History

Typecast was formed in the year 2000 in Laguna province. They were originally a quartet doing cover songs, and eventually started making their originals. As they were gathering more listeners with their increasing popularity, two members left leaving them the option to obtain a new guitarist. This was later done in the inclusion of Steve Frank Badiola who did both vocals and the guitar. With the release of the album "Every Moss And Cobweb" in 2006, the band has added another guitarist, Pacoy Fletchero.

Typecast released their debut CD "Last Time" which is an independent release. The lead single of the album, also entitled "Last Time", got the group a guest appearance in the radio station NU 107's program "In The Raw". Since then, their popularity in the underground music scene increased. They also performed in large musical events such as the Fete de la Musique 2005, and also did the opening act for the foreign band Good Charlotte in the latter band's Manila tour. The band, along with other famous Filipino rock bands like Kamikazee, Kjwan and Moonstar 88; contributed in the compilation album "Rok On!" for Philippine Ragnarok Online.

They have also released their second album entitled "The Infatuation Is Always There" that feature 12 tracks with "The Infatuation Is Always There" as the carrier single.

Their third album entitled "Every Moss And Cobweb" features the song "Will You Ever Learn" which won the "Song of the Year" category in the NU Rock Awards in 2007.
