The band was formed around 2006 in Malabon City but it started as FERILLUM due to some brain stormings. Ferrum is notable in a studio in caloocan city for covering Iron maiden songs and megadeth but the band is not yet having an opportunity to have some exposure that time in public but of course as a band, they are interested in song writing and composing. Early Days First of all if you gonna ask how the band was formed? Here's the story. On January 2006, the Childhood friends, Roj Padida and Dice Donato, a 4th year high school students discovered their interest in music, because that year(2006) is the era where the Alternative Rock is being "hailed" in mainstream (in the (Philippines). They decided to form a band with a 3rd year students Glen Paul Elmido and Dexter Jarque. Roj was a member of choir that day, and he has a companion named Noel Tarusan who is interested in playing drums. The first line up was Roj as vocalist, Dice as Lead Guitarist, Dexter as Rhythmguitarist, Glen as Bassist and Noel as Drummer with help of Mr. Aubel Aumenta, one of the choir's Officer as Noel's drum-playing trainor. They started to cover OPM rock songs and some foreign Alternative songs such as Rivermaya, Eraserheads, Bamboo, Greenday, Simple Plan and Mayonnaise. But unfortunately because of studies and the two members are a graduating students, they decided to focus on studies so the band was temporarily halted. After the graduation Dice donato lost his interest in music, so Roj decided to form a new lne up. Then he choose Mildred Capito, a choirmate as vocalist covering OPM Female rock songs such as sessionroad, kitchie nadal, mojofly,imago, barbie's cradle and etc. with Glenn, Noel and Dexter and Roj as Lead Guitarist. Roj's skills in playing guitar was upgraded with the of Mr Bryan Resusta, the choir director. But after few months the band was also stopped because of ohter priorities. Adjustment Period On 2008, Roj tried to listen other genres, which are metal rock and Pinoy rock, such as Wolfgang and Razorback and also Metallica. He tried to learn some guitar scaling and techniques. When he meet Jaypee by the help of Glenn, they've discovered that they have the same type of music. With the help of Noel tarusan, they've formed a band again covering Wolfgang, Razorback and Heber BArtolome's Songs With a line up Roj as Vocalist/ Lead Guitarist , Noel as Drummer and Jaypee on Bass Guitar. But Noel, as a basketball player pursued his carreer as a varsity player of his barangay. Roj and Jaypee was left, they tried to take Glen's Time to listen and Focus in Metal Music but after a month Glen committed a suicide because of personal problems. They've met Justin Alejo, a drumplayer in a church. Roj and Justin are both employees of a famous restaurant in the Philippines. They've also formed a band with Jaypee covering OPM Rock such as sugarfree, after image and some drops of wolfgang and razorback. But after some misunderstandings and Genre miscompatibility and because of Justin Alejo's disappearance on their first exposure as a showband in Bulacan on a wedding reception, they've disbanded. On 2009, A battle of the band in San Ildefonso Bulacan was set and Jaypee Called Roj to take as a lead guitarist and on that night they won as 2nd runner up and they've played "Balong Malalim", "Mamasyal sa Pilipinas" and "One Last breath" as a Soundcheck song. Funeral for a Friend Because of that event, Roj's interest in Music was revived and on January 2010 he convinced Dice to play as Bassist, Michael Ferrer as Lead Guitarist and Honey Mae Samson as Drummer, but the only one who responded was Dice. A guitarist named Jayson Agravante took Roj's interest in Music and they've decided to form a band again named "FERRUM SKEWER" FERRUM(Iron) as Rolled-back Revision of FERILLUM and as a tribute to Iron Maiden and SKEWER as Jayson's Suggested. Bernard , as a member of an organization named "Malabon Musician's Alliance" convinced the group to join the said organization. Roj interest in Megadeth and Iron Maiden's music was agreed by Jayson. They've tried Benard, a drummer of an amateur band "SAGUPA ng Malabon", member of Malabon Musicians Alliance(covering NU Metal and Hard Core) as drummer but after after a week, Bernard told the band that he will undergo an on the job training so they've searched another drum