INFLUENCE includes radio-released singles such as "Gone" and, their most famous release to date, "Soul Searching", which won the award as Best Song of the Year in the NU107 Rock Awards 2003. It was the sound in this album that clearly defined the steps that Urbandub would start to take. Jerros continued to record tracks with band, but left sometime in 2003 when he decided to leave for undisclosed reasons. With the release of their second effort, INFLUENCE on Lighter Records (Backyard Studio), Urbandub took on a new form, changing their sound with a new drummer (From Jed Honrado to Jerros Dolino). Though the album's production quality was rough, it emerged as a successor to the scene that dominated independent radio in the mid 1990. Birth is raw and heavy, with obvious influences of Deftones and other experimental rock bands. Although only a modest success at the time, the album managed to earn the band some degree of notoriety within Cebu City. The following singles from the album included "Boy", "Give", and "Would You Go".
