Please vote for which song you think is better! If you haven't already, make sure to listen to both songs under the read more before voting.

Propaganda is encouraged, but please do not be negative towards the other song in doing so. This is meant to be a fun tournament! If you write propaganda in the text of your reblog (rather than in the tags), I will likely reblog it!

2NE1 proved that they really are the best during round 1 match 61, when they beat Cherry Bullet's Love So Sweet! And Bigbang fans must've been Blue after they lost to 2ne1 in round 2!

I Am The Best is 2NE1's most viewed MV! This song is the definition of iconic, from the catchy verses to the legendary chorus and the bold styling of the MV!

Shinee received a huge Wave of support in round 1 match 64 against Ateez! Then they proved that you don't need a newer song to be Hip when they won against Mamamoo in round 2!

Shinee nation! Lucifer is Shinee's 2nd most viewed MV, and it was submitted twice to the poll! This iconic song is a bit dark and edgy but is still a huge bop even now!

Like Perfume You Wear, I Linger

Drabble inspired by Olivia Rodrigo’s songs obsessed (stream it because it’s good and the MV is funny) and lacy.

Part 2 of Rotten Petals, Rotten Feelings but you don't really need to read it to understand this. Gwyn's POV because in the end, it’s always the girls that suffers when a man is emotionally unavailable.

Words: 656

Gwyn was aware her obsession was unhealthy. She was ashamed to admit how much she thought about that girl she never even met, and she felt guilty in knowing so many personal and useless things concerning her person. She couldn’t stop though, every new, futile detail like a drug. By now, she had found out her star sign and her blood type, she had seen every movie she had starred in, staring at her impeccable and smart characters like she wanted to get hurt, and visited a couple places she had been to.

If she told anyone without providing context, they would think she was enamoured. She even read the books she cited in her captions on Instagram, but she never dared to hit follow, because she was her boyfriend’s ex something. They had never been together, they had only kissed once, but they had slept in the same bed, so she was sure he was, at some point, in love. If she had been a man, or if she had been into girls, she probably would have too: Elain Archeron was a talented, dazzling starlet, with eyes as pretty as the daisies she cultivated, lips plump like ripe cherries, and hips as sexy as Brigitte Bardot’s. Gwyn had tried to rationalize, to tell herself she was just a person and not a goddess made of angel dust that descended on the Hell they called Earth just to get on her nerves, but she failed, and her rotten mind loathed her because she seemed the greatest thing to ever exist.

She despised her jealous eyes and how hard they fell for her, but she had come up with a code name to talk about her with her best friend nonetheless, in case Azriel accidentally stumbled into one of their chats. Lacy, or as Emerie liked to say, Lacy skin-like-puff-pastry. The poor girl didn’t deserve all this bitterness – she even spoke kindly of her, her compliments like bullets on Gwyn’s skin. She knew she was butthurt only because she didn’t deserve her sweetness, and it was all her unresolved issues’ fault, but she could swear she still felt the ghost of her body when she was sleeping in Azriel’s bed, and every time he called her name in the morning, she held her breath, fearing to hear the one of his previous lover.

Truth be told, everyone described her boyfriend as uncharacteristically besotted, and knowing they had both moved on and they surprisingly didn’t talk anymore, she should’ve stopped worrying, but they also kept repeating how Elain was the life of every fucking party, and they kept remarking how easy-going and never controlling she was, and it was inevitable that she was still friend with his friends – two of them were with her sisters – but their chatter unknowingly made her upset and unable to get over it.

“Do you ever think about her?” she had asked one night, on the way home, to her unassuming boyfriend. Azriel had taken a fraction of a second too long to answer, and Gwyn, stomach all in knots, had quickly told him that it was fine if that was the case, that she didn’t care, but the reality was she wanted to know everything, if he regretted never having pushed the relationship further, if he ever imagined a future with her, whether he had idealized what they had and if she would ever be enough. It was taking over her life, and she started to see her beautiful enemy wherever she went, the sweetest torture she could bear.

“You’re losing it,” her sister had told her one day, when she had found her stalking her TikTok page for the umpteenth time. Maybe it was true, but she once had the only thing she wanted, and even if it was Gwyn and not Elain who was Azriel’s girlfriend now, something told her he had left her a piece of his heart forever.

