Tune Evaluation: Xdinary Heroes – X room

The ever-prolific Xdinary Heroes have one other mini album lurking across the nook and are teasing it as we speak with pre-release X room. I actually loved October’s ICU and hope that the group’s music will proceed in that vein. X room is a really totally different beast, however its extra reserved sound makes for a good teaser.

With band music so well-liked in the meanwhile, it turns into harder for a bunch like Xdinary Heroes to face out. From my vantage level, their strongest calling card is their quirkiness. A monitor like X room could be very fairly and well-executed, however threatens to sound like everybody else in the meanwhile (most notably their company seniors DAY6). Nonetheless, each band wants depth and width of their discography. You possibly can’t merely repeat the identical sound time and again. X room‘s sentimental heft affords one thing a bit totally different for Xdinary Heroes — at the least in relation to their promoted materials.

Whether or not or not this can take pleasure in the identical lasting recognition as a chart monster like You Had been Lovely stays to be seen, although it definitely seems like an try to take action. It’s not one thing I’d select to take heed to typically, however for a sure temper and setting X room undoubtedly hits its mark.

Grade: C+
