Even though you try to fight it and try to change, you can always find yourself fighting these demons over and over&#8230;and that&#8217;s ok.&#8221;<\/em><br><br>The\u00a0Pedro Bello-directed video was inspired by contemporary horror and paranormal activity, and personifies anxiety as a character. Adames further explains,\u00a0<em>&#8220;The aesthetic of horror in the contemporary world of cameras felt like an exciting way to portray anxiety in a music video&#8230; our generation grew up on websites like &#8216;Creepy Pasta&#8217; and stories like\u00a0&#8216;el silbon&#8217; (a folkloric Venezuelan demon).\u00a0Our parents would tell us horror stories that actually tell tales of human nature disguised as these entities.&#8221;<\/em><br><br>Despite the darker connotations of the song, Jaialai&#8217;s main message is that we&#8217;re human and feel emotions that we should recognize.\u00a0<em>&#8220;This is not an easy process and it usually takes time&#8230; once it appears, it doesn&#8217;t completely go away, but we have to understand is how to live with it and cope with it.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2018As Sweet As I Was\u2019 EP details<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>For Today<\/em> is the final single from the anticipated EP, following the release of the explosive <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=vmxLNHGu4XE&amp;feature=youtu.be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Vesuvius<\/a><\/em> and the acclaimed, jazz-fused, <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2cqdy7K6PRs&amp;feature=youtu.be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Victor\u2019s Belt<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/7DCFDC6E-894B-49B3-BCE7-8F8CCF116D94.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/7DCFDC6E-894B-49B3-BCE7-8F8CCF116D94.png?resize=583%2C583\" alt=\"As Sweet As I Was EP cover artwork\" class=\"wp-image-35864\" width=\"583\" height=\"583\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/7DCFDC6E-894B-49B3-BCE7-8F8CCF116D94.png?w=550 550w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/7DCFDC6E-894B-49B3-BCE7-8F8CCF116D94.png?resize=300%2C300 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/7DCFDC6E-894B-49B3-BCE7-8F8CCF116D94.png?resize=150%2C150 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 583px) 100vw, 583px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018<strong>As Sweet As I Was\u2019 track listing<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/18kU5trcKqt8SyraPS5dugpj-_Th-jsBP\/view?usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1 For Today<br>2 Backseat Driver<br>3 Casablanca<br>4 Vesuvius<br>5 Victor&#8217;s Belt<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Miami psych-dream-pop quartet\u00a0Jaialai\u00a0released For Today lifted from\u00a0upcoming EP,\u00a0\u2018As Sweet As I Was,\u2019 due\u00a0March 12\u00a0via\u00a0Super Music Group.\u00a0You can check out the video for the latest single <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"http:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=35861\" title=\"Jaialai share new single + video \u2018For Today\u2019\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":35862,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[22,23,28,29,30,5812],"tags":[9876,395,9867,9875,3849],"class_list":["post-35861","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-guitar-rock","category-indie","category-music","category-music-video","category-new-release","category-shoegaze","tag-as-sweet-as-i-was","tag-dream-pop","tag-for-today","tag-jaialai","tag-psych"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/0B85E2A5-6810-4C54-B52C-9657C3683D1B-scaled.jpeg?fit=2560%2C1440","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2B2TV-9kp","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":25668,"url":"http:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=25668","url_meta":{"origin":35861,"position":0},"title":"Divisionists release &#8216;Dream Landscape&#8217;
