Helmed by director Jam Lasin, the music video showcases the band’s refreshed chemistry while paying tribute to the people and milestones that have defined their journey.
MANILA, Philippines — Celebrated Filipino indie-rock outfit We Are Imaginary has released the official music video for “Are We There Yet?,” the newest single off their 2026 self-titled record. Helmed by Cream Flower’s Jam Lasin, the visual shows the group in their natural element, blending live jamming sessions, behind-the-scenes clips, and nostalgic nods that honor their 18-year run as a staple in the local independent scene.
The video also reflects on the ups and downs of being in a band, paying homage to the former members and collaborators whose lasting impact continues to shape their sound.
“Keeping the fire burning is another hard choice, especially in a fickle scene and as a band that doesn’t really follow trends,” We Are Imaginary shares in a press statement. “We won’t be here without our past members and labels, so hopefully the music video sends a message that all we feel is gratitude.”
The visual marks the band’s second creative partnership with Lasin, following their previous work on “Object of My Affliction.” Longtime fans of Cream Flower’s distinct style, We Are Imaginary relied on the director and his team to bring their creative vision to life on screen.
“Are We There Yet?” follows as the newest single off the group’s well-received self-titled record, which dropped in January 2026. Originally penned by guitarist Khalid Tanji as one of the first tracks for their pre-pandemic album sessions, the song preserves the energetic drive and post-punk guitar textures of its early demo.
To celebrate the video’s release, the band is hosting a vinyl and merch launch on November 8 at Saguijo, complete with live sets from guest acts. The event will also see the rollout of We Are Imaginary’s very first official tote bag alongside the new vinyl pressing.
Brought to life with the help of Rick Olivares of Eikon Records PH and producer Joey Santos of Floppy Disk, the vinyl represents what the band views as an enduring physical mark of their musical journey. “We get giddy like schoolchildren having our music in tangible form,” shares band member Ahmad Tanji.
Once the current album cycle wraps up, the group intends to head back into the recording studio. New tracks are already in the works for a targeted 2027 release, paired with upcoming tour dates across additional Philippine cities and international stops.
Watch the music video on We Are Imaginary’s official YouTube channel, officially dropped on November 6, 2026, at 12:00 a.m.
