5 years since their debut, CRAVITY are in a rebirth section. They’ve modified leaders and teased their new album with photos of the members rising from large eggs lined in amniotic fluid. Sure, you learn that accurately. And sure, it’s type of superior in its sheer nerve. Rebirths in Ok-pop don’t all the time imply drastic shifts in sound or type, and fortunately new single SET NET G0?! retains lots of the group’s strongest components.
Actually, this tune finds a method to stuff nearly each CRAVITY sound into one bundle. SET NET G0 strikes by means of a number of distinct segments, from the brittle funk of its verses to the hovering melody of the pre-chorus to the electro-stomp of the refrain to the requisite mid-song hip-hop breakdown. Amazingly, these disparate components by no means really feel jarring, although you all know the way I really feel a couple of energy-shifting rap verse. (SET NET G0 earns a sliver of a bonus level for not less than shoehorning it into a distinct a part of the tune than typical.) Total, the tune works very properly regardless of a couple of shortcomings.
SET NET G0 opens with certainly one of these weaker moments. I’m not offered on the descending melodies of the verses. They fizzle vitality slightly than construct it, however as soon as a powerful kick of percussion joins the combo we’re off to the races. From right here, the tune vaults into its strongest flip — a superb pre-chorus underlined by thick synth textures. The grittier refrain additionally works properly, even when it feels ripped from one other tune completely. These two components be a part of forces for SET NET G0‘s finale, and it’s right here that the tune lastly is sensible. We may do with one other fifteen seconds of this payoff, however even with its slight body the observe is satisfying and feels destined for a lot of replays thanks to a couple ear-catching highlights.
