One of my favourite BTS and K-pop songs of all time is the melodically rich soft rock balladry of Spring Day. It was a track that made perfect use of the groups diverse vocal tones and added a layer of sentimentality over one of the most gorgeous hooks of the past decade. And since the … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Film Out – BTS

And because of this, their quality is most of the time never unearthed or just completely overlooked by the majority of listeners. I want to change that and that's why I'm going to be counting down … Continue reading The 100 Best K-pop B-Sides / Album Tracks of 2020 (100 – 76)

I think it's finally time for me to come to terms with the fact that I've begun to fall out of love with BTS' music. 2020 is a year that has heralded massive success for the group and their recent success on the billboard hot 100 with August's Dynamite is certainly evidence of that. But … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Life Goes On – BTS
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.

Sure, it's been solid but it hasn't had the same kind of emotional or dynamic impact as their best work. Last years "Map Of The Soul: Persona" was a step in the right direction but despite a few highlights, … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Dynamite – BTS