[struggle-but-its-all-ocean-floor]

The bts timeline has been a dumpster fire what with seven and the payola allegations and the rumors of an all-english jjk1, so instead of that I'm curious about your thoughts on new jeans and their new single (sorry if you've talked about this, but I tried searching your tags and couldn't find it). Also, since you seem to listen to a lot of Kpop, who are your favorite bg and ggs outside of bts? I've personally always really liked mamamoo

Yeah, I don't know much about payola, but every song that does well on Spotify is accused of payola, right? And this is Jungkook, who joined hands with Scooter Braun and is breaking all kinds of records now. The accusations were inevitable... Also, if you're curious about my thoughts on JJK1 being all in English, I had an ask about that.

I love that you're asking me about kpop! Thank you! On New Jeans, if you look up my posts about them (I've only written 1 or maybe 2), you'll see I sort of boycott them... Maybe it's hypocritical because all labels suck, and Min Hee-jin is not the only predatory, melomaniac asshole out there, but she loves to hear herself talk more than most. And NJs are not the only groups with very young members, but very few groups have all minor members when they debut. Also, people's obsession with a bunch of teenage girls is a bit weird to me... I just don't want to listen to their music. When I had no idea who they were, I watched their Attention MV, and the sensual RnB vibes and the way those girls were filmed seemed inappropriate to me. I didn't fall in love with the song either. I've heard snippets of their other songs, because you can't escape them in kpop, and I've heard a NJs cover more than once, but I don't listen to them, sorry. Their style isn't really my style though. I like fun kpop tracks, not really chill ones for the most part.

I only listen to kpop really. I love kpop. I love that I can't understand the lyrics when they're shitty, I love how fun and playful the concepts can be, I love that there aren't as many boring breakup songs (Korean pop is a different story), I love the dancing, I love that the songs are fun and "noisy". I mostly listen to ggs. I find them the most exciting, refreshing, and also relaxing. I love girls so it's natural! (Listening to bgs isn't anti-feminist though lmao). My favorite ggs right now are Twice, IVE, and LSF in that order, but I love Twice and IVE's music a lot more than LSF's. I like Sakura a lot though. I used to love Itzy but haven't been vibing with them much lately, but they're still one of my favorites. I really like NMIXX! JYPE is my favorite company musically. I'm a bit done with Stayc right now, after the curry song thing, but I like them too. These are mostly new groups haha. I like Apink and Exid too. I like Fifty Fifty and Aespa, I listen to some KEP1ER1. When a group I know, even if by name, has a comeback, I usually listen to them. When a group debuts, I try to give them a shot too. This new group who debuted, Kiss of Life, are killing it. I also listen casually to RV (not recently though), TRI.BE, Billlie, Weeekly, Secret Number, Cherry Bullet, WJSN, Viviz, Woo!ah!, etc... I like Eunbi, Yuri, and more recently Yena, from IZ*ONE too, though they are soloists.

As for bgs... I don't listen to them a lot, but there are tons of amazing bg songs that are some of the best kpop songs (excluding BTS). I like TXT and SKZ the most, but haven't vibed with SKZ recently. I like Enhypen's tts and some Exo, I like recent Shinee. Recently, I loved PHarmony1's Jump, LUN8's Wild Heart, VAV's Designer, Treasure's Move, and even 8TURN's Excel... I listen to random songs from a lot of groups. I kinda like KARD but not some of their tts.

I don't listen to Mamamoo much, sorry! But what other groups do you like, I'm curious too! Thanks for the ask!!

[vitaminwaterreviews]

Hyuna - Attitude

Average score of 7.5, but I’m actually gonna round that down to 7.0. The songs were all far too short, this was much closer to a single album than an EP, and there wasn’t enough in the songs to justify calling it an EP either. Really it’s an intro and three songs. Extremely mediocre, I expect more from a kpop EP.

It’s amazing how much my image of Hyuna has been tainted by all of the online discourse against her. I don’t think she’s done anything morally wrong by dating this guy, so I didn’t expect my opinion of her music to be impacted so much. But it totally does seem to have affected me. That makes sense; I tend to like things that other people enjoy and are passionate about, so it makes sense that I would have my perception of things messed up by other people disliking those things.

Anyway. Enjoyed all of the songs, I’ll add a couple to my playlist probably. Hyuna’s back, I guess. But I also am kinda upset we didn’t get to hear her rap.

