people say they're going to decline every time they comeback and they only keep growing. the only thing that will stop bts from growing is enlistment, not the music
and cmon every artist has a few bad comebacks here and there. sure was ON and map of the soul 7 my favorite comeback from them? definitely not, but that doesn't mean that their next comeback will be the same way. hate bts or love them, they always come back with something different. and tbh I'm kinda sick of the whole "bts older music is better, they're getting more westernized I hate it boohoo" because it's not. you're just holding on to nostalgia. their best albums are from their newer music. i get that its subjective but yall are acting like after dna they just started to release absolute garbage when that was far from the case.
also an unpopular opinion from me as well... love yourself her was a good album, l like the pop influence, pied paper and dimple stay being some of their best songs to date.
This. But I think it’s pointless to argue at this point. In some people mind, ARMY who are joining the fandom at this point are just brainless and toxic sheeps who follow the bandwagon because there is nothing outstanding about BTS or not anymore. ARMY are in general way more dedicated than some others fandoms for a reason.
BTS albums from the Map of the soul era receive a good critical and public reception which is not given to everyone nowadays.
The fanbase is so huge at this point and not all ARMY are going to be satisfied with the constant changes of music. At the same time, new ARMy join and some unstan. It’s not really different from others fandoms but for a reason some ex ARMY are really loud about the reasons why they left the fandom.
One comeback is not just the title track. Songs like Jamais Vu, Home, Mikrokosmos, Louder than bombs, We are bulletproof : Eternal, Shadow,Inner Child, Black Swan are unique in the Kpop landscape. The Love yourself series is a fan favorite. Same for 7.
