Quickie Catchup Reviews: AB6IX, Berry Good, E’last, GFRIEND, Mamamoo, Monsta X, Park Jihoon, Taemin, TREASURE, TXT, XIA
Oh boy it's been a while hasn't it. I really don't want to keep taking these really long breaks but University exam season is in full swing down under and as a result, the time I can afford to spare on reviewing the latest kpop releases has shrunk massively. So, here is a jam packed … Continue reading Quickie Catchup Reviews: AB6IX, Berry Good, E’last, GFRIEND, Mamamoo, Monsta X, Park Jihoon, Taemin, TREASURE, TXT, XIA
K-POP Monthly Roundup: June 2020
Due to the relentless release schedule that us K-pop fans have to endure, it’s not easy to consume all the content at once. That’s why I thought it would be fun at the end of each month, to look back at my top 5 singles and B-sides along with my top 3 albums. Although my placement for … Continue reading K-POP Monthly Roundup: June 2020
SONG REVIEW: The Answer – AB6IX
AB6IX snatched a place in my top 10 Kpop songs of 2019 with the effortlessly cool Blind For Love. Since then the group have gone through a number of issues including members injuries and leader Youngmin's DUI, which eventually led to him leaving the group. This led The Answer and its accompanying album to be … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: The Answer – AB6IX
SONG REVIEW: Break Up – Lim Young Min (AB6IX)
AB6IX's '5INALLY' project has unfortunately been one of the most disappointing of the year so far. Although it gave us the phenomenal Rose, Scent, Kiss, the rest of the tracks are as faceless as they can be. And while Break Up is still as generic as they come, it's probably my second favourite track on … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Break Up – Lim Young Min (AB6IX)

Quickie Catchup Reviews: 3YE, AB6IX, ELRIS, Henry,TWICE, Spectrum, UNVS
3YE - Queen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWOtN5B8PnU The entire first half of this song is as near perfect as modern k-pop can get. Heavily recalling everything great about 2NE1's imperial phase, Queen rides on an incredibly potent electro bounce that's made even better by the attitude infused delivery of the groups members. The trance influenced hook is also … Continue reading Quickie Catchup Reviews: 3YE, AB6IX, ELRIS, Henry,TWICE, Spectrum, UNVS
SONG REVIEW: Rose, Scent, Kiss – Lee Daehwi (AB6IX)
To put it frankly, most of AB6IX's new '5INALLY' project is completely faceless. While I gave Woong's Moondance a decent review earlier in the month, that track has all but faded from memory. The same could be said about last week's More, which although I enjoyed more than Moondance, was equally as faceless and thus … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Rose, Scent, Kiss – Lee Daehwi (AB6IX)
SONG REVIEW: MOONDANCE – Jeon Woong (AB6IX)
AB6IX were one of my favourite rookies from last year. Their full embrace of the deep house genre was right up my alley, and resulted in two fantastic singles. Out of the groups that the now infamous "Produce" franchise has spawned, I firmly believe that AB6IX is the most cohesive. Not only does the group … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: MOONDANCE – Jeon Woong (AB6IX)
