The single is taken from their upcoming third studio album ‘Defiance’ set to be released later this month (Mar 25) on Rottweiler Records. Their latest single is accompanied by a music video shot by filmmaker/photographer Sai Ratan.

R.A.I.D, who came together in 2016 and currently comprises Issac on vocals, guitarist Abishek Allapanda, bassist Sam Jaba and drummer Bobbin Jaydev, have released two albums so far. The Strong Survive was out in 2018, followed by their sophomore record Imperium in 2019.
