"Puso" is the first single from the album and is frequently heard after games during the UAAP Broadcast on Studio 23 as it was selected as the theme song for season 71. Their 2nd single "Di Na Mababawi", marked the band's departure from the standard full band rock formula, opting for simpler instrumentation. They then released the repackaged version of this album along with the 3rd single Ayt. The new version of the song featured Gary Valenciano on vocals and synths. This is essentially the band's first dance song. Sponge Cola then released their 4th single Wala Kang Katulad and then released their 5th single Makapiling Ka.
On 2009, a repackaged album of their 3rd album was released with a 2nd disc with 4 new and updated songs.[4]
