The track progresses like a saunter through this depicted Tor-couver environment, one where our protagonist(s) wave at familiar faces and past struggles as they walk on by. “A lot I’m carrying, a lot on my hands… express faith for your breath and acknowledge the land,” Shad expresses in his respective verse, balancing moments of gratitude with an acknowledgment of their own battles.

KIMMORTAL has always existed at the intersection of vulnerability and innovation, weaving personal history with collective struggle. As a queer Filipinx artist, their work is an unapologetic exploration of healing and identity, with Shoebox (2023) standing as a bold reflection on intergenerational trauma and joy. With syncs in The L Word: Generation Q and Season 19 of Apex Legends, KIMMORTAL’s personable sound continues to resonate far beyond the studio.

“Sunniest of Days” builds on this, blending melancholy with a quiet optimism, and reflecting their ongoing ability to transform sorrow into something radically hopeful. As they prepare to release their forthcoming EP via Odd Doll Records, KIMMORTAL’s voice and story remains one of the most compelling in contemporary music.
