Like many boy teams of their stature, The Wind shall be sending a member off to compete within the upcoming season two of Boys Planet. Thanatorn shall be absent for promotions throughout this time and — if he makes the eventual group — for fairly a while after. Earlier than that, the group is celebrating their anniversary with particular single Howdy Tomorrow (안녕 내일). This annual launch has develop into a practice, following final 12 months’s Sirius Half 2.
Although these tracks are fan songs by nature, I respect how each have been upbeat and in step with The Wind’s total sound. Sirius Half 2, particularly, felt as if it may have been one in all their title tracks. As compared, Howdy Tomorrow is extra throwaway. Its breezy pop beat chugs alongside properly however with out actual consequence as equally light-weight melodies provide candy sentiments excessive. Once I consider The Wind at their finest, I hear punchy — generally ornate — instrumentals and melodies full of thrilling peaks. Howdy Tomorrow is subdued on every of those fronts, however I assume that shouldn’t be shocking given its goal. Nonetheless, with the group’s speedy future in flux I’m desirous to squeeze as a lot glorious music from them as doable earlier than issues change an excessive amount of.
