From the frightfully fertile soils of Filipino rock comes yet another gem of a band, Archipelago. Founded by guitarist Yan Yuzon (of current post-punk darlings Pupil), the quartet shovels out arena rock that belies their newness and openly declares their ambitions.

The band's debut album is due soon, with the album art designed by Malaysian designer Julian Oh (who has also worked with Malaysia's Ash, Singapore's Firebrands and Pupil) For more info, visit www.myspace.com/arch1pelago. Below, check out the band's new single 'MRI':
