It honestly keeps growing on me. Their performance on music bank too was just spectacular

EXO - boy, I was really disappointed with this. They sound lovely but this adult contemporary thing just ain't for me.
VAV - I feel like they were almost there - the instrumental is fun but I don't think the vocals and arrangement quite work.
R U Next and Ready to Move - pretty forgettable and uninteresting to me.
DKB - almost there for me..if they just had better vocals, this would have landed for me.
Lun8 - cute but not quite there for me. Vocals aren't there for me.
Miasmo - very forgettable and generic to me.
Baek Ye Bin - never a fan of that high thin voice in kpop.
Ateez - Bouncy. GOTDAMN, I loved this and just a day after I said on Twt that I liked Ateez performances but not their music.
SLOW IT DOWN, MAKE IT BOUNCY.

I also really liked Django and Outlaw on this album.




None of the bsides in your list grabbed me although This World was interesting and reminded me of a Muse song.

I LOVE RUM PUM PUM.

Honestly, Imma need to recheck their singles, but most of their singles have that latin vibe to it. So designer is a pretty good indicator if you're gonna like vav or not.

Ateez - Bouncy. GOTDAMN, I loved this and just a day after I said on Twt that I liked Ateez performances but not their music.

That's what we call justice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The way I'm trying to like cause everybody is having fun with it but I just can't seem to get into it Only This World stood out to me on the album, I think everything else was a bit eh, but I probs set my expectations too high after guerilla and cyberpunk

Ah, so Vav is like KARD then. I think I'd check them out just to see.

It's tough when you see your faves getting hyped but it's for a song you don't like or just find aggressively mid. Like "yay the recognition" but "but that? 😔 "