- Attitude

I did watch the performance video for this, like, a few months(?) ago at this point

She does seem to struggle with “r”s and “l”s

I really enjoy her singing voice, particularly when she’s breathy and high

7/10

Q&A

It’s tragic that this came out just a week or so after Cherry Bullet disbanded

The vibe is decent

Who’s the guy in this vid? Her actual boyfriend, or an actor?

They aren’t actually kissing so imma guess an actor

The song is kinda mid

I guess the chorus is nice, tropical house beat drop

Yeah okay, I like the second verse here a lot more than the first verse

Omg we’re halfway through the second song and finally we get a couple seconds of that iconic Hyuna rap voice

I will say, the MV fits the vibe of the song really well

Did she just cover his face while they’re driving a motorcycle??

Also they did in fact kiss, nice

8/10

Ah! (feat. GEMINI)

Mkay, we’re a bit funky here, maybe a bit of soul

Still, this is Not the rappy Hyuna voice that we know

This sounds kinda like Kiss of Life - Shhh lol

Oh hey here’s the feature, I’d forgotten about him

8/10, honestly I was jamming along the whole time

RSVP (feat. CHANGMO)

Very tropical vibes

Do you hear that bass? It’s like, really really deep plucks or something

Maybe that’s not even bass, it’s just so subtle in the mix

I dare say we’ll have an entire Hyuna EP where she has 2 seconds of rap

I guess because she’s having Changmo do all the rapping lol

7/10, fun, didn’t really go anywhere though

[ryuchaekkeuhyojeonsaejia]

With Cherry Bullet disbanding and Youjoung leaving BBGirls (Ryuna's FC since few months prior to Brave Girls' reverse run but I will still have Youjoung as her FC), now I'm looking for K-pop/C-pop girl groups who are good fit for Star Beam's future cbs (OT7 Oh My Girl is their main FC). I can accept old comebacks tho 😁

BASICS OF STAR BEAM

Age Range (as of 2024): 26-28 years old (Oldest Member is a 95 liner while the maknae is a 98 liner)

Concept: they are changing concepts (but they are known for their "cutie-sexy" concept)

Unlike today's idols, they don't have a fixed MV worldview... it's just basically like a "choose your own adventure" kinda lore

They are a 3rd Gen GG (debuted in 2017) and they just renewed their contracts last December 2023

Thanks for listening to my tonight's yappings 😅

Roundup: Freshest Releases

TWICE “Set Me Free”

TWICE is back with a 70′s disco sound, which is fine, but can’t compete with the catchy beat from “Moonlight Sunrise”, which I still have on repeat. What I disliked about this track were the unnecessary rap parts and the sudden switch off towards the end of the mv.

Nicole “Mysterious”

KARA’s Nicole has a new song out and it’s pretty good. I like her performance as well, although I’m not a big fan of the old-fashioned styling. Former G-Friend member Yuju also had a comeback.

Cherry Bullet “P.O.W!”

The beat mixes up quite often, especially the chorus goes in a crazy different direction, but it’s the best part of the song. The rap verses are just terrible. Defintiley a new direction for the group, who have been releasing generic songs for the most part.

[luvliedits]

:: cherry bullet icons 🍒

[like or rb if u save!]

[reveloser]

cherry bullet - love so sweet

[wickymicky]

god, pixy’s choreos are so fucking cool, this new The Moon choreo is great lol. i like the song too, it’s my favorite of the three pixy songs that ive heard so far, i can get into this lol. but yeah this choreo... theyre so charismatic... and that part with the pink haired member and the jacket? thats so creative lol

[best-kpop-song-tournament]

Please vote for which song you think is better! If you haven't already, make sure to listen to both songs under the read more before voting. Propaganda is encouraged, but please do not be negative in doing so. This is meant to be a fun tournament!

I Am The Best is 2NE1's most viewed MV! This song is the definition of iconic, from the catchy verses to the legendary chorus and the bold styling of the MV!

