EXO have been inaugurated into my “Ok-Pop A-Z” characteristic, which suggests something they launch mechanically will get a full evaluation. To be sincere, I’ve regretted that rule over the previous few years since I haven’t vibed with the group’s albums since 2018.
Is there new work REVERXE any totally different? Learn on to seek out out!

MOONLIGHT SHADOWS
With Moonlight Shadows, we enter REVERXE‘s second, extra subdued aspect. EXO have typically boasted R&B type b-sides on their albums and their vocals swimsuit the style extremely nicely. Their discography has no less than a handful of classics inside this soundscape. Nonetheless, the type also can veer too subdued till we find yourself in coffeehouse territory. Sadly, that’s the case with Moonlight Shadows.
I like the sound of Moonlight Shadows, and that’s largely because of the members’ voices. However the factor is, if I need to take heed to this explicit texture there are such a lot of higher choices inside their discography. The melodies right here go away no impression on me. Certain, they’re fairly to take heed to, however they go in a single ear and out the opposite as a result of they’re so clipped and unsubstantial. The phrase “it’s a vibe” has turn into extra of a grievance than a reward coming from me, and that’s 100% the case right here.
