About Me: October 2005 Cathexis was formed in University of the Philippines Diliman. Their music is variously described as gothic rock, as well as ethreal rock (like cocteau twins) in some media, although cathexis claim that their music simply fell into a melodic rock genre. Directly after the release of their first song "Talisuyo 2 (Hintay)" in manila film festival as an official music soundtrack of the movie Shake Rattle and Roll 9, the band's music became very well appreciated specially in the underground scene. Now their music is currenlty playing at NU 107 in their program in the raw and remote control weekend. Most of the band members are from UP College of Fine Arts namely; Tza Gomez, Romel Sales, Marvin Cruz, Deo Beltran, and Ivan Averion. Val Munar, the Guitar 1 is from UP College of Engineering.