Love So Sweet is Cherry Bullet's 2nd most viewed MV! This is one of my top favorite kpop songs because it is such a great blend of cute and teen crush and it really stands out from other cute-type songs! (coming from a huge fan of that genre) The momentum is perfect too, the verses and prechorus are interesting but still lend well to the chorus, and the bridge builds up to Bora's high note and last part of the song so well! If you like cute songs this is literally THE cute song in my opinion

MOTS ON:E DVD Pt. 2

This package was released in September 2021 and covers the online concerts performances filmed on 201010 and 201011. There are 3 DVDs included in this package. The first 2 DVDs cover the actual concert in full from 201010. The 2nd DVD also includes the last part of that day 1 concert as well as day 2s solo stages. Disc 3 includes the merch and poster making film and VCR making film, the Rehersals and practice making films and the concert d-day making film. (300 minutes in total from all 3 DVDs.) You can find my post over the first 2 discs here. And Disc 3 is what I'll cover in this post. Reminder again that this is simply me bullet point talking about this as I go basically, like I'm reacting to a friend. Lol I'll also add here that I found a link on YouTube for the whole 3rd DVD as well that you can all watch. It only goes up to 360p but it's Still pretty good!

Disc 3

Merch and Poster Making Film:

The DVD opens with everyone's individual shoot in a backstage setting for their concert merch. Namjoon telling us about how sad he is that his cherry blossoms haven't bloomed yet on his tree. He is a precious soul. 🥺 NamKookMin in a unit. And so cute. Lol jikooks constant giggles and bickering and the way Jimin pinched JKs nipple so JK pinched his upper thigh and their constant touching. Lmfao Joonie asking to be saved 🤣 "who put me In a unit with these two" will always be so hysterical

They did their shoots for their poster in October 2019. They shot in front of different backdrops while standing in water and they looked so pretty. And then we of course have jikook posing separately in front of some of the backdrops and taking photos of each other for themselves. Lol very cute. And Hobi just watching them giggling.

And when they shot silhouette shots, Hobi asked if ARMY would be able to tell who was who and they started making guesses. And JK just goes "anyone would be able to tell Jimin is right there" 🥺 They did the next shoot in front of an all white backdrop. Lol Everyone teasing about their running poses and Tae taking a photo of Jins silly running pose to keep too 🤣 and everyone kept crashing into each other 😭🤣 and then the softest moment ever in their shoot on the sand. When the director asked JK to please relax his eyes a bit, Jimin goes "just a sec" and then gently makes eye contact with JK and rubs at his neck before JK does soften and then he goes "yeah" and they get back to shooting. Like omg?? Jimin softened him right up and JK clearly loves him so much. And that just felt like SUCH a moment?! One that is so underrated.

VCR Making Film:

VCR was filmed sometime in early 2020, according to their hair colors/styles. JinKook immediately bickering and play fighting and kicking each other. Lmao as always. It's their love language. And Yoongi being so flabbergasted yet endeared by Jins craziness. Lol JK saying that he hopes that even when Jin hyung is 60 he would play around with him like that 😭🥺

During a break in the shoot, they start teasing Jimin about No More Dream MV. And then JK just says how he was at home with Jimin and Jimin brought up No More Dream so they started watching the old MV together. Lol they are just literally ALWAYS together, at home together too. 🥺

Namjoon saying his solo VCR shot is one he is thinking of as a clash of his persona and his ego from within. Jungkook saying his is a reflection of the Jung Kook inside him and the Jungkook of BTS. Taekook filming their scenes with the paint was so cute. Lol I still don't get the purpose but I enjoyed it. The staff telling JK to hold on and be still afterwards but he can't help acting really silly and ended up with a mouthful of paint anyway 😅😂 the consequences of your own actions lmfao. He then changes and moves to shoot for his My Time solo of the VCR with clocks for a "boy experiences time difference." Jimin then does his Filter solo shoot for the VCR and Yoongi isn't even there but he is still trying to pick fights 😂 "shouldn't we break things. Im better at breaking things then yoongi" Lmfao Jimin said his concept for that VCR video was about youth.

