Betrayed

DOWNLOAD

One of my all time faves. I grew up with this stuff. I had matured with this tape. One of the bigger boys (literally and figuratively) playing the Brave New World gigs, Members had moved on to form Tropical Depression, Tame The tikbalang, and the short-lived U.S. - based Betrayed. I got to see them play for the first time at one of their reunion shows at a bar in Taft, Manila during the late 90's and was totally blown away by their set. I got to see them again at a Killah John gig in Marikina too.

Betrayed pioneered the Punk-meets-Reggae sound taking influence from the Clash, and Bad Brains, among others, but with a more harder edge feel to it.

A classic in it's own right, a gem for the anal collectors.

R.I.P. Je Bautista.. So long, bro!
