EDIT: I FOUND IT!!!
EDIT2: Edited the link

A sadder ending: I can't find it and it seems to be deleted.

I was gonna link it but now it's gone. It's an obscure progressive metal band from the Philippines. IIRC it was made in the early 2000s (maybe 2007).

always such a shame when that happens :(( same thing happened with this slavic metal album i found years back. everything was in the cyrillic alphabet so impossible for me to search for it elsewhere now.

So I have a somewhat different story - downloaded a song from YouTube about 8 years ago. Stumbled upon it on my phone again a year ago, and tried to find it in better quality. Song, and artist, seems to have been erased from the internet.

Oh well, at least the song is a banger and I have a copy lol.

Do you have the band’s name? I like digging for stuff like this.

Oh, awesome! I was able to find this SoundClick profile with a working stream for that song, as well as 10 other songs they recorded.

Unfortunately it looks like the files uploaded were only 128kbps, but it sounds a little better than the YouTube video to my ears. :)

I recently got myself into listening music from the Philippines and encountered the same problem as you of having to settle with 128kbps files. I'm hoping someday those bands will release their albums on streaming services.

Hey I know that band! I saw them live recently in San Diego. The guitarist is super talented!