player. On Aril 2010, Miguel Mayo joined the band as suggested by Jayson and as a package , Miguel convinced Judel Velasquez to play drums. And ROj suggester Dice to play keyboard and hire Jeff Lumuya, Noel's childhood friend to play as bass guitarist. THE RESURECTION The new line up was formed, Roj as VOcals, Jayson as Lead Guitarist, Miguel in Rhythm, Dice in Keyboard, Jeff in Bass, Judel in Drums. But to fix their genre miscompatibilities, they decided to play variety songs but jayson disagreed and as an addtional reason, Jayson will continue his job career, Roj played as Lead Guitarist and Vocalist as replacement to Jayson's position. On June 2010, Judel was incidentally transfered to Taguig City to continue studying and because of some bad habits. Miguel was very disappointed and caused him to lose his spirit in playing music. They've lost a drummer and a guitarist. Due to genre compatibilities of Roj, Jeff and Dice, they've decided to continue the band with Regine MOntecir as female vox and Apple Joi Nasayao(Roj's Girlfriend) to manage the band, but the pla with Regine was not pursued. On the month of July of 2010, Roj, by the use of Uzzap Chat, he met Eman Presto with the same interest of musical genres convinced him to join the band as a drum player. Eman Agreed and the quartet continued playing music with the genre where they are very interested. They started covering Iron Maiden and Megadeth songs such as The tropper, Judas be my guide,wasting Love, Symphony of Destruction, Fear of the Dark, FLight of Icarus, Tulisan, Symphony of Destruction, Halik ni Hudas, Mata ng Diyos", "Giyang", "A tout le Monde", "Nosi Balasi", and some other pinoy rock and slow rock such as Scorpions, Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Journey, etc. Fortunately, while Eman intruduced Alice in Chains music and the current line up worked. Roj used his skils in song writing, and the result, he wrote "The world is bleeding", "Lilith", "Huwad na Kristo", "The Luckiest Woman", "Begging for Freedom, Crying For Mercy", "Toleration", "Heavens Below", "What you've done is what you'll get". And those songs are still in progress. Roj said.. "Im still working on it". Currents The band was currently doing good and getting stronger and they decided to plant up tune into the songs which was written by Roj. Unfortunately, Eman Presto was unable to give his full time to the group, but the rest of the group considered the decision of Eman and they hired a back up drummer which was Mr.Genesis Ragandan of Sagupa ng Malabon and Sandstraw. Then they had some successful gigs by the help of Malabon Musicians Alliance guided by Mr. Gary Ignacioof SID ,alamid before; and then Jaypee Carpio ,former bassist of FERILLUM came back to malabon and Roj asked him to rejoin the group as Lead Guitarist and Jaypee agreed. The group decided to apply on some bars in manila and their first audition was on Pink kubo bar and restaurant on malabon and it became successful and from that time they began to improve their stage performances and they started to get a book call from some customers outside the city to play for their occasions. The group will promise that they will resurrect the rock scene on the country together with their brotherly bands, SAGUPA ng malabon, sandstraw, Tryst Emerge and Glorias Bastards,Pointbreak Band, all proud members of Malabon Musicians Alliance.

Ferrum → Ferrum (disambiguation) –Because the element Iron is a primary topic and it must be redirected at that article instead. j3j3j3...pfH0wHz 05:04, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

• Why do you think it "must" be redirected? The disambiguation page seems reasonable; it's unlikely most readers would look for iron by looking up "ferrum". Powers ^T 12:53, 21 July 2011 (UTC)
• It seems that the format looks like Iron is the primary topic of this article. Look at the article itself. j3j3j3...pfH0wHz 02:04, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
  • That's because we often define a term in the lead sentence of the disambiguation page. That doesn't make the definition the primary topic. Powers ^T 12:35, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
• Oppose in accordance with LtPowers. Disambiguation is reasonable here. Arbitrarily0 ^(talk) 01:21, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
