While I predominantly cover singles on here, I’ve always been an avid consumer of albums. More often than not, this results in some songs that I adore but others that I detest. As a remedy to this issue, we have Beast Sides! These songs put the Beast in B-side and are either stronger than their … Continue reading Beast Sides: Stove – Lucy

SONG REVIEW: Seoul – Ghost9
Though I had not expected much from them upon their debut, Ghost9 have quickly gone onto craft a truly interesting discography with songs that go straight for the jugular and arrangements that reach for the sky. They have proven themselves to be conveyers of some truly immense music and their versatility completely shattered my initial … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Seoul – Ghost9
SONG REVIEW: Lose – Wonho
Though he was one of the more popular members of Monsta X before his untimely departure, I don't think anyone expected Wonho to debut with the dark, futuristic synthpop of Open Mind last September. It was a song that certainly painted a distinct sound for him and alongside mass acclaim from fans and critics alike, … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Lose – Wonho

SONG REVIEW: Beautiful Beautiful – ONF
You know, it's 2:00am and I was going to go to sleep but I realised that i kind of have to talk about this song. After being forced to go MIA for around 2 weeks because of my own idiocy (spilt coffee on mac and as a result didn't have a laptop btw), I've decided … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Beautiful Beautiful – ONF
SONG REVIEW: Boku no Sensou (My War) – Shinsei Kamattechan
Now this is a track that I've been wanting to talk about for ages. Ever since the release of its "short" version back in late December, I've been absolutely taken by Shinsei Kamattechan's incredibly unique and daring new single, Boku No Sensou or My War. As the latest opening for arguably the most popular show … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Boku no Sensou (My War) – Shinsei Kamattechan
SONG REVIEW: Odd Eye – Dreamcatcher
Although I already enjoyed much of their musical output beforehand, 2020 was the year where Dreamcatcher truly became one of my favourite K-pop groups. The more electronic influences truly opened a new door for the group and tracks like Scream and Boca were the perfect vessel to channel that new energy. And so coming off … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Odd Eye – Dreamcatcher
SONG REVIEW: Grandeur – Snowman
So far, of the two 2020 Johnny's debuts Snowman have yet to completely impress me. I really enjoyed both D.D. and especially Stories but nether of them felt like stunning musical moments, something their brother group, SixTONES excelled at delivering last year. And as such, I came into Grandeur with pursed expectations. And thankfully, I … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Grandeur – Snowman
SONG REVIEW: Kaibutsu – Yoasobi
For those who have even the slightest of knowledge of Japanese pop culture, the name Yoasobi should ring some immediate bells. Their late 2019 release Racing Into The Night was a bonafide sensation in Japan and their popularity has only gotten bigger and bigger throughout the course of the past year. And unlike most cases, … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Kaibutsu – Yoasobi
SONG REVIEW: Wadachi – Spyair
I don't talk about them on the blog nearly as much I should but Spyair are one of my all time favourite J-rock bands. Their influence within the J-rock and anime community is not to be underestimated and while their recent work hasn't been particularly to my tastes, they've got a back catalogue full of … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Wadachi – Spyair
