Identity Crisis - Formed by Resty Cornejo in 1986, they became one of the pioneering alternative bands in the Philippines. Their signature sound, catchy melodies, gothic outfits and mysterious identities has made the band an underground favorite garnering fans from all over the country. Releasing their first album in 1987, “Tale of Two”, has reshaped Philippine music. From appearing on TV variety shows to performing live concerts nationwide, Identity Crisis, was nominated in the prestigious ALIW Awards for Best New Artist.

Their second album released in 1991, “Water Came Running”, earned a tremendous amount of respect from their musical colleagues, mainly for the bands “ahead of their time” songwriting and arrangements, which until this very day, still sounds fresh from the studios. After appearing in several compilation albums, Identity Crisis, packed up their instruments and called it a day. Several producers have approached the members, hoping to spark a reunion concert but there are no immediate plans. Currently the members of Identity Crisis are involved in their personal careers in the field of architecture, culinary, the airline industry, broadcasting and information technology. In 2006, Rivermaya, released an all-cover album containing songs from the 80's, in which two (2) of Identity Crisis' songs, My Sanctuary and Sumigaw, Umawit ka, were featured. Identity Crisis, to this very day, is considered a major and important influence in the alternative and underground music scene in the Philippines. Their record label is Dyna Records Philippines (1986-1991).

Resty Interview.jpg


According to Resty Cornejo's Interview (See Tempo June 29, 2019):
"Lenny is a natural composer.Her pop music sensibilities, great melodies and riffs were the backbone of Identity Crisis's music."
"Eventually, we decided to add a bit of progressive rock to our music as an experiment. I was, at the time, influenced by Rush and Yes"
"We were also looking towards exploring ethnic themes, much like the works of Penpen and Asin."

After they disbanded 1992...
"At that point, it was like the end for me. I tried jamming a few times with some buddies but I lost my passion for music. I was really devastated when the band ended. My love for music came back only years after."
"For the rest of the band, some pusued the same path (Abaya and Llapitan joined Lokal Brown in the 1990's before going on to form Mariya's Mistress). I totally lost contact with them, literally. We re-united as friends again only in the mid-2000's."
"I have been living in Hong Kong since 1993, working as a design architect."