Jimin opening day 3 of VCR shooting with the film to play after they Dance to Black Swan and his solo dance. And he says he tried to portray turning into a black swan so wretchedly broken. 😭 he did. The emotions! And he is also just so beautiful and cute while shooting. Yoongi said he shot his where he was looking into his own shadow. Tae playing with the ball on his solo set and saying he wants to give it to his little cousin. 😭 V with kids hurts me, it's so precious. My heart! And the way the members all teased their eldest hyungs with the closing marks. Lmao Suga trying to make them all jump to go to the next segment and then Jin trying to do it too, but then the other 5 just kicking them out of frame like they disappeared on their own 🤣

Practice Making Film:

These days were all filmed sometime during the month of September 2020 I believe. Jikooks matching ponytails era. Lol Jungkookie giving out encouraging butt patts before practice starts 🤣 One of my favorite things about practice making films is seeing Dance Leader Hobi as well as Jimin giving up advice and suggestions. Our main dancers 😍 Lol they work so hard honestly yet still have fun! Jimin crawling on the crowd to the beat and JK smacking his ass to the beat while everyone else just stares. No one knows what they are doing either 🤣🤣

The next days practice staring off with the Boy with Luv umbrellas and Jinkook play fighting with them. "Practice starts off with more bickering between the youngest and oldest." Lol we know editors. It's their love language. Vmins smiles as they play with the umbrella. "Two people who can have the most fun with a single umbrella." Editors so cute. JK starting another day of practice off by picking up all the other members to help them stretch. Lol it was so cute. He is so strong!! Jin offering to do it for JK only to give up before even picking him up at all 🤣 Poor Jungkookie. And the way they all practice standing and jumping over the backup dancers. Lol Jimin feels so bad about it. He keeps shouting sorry! And even tried to go brush off their backs after JK stepped on them too 🤣🤣 He is such a sweetheart. JK moving Jimin away and back to his spot too lmao Its the hand on the waist 🥺 plus I love that this practice has them in full black and white feets. Literally had to toe to mask. Lol

Tae holding onto Hobi for hugs and cuddles. GOD THEY ARE SO CUTE. Jikook joining vhope all sitting together in the corner (our vhopeminkook cuddle line) and are all just playing with a go pro. Lol JK is so cute with it too, zooming into everyone's face. Then we get shots over several days of them practicing their solo stages. And God i love seeing them dance and work so hard. I'm obsessed with all of them. Plus still having fun. Hobi DYING laughing on the floor watching Maknae line perform Ego for him. Lol and then the beautiful vocals we got blessed with when Tae decides to join JK and they sing My Time together during one of his practices. Jikook play boxing together while the rappers practice Ugh. I relate. That IS the mood it creates. Vmin making up cute dances together and Joonie coping it too. Lol

They all gather again to do a full practice run through of the whole concert and they are so all looking so cute. Hobi's outfits are always so on point! 5 of them all in matching mastermind fits (2seok the only ones not in it). I believe this was at the very end of September 2020, same day Jikook posted at 4am. Maybe? Correct me if that's not right!

JinKook once again fighting as everyone else warms up. It IS their warm up I guess. Why are they all warming up by crawling around on all 4s. Lol Everyone exhausted after practicing their intense choreo and jikook just resting together so cutely. Jimin laying in JKs lap. Oof. And then joking around and untying his shoe before leaving lol

Jin and JK sprinting like crazy around the practice room because Jin was trying to take JKs ponytail out. Do those 2 never get tired?!! I love seeing that JK helped make the choreo for My Time himself too. That's honestly SO COOL. And Hobi getting SO EXCITED during Jimins filter practice. Lol Tae giggling like crazy and Hobi whooping during THAT moment. Lol and Hobi even shouting out to JK after too. Literally why 🤣 post over that here.

They really are each other's fanboys. I love it. Jin saying he is worried about having to perform after Jimin does because his was so good and everyone hyping him up. He really did perfect and shouldn't have worried at all! Tae joining in for the Ego dance with the backup dancers and continuing after to show Hobi his dance. Vhope really are so cute. 2seok joking about greeting each other with the Ego/Moon dance moves from now on too. Lol and practice continues straight into day 2 the very next day. Namjoon stretching and jikook being the embodiment of monkey see monkey do.

Jimin needing to take off his shoes super quick between Black swan and his solo Black Swan dance as the group disperses. Lol the way he throws both his shoes and socks at Tae 🤣 Tae running off the "stage" with his stuff yelling the whole time that he was supposed to give one to Namjoon too, not just him 🤣🤣 and Jimin trying not to laugh as he starts his very serious contemporary emotional dance. Lol I love them so much. AND THE WAY JIMIN PRACTICES FILTER WITH REAL PEOPLE AND NOT FAKE ONES. How did one get THAT job?! Lol the way he tried desperately to change his clothes so fast but couldn't make it. Lol the members giggles watching him try to strip so fast 😅🤣 and the way a member or two joins Hobi's Ego practices EVERY SINGLE TIME! And the film ends with Jikooks no more dream iconic lift. Except instead of running along everyone's back, JK just picks Jimin up with EASE and carries him spinning down the line. Lol their SMILES. (Gif from this moment is the very first one in the post)

