Excerpts from "Flame Alive" (liner notes, Rivermaya: "Isang Ugat, Isang Dugo"):
"Time passed, one thing led to another, and before we knew it, we were going to re-record some of the most precious Pinoy alternative gems. A collection of stunning songs - from a time when we were just discovering the beauty and power of creating music - by artists that made us dream to start our own bands."
