EXO have been inaugurated into my “Ok-Pop A-Z” characteristic, which suggests something they launch mechanically will get a full assessment. To be trustworthy, 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 completely different? Learn on to seek out out!

Flatline
No tune title higher describes this album than Flatline. Aside from Crown, which is a stable if unspectacular EXO single, REVERXE‘s songs are largely flattened of any aspect which may make them gripping. Satirically, the tune Flatline truly injects a unique texture by way of its rock sound, however that is decidedly muted rock music. It seems like one thing that might be at residence on certainly one of Suho’s solo albums, although even there it wouldn’t be a very memorable minimize.
As I’ve stated about a couple of different songs on REVERXE, Flatline would truly make for good album filler if it had been surrounded by stronger music. However sandwiched between boring midtempos and ballads, it form of fades in with the wallpaper. That’s too unhealthy, as a result of the soundscape itself may be very nice and atmopsheric and the fellows sound nice. It’s simply that the tune itself is simply too boring and uneventful to make a lot of a mark.
