MANILA, Philippines – It isn't unusual for artists to release new music every Friday – which is the day of the week new tracks usually drop. But this Friday happens to be Independence Day, so it's no surprise that we got more than just love songs and inspirational tunes in this wave of new releases.

Each song sounds different – from Dicta License's hard-edge numetal vibe, to Carousel Casualties' sunny alternative rock sound – but common through each of them is a thirst for freedom and a desire for truth.In true Dicta License fashion, the band's latest track – their first new release in over a year – does not shy away from social commentary.
