang yung iba, may mga nagpo-post din na nagmumura lang at nang-aasar, syempre delete lang ang solution para sa kanila. I’m also in the bamboo_theband egroup, pero lurker mode lang ako dun.

    Trish, are you from Cebu? Bisaya pud diay ka? 🙂

    dead_poet, walang bayad ang promotions, hehehe. Bigyan nyo na lang ako ng libreng ticket sa concert ng Bamboo. 🙂 Napansin ko napaka-active ng pag-campaign mo for them, are you directly connected with the band?

  146. -mao dyud! mga bisdak mi bay! mao bitaw kita mi’g rock the vote og album tour…hehehe! me and trish do communicate…dito kami sa hardin na to nagkita 🙂

  197. well definitely bamboo has this unique voice and still one of the Asia’s best lead singer. i was expecting before that each song from their debut-album sounds more powerful and a little bit rocky than the creations of rico blanco,’coz that’s the kind of songs where bamboo’s voice fits best.. But just when i bought their cd,i found it mellow and lighter than the one im expecting..but still, i like it! and i can’t get enough of their songs “As the music plays” ,” mr.clay” and “these days”.. listening to their music is a laid-back experience..and i must say that their album is not a waste of a hundred bucks.

  198. astig ka talaga bamboo. bagong labas pa lang noypi ni-suggest ko kagad sa banda ko na tugtugin namin yun. nung tinugtog namin, nagulat yung mga tao…akala nila original namin ‘yon. sabi ko kanta yun ng bamboo na pinamumunuan ni bamboo. nagulat ako kasi may nagsabing akala daw nila patay ka na!! shock ako kaya sabi ko bili sila ng copy nung “as the music plays”. ganda kasi talaga.. astig din yung mr.clay………… parang bagong breed ng rock sa pinas ang bamboo… ROCK oN!

  199. well the album is great awsome !!! its better than any other band except chicosci coz i love them too my favorite track in this album is mr. clay the music is great im looking 4rward 4 a much better album the next time they work 4 new album!!! keep it up guyz keep rocken!!! ahyabyou ira glad to see you again bamboo
