[Title] => SLAPSHOCK 'We're great fans of Bisrock'
[Summary] =>
Unknown to many perhaps, rap-metal band Slapshock had spent substantial amounts of time in Cebu to record songs for two of their more recent albums, apart from the spate of invitations to perform.
"We've been here countless times, probably about 30 to 40 times already. Sometimes, we would record songs here at Backyard," vocalist Jamir Garcia tells The FREEMAN in a recent sit-down interview. Backyard Studio has been the choice recording venue of underground rock acts from Cebu and other parts of the south.
