The 2018 film, starred by JM de Guzman and Rhian Ramos, talks about the story of a man named Lio who is suffering from a &#8220;face blindness.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Fans of the indie ban expressed how happy and excited they were about the released, with some thanking UDD for giving them their highly anticipated wish.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">On Twitter, netizen @farfrommulan also greeted the band a Happy New Year, adding, &#8220;And not to be dramatic, but I teared up with this news.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Netizen @caladashh, meanwhile, tagged her friend @katsushiii on UDD&#8217;s announcement and said she fell asleep while she listens to <i>Anino. <\/i>Replying to her tweet, her friend @katsushiii invited her friend to come over the band&#8217;s gig if they will have one in Quezon City.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">&#8220;I need to hear these songs live!!!!!!&#8221; she wrote.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Netizen @alaenadenise cannot contain her happiness as she can now stream <i>Anino<\/i>, the song she has been waiting for almost four years already.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The release of the formal studio version of <i>Anino, <\/i>which he has been listening for years; Twitter user @random_almonte even called such development as a &#8220;biggest blessing&#8221; for him this new year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Social media user @theNealCutter, on the other hand, shared that he is usually &#8220;articulate&#8221; with his points and critiques on why he likes certain songs or not &#8212; but it was different this time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">&#8220;For this moment I&#8217;m just speechless. Up Dharma Down really did that,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Also known for some of their emotionally-charged songs, the indie band, of course, was successful in making their fans sing along with their new tracks while having their hearts broken.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">&#8220;Up Dharma Down really made a song called &#8216;Crying Season&#8217; for me &amp; my <i>iyakin <\/i>(crybaby) friends huh,&#8221; said netizen @bet_zayb.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Netizen @janrendon, meanwhile, said UDD is the ultimate &#8220;dart <i>sa <\/i>(in the) heart&#8221; type of Original Pinoy Music (OPM).<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><i>&#8220;Napaka-babaw<\/i> and surface level <i>lang ng mga <\/i>hit <i>na<\/i> new OPM songs in that category compared to Armi&#8217;s [Millare] writing process,&#8221; he wrote.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Twitter user @pitmndza jokingly blamed the band for breaking his heart on the very first day of 2019. Quoting a line from the song <i>Anino, <\/i>the netizen said, <i>&#8220;Heto ako nakatayo sa iyong harapan. Heto ako handa ang lahat nna masaktan. MASAYA KA TEH!!! HAHAHA <\/i>(Here I am standing in front of you. I&#8217;m here ready to get hurt. Are you happy!!!! HAHAHA)<i>.&#8221;<\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Echoing the same sentiment, netizen @ComeBaquiToMe, tweeted, &#8220;NEW YEAR <i>NA<\/i> NEW YEAR <i>TAPOS MANANAKIT KAYO WALA NAMANG GANYANAN <\/i>UP DHARMA DOWN (It is New Year but you are hurting us. Do not be like that, Up Dharma Down).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">UDD has been giving its fans all the feels since it was formed in 2004. In a span of 14 years, the indie band has already released three albums entitled <i>Fragmented, Bipolar, <\/i>and <i>Capacities<\/i> under independent record label Terno Recordings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fans of Filipino band Up Dharma Down (UDD) greeted the first day of 2019 with a big surprise:\u00a0 UDD just &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":33,"featured_media":196107,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-196106","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","category-entertainment-ph","mauthors-joanna-belle-deala","mauthors-philippine-canadian-inquirer"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/196106","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/33"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=196106"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/196106\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/196107"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=196106"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=196106"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=196106"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
