Although 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, please welcome an all new feature, Beast Sides! These songs put the Beast in B-side and are … Continue reading Beast Sides: Barbie – Jang Ye Eun (CLC)
Despite the fact that Golden Child are one of my favourite groups, 2020 has firmly taught me to never hold any expectations. Compared to both 2018 and 2019, this years singles have felt rather underwhelming, adhering much more to stale trends than forming strong, unique melodies. But while the title tracks have mostly been lacklustre, … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: One (Lucid Dream) – Golden Child
Although I consider them one of my bias groups, I haven't really been enamoured by a Seventeen title track since 2018's Thanks. And that was more than two full years ago. The group have had consistently strong albums but I've always felt like the promoted singles have played second fiddle to the much superior b-sides. … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Left & Right – SEVENTEEN
As June's onslaught of comebacks continue, I've noticed a rather interesting trend. While most of the singles are improvements over much of what we've heard this year, there's always an album track (or group of album tracks) that far outshine them. This is a rather common occurrence but the fact that it's happened for almost … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Oopsy – Weki Meki
Despite the title track being a little too generic for my liking, Cravity's debut album is probably my favourite debut of the year so far. The album was full of enjoyable yet different material with tracks like Top of the Chain, Stay and Star being definite standouts. Another one of these undeniable highlights was Cloud … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Cloud 9 – Cravity
Stray Kids released my favourite song of 2019 with the incredible Miroh and have since found a permanent place on my bias list. Since that show stopping performance, they've comeback with the equally exhilarating Side Effects and consistently strong 'Cle:Levanter' mini album. Considering that 'Go Live' was going to be the groups debut full length … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: God’s Menu – Stray Kids
Nature are one of those groups that I knew existed but never really payed attention to. I enjoyed their debut and last years I'm So Pretty was fun but I felt like all their other singles were pretty forgettable. The group have gone through a number of conceptual changes but have always stuck to a … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Girls – Nature
Last week I gave my thoughts on each and every performance on Road To Kingdom. It's been a show that I've actively been watching since its premier and while It's no where near as good as Queendom, it's been an enjoyable 7 episodes. And while I do hate the fact that they pushed competition over … Continue reading Ranking the finale songs from Road To Kingdom
Although I adore Jpop I've rarely been attracted towards the world of super large girl groups. There isn't really a particular reason for this but I've always found the work of soloists and boy groups much more appealing to my ears. Though they each have some incredibly strong singles, groups like AKB48 and Nogizaka46 have … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Relationships. No way way – Morning Musume
Though I consider IZ*ONE to be the most consistent of all the winning produce groups, their material is still incredibly hit or miss for me. And while I have enjoyed most of their Korean work, their last single Fiesta was the complete opposite of a grower becoming more grating as the months went on. The … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Secret Story of the Swan – IZ*ONE
