The Intriguing Story of Filipino Metal Band Diablo: Be cautious of unverified information and always fact-check to separate myths from facts in the world of music.
The world of music, especially in the realm of metal, can be full of mysteries and misconceptions. During a Reddit discussion on a podcast, the hosts discovered an intriguing story about a Filipino metal band named Diablo. The band was supposedly formed in the early 1970s and was considered a pioneer in the metal genre. However, the release year of their demo "Huling Samba" was claimed to be 1973, which seemed unlikely given the sound of the music. Upon further investigation, users on Reddit uncovered conflicting information about the band, including rumors of a member being arrested for a violent crime. Despite the lack of corroborating evidence, the story gained traction due to the intrigue surrounding the band's supposed history. This incident highlights the importance of fact-checking and questioning the sources of information we encounter. It also serves as a reminder that the world of music, like many other areas, can be filled with myths and legends that may or may not be true. Ultimately, it's up to us to separate fact from fiction and make our own informed judgments.
Did a Filipino band really invent metal before it existed?: The origins of a Filipino mellow metal band's claim to have invented metal before it existed are questionable, with first mentions online dating back to 2012, around the same time a movie about a punk band's false claim to genre invention was released.
The origins of a Filipino mellow metal band's claim to have invented metal before it existed are questionable, as the first mentions of this band online date back to 2012, around the same time a movie about the punk band Death from Detroit was released. This movie portrayed the band as inventors of genres decades before they were actually active. While it's not impossible for a band to be so far ahead of their time musically, it's also a possibility that this Filipino band's claim is a hoax. The band Cro Magnon is another example of a group that accidentally invented a genre, old school industrial music, in 1969. The Internet has provided people with creative ways to use information, and while some might find it delightful if the Filipino band's claim is a hoax, others would prefer it to be real. Ultimately, it's up to listeners to decide when the Filipino band's music actually came out and whether they believe the possibility that they invented metal before metal was even a genre.