🎶

And this is going to end part 2 of these posts. I'll finish up Disc 3 in part 3 covering rehearsal making film and concert d-day. Thanks for letting me share! Love these guys

March 2022 Comeback/Debut Ranking

15. Real Love-Oh My Girl

Yeah…really not my vibe. I think the concept was a good version of their previous concept, just more mature but the song was just boring to me. I hope I like their next single better, this one just wasn’t it.

14. Hai Cheng-the8

Unfortunately I just don’t really like ballads most of the time. I love his voice and I’m glad he’s doing more solo stuff, he’s my bias in Seventeen and I want to see more from him. I just wanted another pop track like Side By Side, which was one of my favorite songs from 2021.

13. Oh Sorry Ya-Sunmi

Another song I’m not a fan of from one of my biases this month, and Sunmi is one of my ults too. I don’t know why, but I just did not vibe with this song.

12. CoNEXTion-NCT U

So happy to see my boy Shotaro doing something, but honestly a bit disappointed that he wasn’t actually part of the song. He’s a member of the group, he shouldn’t just be used as a dancer. The song itself was only ok. It felt like an intro song for an album, just stretched out to a full length song, and frankly there’s a reason most intros are max 90 seconds. This song is too long.

11. Ven Para-Weeekly

I’m not a fan of Weeekly, I only listen to their singles casually, so I don’t think I should comment on their concept change, other than to say that I felt that this concept didn’t fit them, but for the song itself, I felt it was very generic and it didn’t really catch my attention. I probably won’t skip it if it comes on shuffle but I’m certainly not seeking it out.

10. Love In Space-Cherry Bullet

Glad to see them come back! Not a fan of the verses and pre chorus, I felt that all the lines were rushed and it was distracting. The chorus and bridge were really good though, just not enough for me to listen to the full song often. The MV was super fun though.

9. Mother-Heize

A rare ballad that I liked! I’m not a fan of very chill songs but Heize is almost always an exception to that. I thought this song was beautiful and emotional.

8. Honey-Solar

Another Mamamoo solo this year! I was looking forward to Solars solo comeback and I definitely enjoyed it. I think I prefer Spit It Out but Honey was definitely fun. A bit too chill for me but groovy enough to keep me interested.

7. Glitch Mode-NCT Dream

The anti-drop chorus is not my favorite but a really enjoyable song nonetheless. I love that the Dream rap line other than Mark is getting a chance to shine and obviously the vocal line is killing it as always. I loved the sudden electric guitar dance break, so fun.

6. Look At Me-Kawaguchi Yurina

Not really kpop, but I found out about her though GP999 so I’m including her. A great debut and the song is really pretty. I’m glad that she didn’t let her loss on GP999 drive her away from this career, I think she’ll do great.

5. Feel The Rhythm-Red Velvet

I love this song so much! The trap + classical music combo is so good, and the ballet/classical art concept is so cool. I wasn’t a fan of Queendom or that EP, so I’m glad that Feel My Rhythm and its EP were more my style. I loved the b-sides.

4. MemeM-Purple Kiss

Another song from one of my ults this month! MemeM was really good, I felt like this concept really fit them. I loved the story teasers too. Zombie killed it but I’m glad they went back to the vibes of Ponzoña. The EP is definitely my least favorite one of theirs but still pretty good.

3. Wonderland-AleXa

Spectacular. Definitely the best song on American Song Contest so far. The lyrics slap, the song slaps, the performance slaps. She deserves to move on to the semi finals and I hope she makes it further too.

2. Tomboy- I-dle

I’ve been listening to this song so much since it came out. I know people don’t like Soyeons rap but I love it. Is it cringe? Yes. Do I love it because it’s cringe? Also yes. The entire song is so fun.

1. Maniac-Stray Kids

My third ults to have a comeback this month! All I needed was EXID and I would have had 4 for 4. While Oddinary wasn’t my favorite album of theirs, I really like Maniac and I’ve been listening to it non stop since it came out, it’s a great follow up to Thunderous. I can’t wait for the rest of their music this year.
