You know them as MYX’s favorite band of 2007. You’ve sung along to their hit singles “Jeepney” and “Manila High”. What you might not have heard about Kala, however, is that they’re also aliens. Well, they’re sorta aliends, what with the uber-cool technology and their spiritual “one-ness” with their extra-dimensional selves (not-to-mention the rest of all that is good in the universe). After coming across the enigmatic entity known as TALA, you wouldn’t exactly call them human anymore. Plus, they get to drive around halfway across the known multiverse in a snazzy space vessel.
To combat the Parapaps, TALA chose a Filipino band to carry her message of universal light and love to the people, bringing them light years through space (to the Pleiades stellar cluster) and reality (to a plane of existence called the Fifth Immanence) by merging them with their parallel selves from that universe. Then again, it will take more that just a radical change of world-view for them to be able to liberate mankind from Parapap control.
Episode 1
Brought to a higher plane of existenc, the Manila-based band Kala trains for a war against an alien race that has secretly enslaved humanity. Having faced their own weaknesses and overcoming them, they head home to begin their mission.
Episode 2
Returning to Earth from the fifth immanence, the Pulis Pangkalawakan recall the tragedy of their nemesis’ downfall
and test the abilities that they will use to bring down the Parapap’s hidden dark empire.
