We Are Imaginary releases music video for ‘Are We There Yet?’

MANILA — Filipino indie-rock band We Are Imaginary has released the official music video for “Are We There Yet?,” the latest single from its self-titled album released in January 2026.

Directed by Jam Lasin of Cream Flower, the video features the band performing together, interspersed with candid moments and visual references to its 18-year history in the Philippine independent music scene.

The video also pays tribute to the group’s former members and collaborators, whose contributions helped shape its music over the years.

“Keeping the fire burning is another hard choice, especially in a fickle scene and as a band that doesn’t really follow trends,” the band said in a 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 project marks the band’s second collaboration with Lasin, following the music video for “Object of My Affliction.” The group said it has long admired Cream Flower’s visual style and entrusted the director and his team with translating its vision for the new video.

“Are We There Yet?” was among the early compositions guitarist Khalid Tanji wrote for the band’s album project before the pandemic. The track retains the driving rhythm and post-punk guitar sound of its original demo.

The vinyl production was made possible through Eikon Records PH’s Rick Olivares and Joey Santos of Floppy Disk.

“We get giddy like schoolchildren having our music in tangible form,” said Ahmad Tanji of We Are Imaginary.

The band plans to return to the studio following its album campaign, with new material in development and hopes of releasing new music in 2027. It also plans to perform in more cities in the Philippines and abroad.

The music video for “Are We There Yet?” is available on We Are Imaginary’s official YouTube channel.
