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: Ciipher – Slam The Door

SONG REVIEW: Treasure – Darari (remix)
Well, what a pleasant surprise this is. When considering 2022's most underwhelming comebacks, Treasure's Jikjin is right up there. It's awful chorus acted as a smear to the tracks strong guitar assisted verses which pointed towards an exciting new direction for the group. And the general public reflected a similar sentiment, launching the laid back, … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Treasure – Darari (remix)
SONG REVIEW: Ciipher – Fame
Ciipher pulled one of the greatest debut to first comeback improvements in k-pop history with last years Blind. A song that harnessed a tight arrangement and killer drop to craft a standout effort in a year full of them. A far cry from the auto-tuned mess that was their debut I like you. As such, … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Ciipher – Fame
SONG REVIEW: TXT – Good Boy Gone Bad
TXT's Blue Hour and its accompanying album, 'minisode1: Blue Hour' is easily one of my absolute favourite comebacks in recent memory. It's an extraordinary piece of work, bursting with character and consisting of an all killer no filler tracklist that's only gotten better with time. As such, my expectations for 'minisode2: Thursday's Child' were through … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: TXT – Good Boy Gone Bad
JPOP HALL OF FAME: Yuzu – Hyori Ittai
Year Released: 2013 When considering many people's modern musical leanings, much can be traced back to the sounds that they experienced during their formative or adolescent years. Though we like it or not, those years are some of the most fundamental for shaping who we are. In almost every aspect of our being. And that's … Continue reading JPOP HALL OF FAME: Yuzu – Hyori Ittai
SONG REVIEW: PSY – Now (feat. Hwasa)
When considering some of my favourite K-pop moments of the past few years, JY Park and Sunmi's incredibly campy yet irresistibly fun When We Disco is perched right near the top. It showed just how potent an upbeat throwback duet could really sound under the right circumstances, breaking so many modern k-pop constructs in the … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: PSY – Now (feat. Hwasa)
Top 25 Songs by BTS
Despite being the group that essentially got me into K-pop, I feel like I don't talk about BTS enough on this blog. Well, at least not in a positive light. And that's honestly a shame because their discography is filled with so many incredible songs. Both singles and B-sides alike. And while their recent work … Continue reading Top 25 Songs by BTS
SONG REVIEW: JO1 – With Us
Ever since last year's immense Born To Be Wild, I've had my eyes firmly locked on JO1 and their rapidly growing discography. And though we sometimes get wildcards like last month's excellent Move The Soul, it's been a venture that's failed to bear as much fruit as I had initially expected. They've had solid songs … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: JO1 – With Us
SONG REVIEW: WOODZ – I hate you
Of all the X1 members, WOODZ has easily become one of the most musically and commercially successful. His chameleonic performance style and ability to shift and mix genres with ease has become his biggest asset and one that's made me a massive fan of his recent work. His adoption of a more rock heavy sound … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: WOODZ – I hate you
