Okay-pop idols thrive on constructing a gradual, devoted fan base. That is most frequently completed by a continuing stream of releases and deluge of content material. However throughout the huge Okay-pop trade, there are various “one hit wonders” – acts who launch one single or album and are scarcely heard from once more. It’s time to look again at a few of these unknown treasures and provides them the eye they deserve.
Judging strictly by their variety of releases, NewUs don’t fairly match the “one hit surprise” label, however so far as I can inform Love Panic was the one monitor actively promoted on music reveals. Proper Now and Get Away every appear to have come and go together with little to no fanfare. In my thoughts, Love Panic (러브패닉) is the teams one “hit that obtained away” and represents some one of the best sounds popping out of Okay-pop in 2013.
This music’s opening has at all times jogged my memory of Infinite’s debut Come Again Once more. That raucous, punky guitar riff injects power into the monitor proper from the beginning, framing propulsive verses that preserve the depth excessive. From right here, the music segues into an anthemic refrain and rhythmic post-chorus, persevering with to construct upon the power the verses laid out. And at about 4 minutes in size, there’s loads of time to revel within the music’s jagged charms. Curiously, two of the members went on to affix N.Tic — one other boy group who might very effectively seem on this function with their glorious 2018 monitor Do You Know Who I Am.
