From Davao City and composed of Ben, Joshua and Jan Mark, Precal Dropouts was formed in January 2020. All are high school students with ages from 15 to 17. Joshua introduced shoegaze to the rest of the band in between classes. Their sound was inspired by Slowdive, Ride, My Bloody Valentine, Deafheaven, Ringo Deathstarr and Moscow Olympics.

From the Shoegaze Pilipinas compilation, Alimbukad:
ALIMBÚKAD (translated as "in full bloom") is Volume 2 of the two-part shoegaze and dream pop series from Shoegaze Pilipinas. This collection broadens its sound and reach from Metro Manila to Pampanga; from Cebu to Dumaguete; from Cagayan de Oro and Davao all the way to the UAE, Oman and Qatar as we exhibit the spectrum of influence of beautiful noise on Filipino bands all over the archipelago and the Middle East. A diverse mixture of sonic experiences, Alimbukad showcases a variety of bands from different musical backgrounds spread across the country and beyond but united by the common love for shoegaze and dream pop.
Compiled with assistance from Romel Chua Amoncio and Cherie Ilagan. Mastered by Jerome Velasco. Flowers In Bloom Photography, Design, and Art Direction by Paul Guadalupe of Guadakomeda Art Direction And Design.
