Over the past few weeks, I've had an almost unhealthy obsession with the works of OT5 TVXQ. The addition of the majority of their discography back onto Spotify certainly helped, but even before this I've always believed that their work as a duo never came close to their work a quintet. Not only did they … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Brava!!Brava!!Brava!! – Kim Jaejoong

SONG REVIEW: Howling – VICTON
Being billed as Apink's younger brothers, I've taken a keen interest in Victon since their debut back in late 2016. Apink have always been one of my absolute favourite girl groups, and unfortunately, Victon haven't been able to (atleast in my eyes) hit those high expectations set by their seniors. In fact, I didn't really … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Howling – VICTON
SONG REVIEW: Home – YEZI
One month after the release of My Gravity, Yezi has once again returned to the kpop landscape with the propulsive dance pop of Home. Even though most of her career has prospered on her skills as a rapper, her last few releases have shone greater light on her skills as a vocalist. This may have … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Home – YEZI
SONG REVIEW: Kick It – NCT 127
Though they were always on my radar, 2019 was really the year when NCT 127 really forced me to take notice of them. Before the incredible one two punch of Superhuman and Highway To Heaven, I would have probably considered them to be my least favourite of the NCT units. But one phenomenal mini album … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Kick It – NCT 127
Song Review: Aria – CRAXY
Sometimes the best things come from places where you least expect it. Though they released some pre-debut material, I was never all that invested in CRAXY. From a distance they seemed like just another low budget girl group destined to get lost in the ever-changing and oversaturated kpop market. As a result, I wasn't all … Continue reading Song Review: Aria – CRAXY
SONG REVIEW: Pheonix – Da-iCE
Yes I know there are many K-pop songs I have overhanging, but there's just no ignoring the recent influx of fantastic jpop singles. In my previous post, I mentioned how M!LK are quickly rising the ranks to becoming one of my favourite Japanese groups. Well, Da-iCE, along with AAA just happen to be my favourite … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Pheonix – Da-iCE
SONG REVIEW: DAZZLE DAZZLE – Weki Meki
I've had an interesting history with Weki Meki. Even against their recent tracks, my favourite single from them (although it's a cover) remains the anthemic Butterfly that soundtracked the 2018 Pyeongchang winter Olympics. Though their two debut-era singles were a little too off the wall bonkers for me, their triple sucker punch of Crush, Picky … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: DAZZLE DAZZLE – Weki Meki
SONG REVIEW: FIESTA – IZ*ONE
FINALLY! After almost a three month wait, we've finally been gifted with IZ*ONE's first full length album 'BLOOM*IZ'. The controversy surrounding the produce franchise resulted in the scheduled November release to be postponed indefinitely. Although I wasn't at all happy, I preferred this to outright disbandment. Musically speaking, IZ*ONE are probably my favourite Produce spawned … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: FIESTA – IZ*ONE
SONG REVIEW: BOUNCY – Rocket Punch
Rocket Punch debuted last with the enjoyable, but rather generic Bim Bam Bum and its accompanying album, Pink Punch. Though I did enjoy a few tracks off the record, most notably Love Is Over, the entire project felt too beholden to current girl group trends. Considering they hail from the same company as the legendary … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: BOUNCY – Rocket Punch
SONG REVIEW: REVEAL – THE BOYZ
Apart from having arguably the best group name in the world, THE BOYZ are a really hard group for me to really decipher. Last years Bloom Bloom came across as too saccharine for my tastes, but their J-pop debut Tattoo felt way too angsty and edgy for them. I find the group are at their … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: REVEAL – THE BOYZ
