was listening to IN LIFE and im crying ,,, skz made Real Good Music back then u guys 😢😢😢😢 like obv the old stuff (tm) isn’t easily beatable and noeasy is crazy delicious cohesive album but in life js works soo well in a way the most recent albums js Don’t for me 🫤 granted, i have yet to listen to 5 Star in its entirety, buttt idk from the clips and snippets i’ve heard online it’s looking uncertain
if i had to rank all 2020-2023 korean albums, excluding GO LIVE bcs we’re trying to not be TEWW biased here, in my frankly Correct opinion it’d go smth like this (things might switch up if i went into more detail and ranked the pros and cons, but not by much LOL) :
1. IN LIFE ( i don’t even listen to this 1 often but u have a banging title track and banging unit and b side tracks like cmon wtf !)
2. NOEASY ( listen it’s not js bcs this is probably the only Good title track they released since ( for legal reasons this is a joke 😪) but because it’s so sonically enjoyable like u have to see the entire picture ! even the order is important it takes u thru a slightly nostalgic journey and also i might js be a tad but emotional and biased bcs hyunjin made his return w this album and it was the most Perfect era EVER in kpop for skz to skz like
3. MAXIDENT ( ok it was a little boring for me at first i’m ngl but there’s a reason it was one of my most played albums of 2022 by my calculations ! like it lacked a lot in some places, did so much in others ( queens chill GMYTMI and superboard we thank u for ur hard work ) but it was Fun i liked it i vibed i chilled and case143 wasn’t really awful js wacky
[brick wall]
4. ODDINARY ( i never say this on main but i absolutely abhored this mini JEJDJDJ to this day i still have a huge hate boner for it LMAO like it js felt like a copycat of the prev albums and not in a Good way i rarely play it except for when i wanna listen to lonely st and waiting for us like it’s that serious for me. also, the concept hair everything EW EW we did not give there at all i find maniac era to be a scourge on my life and everyone else should too ! it’ll kill u trust
there u have it everyone this is why u should all go stream top 3 and ignore ordinary w ur very dying breath 😢🙏
btw replay value is good for everything EXCEPT ordinary like i’m ngl that shit was not good
Between Chan being my bias and the loml, the spicy Changbin fic I just finished writing, and Jisung getting naked like a whore! back. I get no peace from these men!
actually a lot of the boys planet performances were fine or they just need to work on live singing stability, but i watched the god's menu stage and then watched a skz god's menu stage to compare and those trainees really just fucked the song up so badly. like it's hard to match changbin's yelling rap tone, and han has crazy speed and enunciation so whatever, but chan's line is in a comfortable range and he's not dancing while singing it, same with seungmin's immediately afterwards. like the rappers clearly are not naturally gifted rappers like changbin or han, but those vocalists aren't even like. near where they should be even as trainees imo
My baby nephew got his hands on the peanut butter jar and his mom said he had a heyday with it, so being me, I sent 3racha Heyday, knowing bare minimum, the kid would like it. He's been listening to hype music since he was an embryo. And I quote:
"He doesn't hear Korean often so he looked a little confused but proceeded to head butt me on the down beats so"
I am making a babystay out of this kid lol. He also was wildly head banging when I randomly played Miroh album on a video call once. *wipes away a tear* he's got my blood fr I say even though we're not even blood related bc he's actually my old roommate's son

ik the boys have been having fun w/ 'silly' sounds (which is fine, i like 'em) but i want them to get 'scary' again
i wanna hear them get experimental with rock! with edm! get scary with some dubstep!
n i get it. songs like side effects or freeze arent their most-loved songs (which is fucking stupid but to each their own) but its that experimental side of their music that scratches my brain so so So good it makes me look stupid
please! give me another grrr (beware)! give me another miroh and mirror! give me another side effects!!!!!!
so. get scary, get mean. fucking bark and scream on the track again, just go fucking bananas again....please 🥺
