Enjoyable Ok-pop stuff tends to occur on my birthday. I share the day with my all-time favourite Ok-pop track The Chaser, because it was launched precisely twelve years in the past. Then final yr, rookie group The Wind made their debut on Could fifteenth. I nonetheless query why I didn’t characteristic any of the b-sides from that debut album as buried treasures. Opening monitor Sirius deserved particular consideration, so I’m glad they’re honoring it with a “half two” single on their anniversary.
Although not the identical track, Sirius Pt.2 (빛을 담아 너에게 줄게) may be very a lot a continuation of the unique’s hovering, anthemic sound. After all, the group is down a important vocal and you may actually hear that on materials like this. As a lot as I really like The Wind (and I do!), I form of want their company would audition some huge energy vocalists to affix as an extra member. Their sound actually requires that form of performer.
Nonetheless, it’s been enjoyable to look at oldest member Heesoo step up as each chief and important vocalist. He rattles off a satisfying energy observe at Sirius Pt.2‘s climax, including aplomb to the higher-pitched, reedy tone that characterizes a lot of the monitor. In the meantime, the manufacturing chugs together with vivid bombast, together with some scrumptious electrical guitar in the direction of the top. It was created by dream workforce KZ, DINT and Nthonius, and these guys know precisely what us followers need.
