The song is their second release, following “In My Prison,” after former vocalist Unique Salonga left the band to go solo.
The music video’s release came as a surprise to fans of the band, garnering attention from netizens with over 2,500 retweets and 6,500 likes on Twitter and over 80,000 views on Youtube, as of writing.
The trio consisting of Blaster Silonga, Zild Benitez and Badjao De Castro is known for their songs “Mundo,” “Ilaw sa Daan,” “Hey Barbara,” among others.
Despite losing a member of the band, IV of Spades continues to rise in the music scene as they recently bagged four awards at the 31st Awit Awards: Music Video of the Year, Record of the Year, Favorite Group Artist and Best Performance by a Group Recording Artist.
They were nominated at the MTV Europe Music Awards 2018 in the Best Southeast Asian Act category.
IV of Spades is also heading to Hong Kong this November to perform at the three-day Clockenflap Festival alongside Interpol, David Byrne, Khalid and many more. /cbb
