Wickermoss releases new single 'Nang Walang Dahilan'

OPM band Wickermoss is back with another new track, 'Nang Walang Dahilan.'

The angsty love song was penned by guitarist Rigil Borromeo four years prior to its release.

"'Nang Walang Dahilan,' nasulat ko nung first week ng lockdown, March 2020."

"Sinulat ko siya specifically for Wickermoss na nabuo after four year pa."

Vocalist Allen Lucas added, "Kwento ng friend ni Rigil, nung iniwan siya ng girlfriend niya nang walang dahilan. Walang closure, masakit kasi may relasyon na matagal tapos iniwan nang maraming questions unanswered."

"Sa mga taong na-experience nila 'yung ganitong situation, you'll feel less alone through our song."

"Challenging kasi nung naisulat siya, pandemic pa so wala kaming time na mag-record so after four years na lang siya nabuo."

Guitarist Roger Alcantara shared, "Sa technical aspect, time talaga 'yung challenge kasi may part diyan na talagang mahirap tugtugin."

Founded by Reiman Gesmundo (guitars) and Roger Alcantara (bass), Wickermoss captured the hearts of fans with their melancholic sound and an eclectic mix of various influences such as pop, folk, jazz, and progressive rock.

In 2023, Wickermoss reunited with AltG Records after 18 years. Roger described the journey and changes their band has undergone through the years.

"Nag-iba na ang dynamics ng songwriting, siguro dahil 'yun mga sulat nila iba sa mga dati naming gawa ni Reiman (Gesmundo), so nag-iiba rin 'yung songwriting process, pati 'yung mga kanta nag-iiba rin. So it's exciting, I'm looking forward to see what's coming next kasi kung ngayon pa lang nag-iiba na 'yung tunog paano pa kaya 'yung mga susunod."

The group also looks forward to celebrating the 20th anniversary of their breakthrough hit, "Falling Leaves" which came out in 2005. "Sa ngayon, focused lang kami muna sa single, to release it, promote it. Next year, it's been 20 years since 'yung release ng "Falling Leaves" so baka pwede natin gawan ng something new. Iniisip naming i-rehash. Para rin maging sa amin na since bagong lineup na ito," Roger said.
