1) Sandwich was founded in… Read Full Bio ↴There is more than one artist with this name:
1) Sandwich was founded in 1998 by Raimund Marasigan and Diego Castillo for the purpose of fulfilling their mutual desire to work together. Castillo recruited former band mates (from The Aga Muhlach Experience) Mike Dizon (of The Teeth) to play drums and Myrene Academia to handle bass duties. Marasigan was a judge at a contest where Marc Abaya jammed to a Beastie Boys song with his band, Shirley Beans.
Although existing simultaneously with the Marasigan's foremost band at that time, Eraserheads, Sandwich provided a heavier, grittier sound, and built up their own fan base. Abaya was still in college at the time, and Marasigan would still tour occasionally with the Eraserheads, but these weren’t hindering factors for Sandwich, as there were many sessionists ready to take over in case of a member’s absence.
They signed with then-BMG Records, now known today as Sony-BMG Music, and released their debut album, Grip, Stand, Throw, with much success, thanks to its carrier single, "Butterfly Carnival."
The band won three awards at the 1999 NU 107 Rock Awards: Album of the Year, Best New Artist, and Song of the Year.
They released their second album, Four-Track Mind, in 2000; it was awarded Album of the Year at the Rock Awards in 2001.
Sandwich then parted ways with BMG Records and released their third album, Thanks To The Moon’s Gravitational Pull, in 2003. It was under distribution by EMI Records Philippines.
Abaya left Sandwich in 2005, in an effort to cope with the difficulty of juggling his job as an MTV VJ, and his obligations to his other band, Kjwan. Marasigan has since taken over sole vocal duties.
After Abaya’s departure, the band wrote songs for soundtracks, like "Humanda Ka," which was done for the online game, Tantra, and "Nginiig" for the ABS-CBN show of the same name.
Mong Alcaraz of Chicosci joined the band late 2005 to solidify Sandwich’s new sound and assume guitar duties Abaya left behind.
They released their latest album, Five On The Floor, in early 2006.
In late-October 2006, their songs "Sugod" and "DVDx" became available in the online music game O2Jam.
The video for "Sugod" won five major awards at the 2006 MTV Pilipinas Video Awards including Video of the Year, Best Director, and Best Editing.
Recently, Sandwich member Mong Alcaraz and Myrene Acamedia had won the best guitarist and best bassist in recent NU Rock Awards 2006 respectively.
2) Band hailing from Columbus, Ohio featuring members from bands as diverse as The Lindsay, Brainbow, The Fighting Weight, and The Tough and Lovely, and fronted by known estate-sale vinyl proprietor, Ron House. Randomly formed in 2007. on the occasion of Columbus' annual Rock Potluck.

Sandwich Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I guess I didn't believe it
Until Dad always seem apprehensive
And now he's really freaking out
What do I do?
I don't want that for you
Everybody tells me life is precious
And that means you
And I have to protect you
What if somehow you get hurt
What do I do?
I don't want that for you
Oooooooooh
Oooooooooh
Oooooooooh
Oooooooooh
What am I going to tell you?
You're better off not knowing
The trouble I'm in
I don't want you to worry
About what've I just seen
About where've I just been
You don't have to be a part of this
I don't think I want you to be
You don't need this
You don't need me
Oooooooooh
Oooooooooh
Oooooooooh
Oooooooooh
The lyrics to Sandwich's song Nginig reflects the internal conflict the singer experiences between wanting to protect someone they love and wanting to shield them from the dangers of the outside world. The first verse describes the singer's hesitation to believe the warnings about the dangers of "gem stuff," which is likely a reference to the magical powers possessed by the characters in the television show, "Steven Universe." The singer acknowledges that their father expressed caution, which has caused the singer to become anxious over the safety of their loved one.
The second verse continues this theme of protecting what is precious. The singer acknowledges that life is precious and that they must protect their loved one from harm. Fearful of what might happen, the singer wonders what they would do if their loved one ever got hurt. The repetition of the line "What do I do?" highlights the singer's anxiety and insecurity about how to protect their loved one from danger.
The chorus, consisting of four lines of "Ooooooh," adds emotional weight to the lyrics, heightening the sense of urgency and vulnerability the singer is experiencing. In the final verse, the singer admits that they are in trouble and that they don't want their loved one to worry for them. The singer wishes to spare their loved one the burden of knowing about their struggles and doesn't want them to be a part of it. This stanza represents the song's climax, where the singer's internal conflict comes to a head, and the singer realizes the need to protect their loved one by keeping them away from danger.

Everybody told me gem stuff's dangerous
People have warned me about how dangerous it can be to mess around with gems
I guess I didn't believe it
I didn't think that it could be as bad as they said it was
Until Dad always seem apprehensive
But now that I see how worried my dad is all the time
And now he's really freaking out
I realize that it's because it's really THAT bad
What do I do?
I don't know what steps to take next to fix the situation
I don't want that for you
I don't want you to go through the same thing I'm going through
Everybody tells me life is precious
People keep reminding me of how valuable life is
On the planet earth
Especially since we live on this planet
And that means you
Which means that you, too, are very precious and valuable
And I have to protect you
So it's my duty to keep you safe from harm
What if somehow you get hurt
I worry that things could happen that would put you in danger
What do I do?
I don't know how to prevent such things from happening
I don't want that for you
And I definitely don't want you to get hurt
What am I going to tell you?
I don't even know how to explain what I've seen or experienced
You're better off not knowing
It might be better if you never have to know about some of these things
The trouble I'm in
The situation I'm currently in is very problematic
I don't want you to worry
I don't want you to have to fret over my problems
About what've I just seen
Especially since what I've seen is pretty disturbing
About where've I just been
And where I've gone isn't exactly the safest of places
You don't have to be a part of this
I don't want you to be involved in any of this mess
I don't think I want you to be
Actually, I'm pretty certain that I don't want you to be involved
You don't need this
It's not something that you need in your life
You don't need me
And you definitely don't need me to be the one to drag you down
