No Lore, the trailblazing all-girl electronic alt-pop band renowned for merging music, art, and poetry, is set to release their final single—a breathtaking reimagining of the OPM classic “Magbalik.” Originally performed by Callalily, this beloved anthem takes on a bold, modern identity as No Lore transforms it into a mesmerizing alt-pop masterpiece.
Far from being just a cover, No Lore’s version of “Magbalik” is a tribute to innovation and nostalgia. Layered with arpeggiated synths, taiko-inspired percussion, and ethereal vocal harmonies, the track offers a fresh yet emotionally resonant experience. Collaborating with Lem Belaro of Callalily, the band breathes new life into the timeless hit while preserving its heartfelt core. The addition of Tita Halaman’s stirring spoken poetry in the final moments adds an intimate and poignant touch, making it a powerful farewell statement.
Since their debut, No Lore has carved a distinctive path in the music scene with their genre-defying sound and evocative storytelling. Their tracks “Paumanhin,” “A Leo,” and “Lou” featured in the Netflix film Sleep With Me, while their single “For All I Know Is Love” showcased their advocacy for stray animals. With a discography that includes an EP titled Outlines and a string of well-loved singles, No Lore has captivated audiences across Metro Manila with their electrifying performances and bold artistry.
“Magbalik” invites fans and newcomers to rediscover a classic through No Lore’s groundbreaking vision, bridging the legacy of OPM’s past with its evolving future. As this single marks the end of an era, it stands as a testament to No Lore’s creative achievements, transformative journey, and the lasting bond they’ve cultivated with their community.
