First usage of this name is credited to a duo of Eric Lumbleau (of Vas Deferens Organization) and Joel Zoch. They specialize in creating torrentially layered post-industrial, pan-ethnic psychedelic audio collages that resemble the avantgarde. They have released two albums, "Drunk On Sound" (1999), and "Screaming Zenith" (2002).

The Filipino band:
Something new, yet distinctly familiar. The name connotes an open mind, sophistication, and ambition. An endless list of influences range from the Beatles to Corduroy, Jamiroquai to Stevie Wonder, from Steely Dan to Jazzanova, whose colors find their way into the sonic palette. Guided by a cool head for business, the work is as fevered and passionate as a band enjoying full creative control: practical, but radical. Independent, yet pop.
Since the launch of bossaManila, their first full-length effort in April 2003, Sound's line-up underwent several changes. Liquid Jane's Chad Rialp had taken over bass duties for Yuson—who took a break from the band to pursue his medical studies—while Fajardo left the group towards the end of that year for other pursuits. Early 2004 saw the incorporation of newcomer Malek Lopez of Rubber Inc fame to fill the void that Fajardo left behind.
Sound's current following to date is attributed to their incendiary live act. Playing Manila's most noted music venues, such as 70s Bistro and Peligro, their set features a lush array of originals and interpretations; from Corduroy's January Woman to Gil Scott-Heron's Lady Day and John Coltrane, the Apo Hiking Society's ’Di Na Natuto to the Pinball Theme from Sesame Street.
The band is currently working towards the completion of their sophomore effort, Blue Monsoon, slated for release in 2006.
Total Recall
Sound Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Trying to hang on to the way that you'd like things to stay
You trace back the seconds recall the details
From someone will, to someone does
To someone did, you know I did
Oh there must be a hole in your memory
But I can see
A time when you will be with me
You cut me off just as I was starting to speak
The language you keep hidden away
It's just like the question on everyone's lips
But it's not on mine
Where all you'll find is a twisted smile
From another time
Another time, another time
Oh there must be a hole in your memory
But I can see
I can see, a distant victory
A time when you will be with me
Another time, another time
Oh there must be a hole in your memory
But I can see
I can see, a distant victory
A time when you will be with me
There'd be another time, another time
Oh there must be a hole in your memory
But I can see
I can see, a distant victory
A time when you will be with me
I can see, that there's got to be another time
It's got to be
“Total Recall” by Sound is a song that explores the concept of time and memory. The lyrics describe the way time seems to fly by before we can hang onto the moments we wish to remember. The singer is haunted by the memory of someone who used to be in their life, and they desperately try to recall the details of their past with that person. They long for a time when they will be reunited with this person again, and they hold onto the hope of a future victory when they will be together.
The second verse delves into the theme of communication and language. The singer feels frustrated that they are not able to express themselves fully to the person they are thinking of. They compare this to a question that is on everyone's lips, but not on their own. The singer's inability to articulate their thoughts and feelings is shown through their twisted smile, which is a painful reminder of the past.
Overall, “Total Recall” is a song about the power of memory and the longing for a better future. It speaks to anyone who has lost someone they love, and who wishes for a chance to reconnect with them again. Through its heartfelt lyrics and haunting melody, the song captures the emotional complexities of memory and the desire to hold onto those moments that mean the most to us.
Line by Line Meaning
It's all such a blur when time goes so quickly
Everything is hazy and hard to keep track of when time moves so fast
Trying to hang on to the way that you'd like things to stay
Attempting to hold onto the ideal version of events in your mind
You trace back the seconds recall the details
You go over the seconds and remember every detail
From someone will, to someone does
Moving from someone's intention to their action
To someone did, you know I did
Reflecting on past actions, admitting to doing something
Oh there must be a hole in your memory
There seems to be a gap in your memory
But I can see
I am perceptively aware of
I can see, a distant victory
I can see a future where things turn out well
A time when you will be with me
A future where we are together
You cut me off just as I was starting to speak
You interrupted me before I had a chance to speak
The language you keep hidden away
The type of communication you keep secret
It's just like the question on everyone's lips
It's a question that is on many people's minds
But it's not on mine
But I am not curious about it
Where all you'll find is a twisted smile
If you look deeper, you'll only find a deceptive grin
From another time
From a different period
Another time, another time
Repeated emphasis on a different era
There'd be another time, another time
It is possible for there to be another era
I can see, that there's got to be another time
I believe there will be another period
But I can see
Yet again stating my perceptiveness on the situation
I can see, a distant victory
Confidence in a successful outcome in the future
A time when you will be with me
A future where we will be together

"A distant victory" - to write this and be listened to 40 years later...[and how I still love it all]

I keep that line on a little piece of paper in my wallet. I've written down a lot of Adrian's lyrics and keep them in my possession. When life gets painful, and it often does; I simply open my wallet, unfold my little piece of paper and smile at those words.
