"What makes this music crucial is the fact that it isn't about the music. It isn't about the sickest riffs, or the heaviest 'breakdown'.. It isn't about the singer's powerful scream.. The music is a way to reach out to kids and share ideas with them."

-Easy, Tight End Fanzine Interview 2009

Formed in 2004 in the Cavite/Makati area, Half The Battle has been constantly playing the rounds of Laguna, Bulacan, Manila, Cavite, and Cebu, among others. Bringing their unique style of Old School Youth Crew-ish Hardcore wherever they play.

I first saw this band in the early 2000's at a gig somewhere in Cubao, and have been anticipating their full length release since that night. This record brings out the best of HTB's works from 2003-2009, and showcases Easy's newer approach to singing. (different from the last few demos they had put out) and this release was put out by the Takefour label and Major Malfunction.

Undoubtedly the Philippine's best Posi-core release for 2009. Support this band and contact them to purchase this treat from them directly.

HTB is:
Easy - Vocals
Papao - Guitars
Mike Puso - Drums
Rommel - Bass
