Last Updated on November 12, 2026 by Dennis Kozevnikoff
IV OF SPADES have released their latest single, “Susundan,” while announcing their third studio album, TROPICAL DREAM, scheduled to arrive on December 9, 2026, via Sony Music Philippines.
The new alt-pop track blends nostalgic rock influences with bright, breezy melodies, offering listeners an upbeat sound that contrasts with its emotional subject matter.
Released on November 11, “Susundan” marks another chapter for the Filipino alternative band following their successful North American tour and growing recognition in the Philippine music industry.
“Susundan” Explores Love and Romantic Longing
Written by Blaster Silonga and composed by IV OF SPADES, “Susundan” explores the emotional complexities of pursuing someone who remains out of reach.
Drawing inspiration from retro pop and 1990s alternative rock, the track features a warm, relaxed arrangement reminiscent of carefree summer days.
Beneath its playful sound, however, lies a story about devotion, vulnerability, and the difficulty of letting go.
“Susundan expresses the feeling of wanting to be close to someone, even when it seems impossible,” the band shared in a press statement.
The group also explained that the song explores both the excitement and uncertainty of romantic pursuit, acknowledging how love can lead people to make unexpected decisions.
By combining lighthearted musical elements with a more vulnerable narrative, IV OF SPADES present a track that balances humor, emotional honesty, and nostalgic songwriting.
A Colorful Music Video Brings the Song to Life
The official “Susundan” music video embraces the song’s playful atmosphere through colorful sets and whimsical visual elements.
Directed by Kris Cazin, the video features IV OF SPADES performing among theatrical cutouts and children’s theater-inspired props.
Rather than adopting a serious approach to the song’s emotional themes, the band highlights humor, spontaneity, and youthful energy.
The visuals complement the single’s upbeat arrangement while offering fans another glimpse into the group’s distinctive creative style.
The official music video is available through IV OF SPADES’ YouTube channel.
TROPICAL DREAM Arrives December 9, 2026
“Susundan” will appear on the band’s upcoming third studio album, TROPICAL DREAM, scheduled for release on December 9, 2026.
The song follows two previously released singles from the project, “Isang Pag-Ibig” and “Rollercoaster.”
Together, the three tracks offer an early look at the musical direction of the forthcoming record.
The new album follows IV OF SPADES’ 2025 release Andalucia, which marked an important chapter in the band’s comeback.
With TROPICAL DREAM arriving just over a year later, the group continues its creative momentum through new recordings and performances.
IV OF SPADES Continue Their Successful Comeback
The announcement comes after a particularly active period for IV OF SPADES.
Following their reunion in 2025, the band released Andalucia, returned to major live performances, and expanded their touring activities.
In 2026, the group completed concerts across the Philippines and toured the United States and Canada.
Their comeback has also brought recognition from the Philippine music industry.
At the 39th Awit Awards, Andalucia earned Album of the Year, while the band’s single “Aura” won Song of the Year.
According to the latest Sony Music press release, Andalucia has accumulated more than 220 million Spotify streams.
These achievements reflect the band’s continued popularity among longtime listeners and a growing audience discovering their music.
Where to Listen to “Susundan”
“Susundan” is now available on digital music streaming platforms worldwide through Sony Music Entertainment.
Listeners can also watch the official music video on the band’s YouTube channel.
With the December 9 release of TROPICAL DREAM approaching, the latest single gives fans another opportunity to experience the band’s evolving musical direction.
For IV OF SPADES, “Susundan” combines the familiar sounds of retro-inspired alternative music with a more playful approach to expressing love and longing.
