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 ↴
Not realizing I was moving too slow
Tried to hang on
But there was nothing left for me to hold
It's such a shame that you can't be with me tonight
I'm spinnin' round in cycles
Hope you change your mind
I look around, it's you I thought I find
I've Been on standby
Not realizing I was moving too slow
Instant replay
But there was nothing I can do about it
Still in denial
I can't believe that you can do this to me
No lights ahead
I've been looking forward but I could not see
I have been waiting for you all night
Under the glow of the satellite
The lyrics to Sandwich's song "Two Trick Pony" depict a person trying to move on from a past relationship that they were holding onto for too long. The singer is finally realizing that despite their efforts to hang on, there is nothing left for them to hold onto in this relationship. They feel that they were moving too slow in realizing that it was time to move on, and they are not able to change the situation now.
Line by Line Meaning
I want to move on
I desire to move forward from my current situation
Not realizing I was moving too slow
I was not aware that the pace of my movement was insufficient
Tried to hang on
I attempted to continue despite the situation being unfavorable
But there was nothing left for me to hold
There was no remaining opportunity to maintain my position
It's such a shame that you can't be with me tonight
I regret that you are unavailable to join me this evening
I'm spinnin' round in cycles
I feel as though I am repeating the same actions to no avail
Hope you change your mind
I have an optimistic outlook that you may choose to alter your plans
Before the show is over
I have limited time to resolve the situation
I look around, it's you I thought I find
I am searching for your presence
I've Been on standby
I have been waiting for a response
Instant replay
The event is repeating as if on playback
But there was nothing I can do about it
Unfortunately, I am powerless to intervene
Still in denial
I am struggling to accept the reality of the situation
I can't believe that you can do this to me
I am disbelieving that you could take this action against me
No lights ahead
There is no indication of a positive outcome
I've been looking forward but I could not see
I have been anticipating a resolution, but it remains elusive
I have been waiting for you all night
I have been patiently anticipating your company throughout the evening
Under the glow of the satellite
In the illumination of the moon or artificial light
