In other news, Cyber Band’s “Through the Passages of Time” was recently named as one of Coast2Coast‘s 25 best VisMin songs of 2024. In a review of the song, we wrote, “To say that Cagayan de Oro’s Cyber Band are talented musicians would be a grave understatement. The title track of their recent album, Through the Passages of Time, is as experimental as it gets. For 23 straight minutes, you get this anthemic, dissonant, intense feast for the ears. There really is nothing else to say except that this track is an audio rollercoaster in all the right ways.”
