Fronted by the iconic Karl Roy (Advent Call and P.O.T.), the band was originally made up of some of the industry's heavyweights: Nathan Azarcon (Bamboo) on bass, J-Hoon Balbuena (Kjwan) on drums, Ira Cruz (Passage and Bamboo) on rhythm guitars and the late Chico Molina on lead guitars. The band went on to release their first self-titled LP with hits songs PRAYER, PAGBABALIK NG KWAGO, VISIONS among others, in 2003 to great acclaim.
Through the years Kapatid has successfully weathered a seemingly never-ending string of trials. From the ever-evolving lineup to the untimely death of a member, the band has managed to stay on the forefront of the industry, amassing a sizeable number of "diehard" fans.
Today, Kapatid is, more than ever, a musical force to be reckoned with. Joining the inimitable Karl Roy in 2004 was veteran musician and award-winning bassist and producer Louie Talan (Razorback, Pinikpikan, Mishka Adams and the Blue Echoes, Spy and Cynthia Alexander) causing the group to reach a new level of maturity balanced perfectly by gifted young bloods guitarist Anjones Elemos and drummer Paolo Rosal
(Queso). This formula has enabled a growth in their fan base, encompassing both sides of the spectrum: long time music aficionados and the youth. More than this, Kapatid has achieved the missing component to an otherwise successful whole: stability. Proof of their explosive musical chemistry and creative genius is evident in their second album
Luha, with carrier songs DOON, PSYCHO LOVE, SUNDAY SHINING(included in PINOY BLONDE soundtrack), released in February 2006 and distributed by Sony Records.
With a solid lineup, a wealth of fresh material and a whole lot of attitude, Kapatid is once again taking the music scene by storm. Not wishing to be stagnant, their sound has evolved with the times and yet has retained the qualities, which make it Kapatid's own unique brand of music.
Four talented individuals, four different personalities but with one common passion: to create music that is original and unique, going beyond the sublime, a universal language that unites-that is Kapatid. (-G.D.L.R.)

Kapatid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
as if the world stopped turnin intrusions spinning in my head.
I stood there for a moment and gazed into
the sky, exploding visions in my eyes...
revelation yeah!
Is this eternity?
Hypnotized by its perfection reveals its resolution.
What is this color in my mind?
burnin and yearnin, my head is turning, a ray of ^%$#@!
revelation yeah!
Is this eternity?

light shining down on me...
I try to shut my eyes from this blindin
vision but there's no way coz this is no delusion.
Theres something here we got to do,
brothers and sisters lets start anew.
burnin and yearnin, my head is turning, a ray of ^%$#@!
Should I follow now in disbelief questioning myself to find
relief burnin and yearnin my head is turnin, a ray of ^%$#@!
light shinin down on me.
