No Lore’s last song as a revival of OPM Classic “Magbalik”

No Lore, the trailblazing all-girl electronic alt-pop band known for blending music, art, and poetry, is set to release their final single, a stunning reimagining of the OPM classic “Magbalik.” Originally performed by Callalily, the beloved anthem gets a bold and modern twist as No Lore transforms it into a hypnotic alt-pop masterpiece.

“Magbalik” goes beyond being just a cover. Infused with arpeggiated synths, taiko-inspired percussion, and ethereal vocal textures, the track seamlessly balances nostalgia with fresh innovation. With the collaboration of Lem Belaro of Callalily, No Lore breathes new life into this timeless song while honoring its emotional essence. The addition of Tita Halaman’s stirring spoken poetry in the final moments brings an intimate, poignant layer, making it a heartfelt farewell.

Since their debut, No Lore has made waves in the music scene with their unique fusion of genres and evocative storytelling. Their songs “Paumanhin,” “A Leo,” and “Lou” became part of the soundtrack for the Netflix movie “Sleep With Me.” They also released “For All I Know Is Love,” a heartfelt single dedicated to stray animals, showcasing their advocacy through music. Their discography includes several singles and an EP titled “Outlines.” Over the years, the band has graced major stages across Metro Manila, captivating audiences with their bold artistry and dynamic performances.

No Lore’s “Magbalik” invites fans and new listeners to rediscover a classic in a groundbreaking way, bridging the past and the future of OPM music. As “Magbalik” marks the end of an era, it serves as a testament to No Lore’s remarkable journey, creative achievements, and the lasting connection they’ve built with their community.
