It's been five days, @Once!
Now that it's had time to marinate, how did you like the album? Favorite songs? Songs you didn't like so much?
*gives CPR to thread*
Top to bottom, no skip album for me. And musically, it's very consistent. Some people prefer diverse albums where the different tracks all tackle different styles and genres, and some others prefer more consistency from the first to last track. This is more of the latter imo.
Very mature sound, and extremely well produced, incredibly satisfying.
I still think the title song ICSM is my favorite but picking a fav B-side is hard since they're all so excellent.
I'll pick my top 3 in no particular order lol:
1. Go Hard: This did the impossible for me, made me lose my shit over an instrumental chorus. Usually, it's one of my biggest gripes and Twice esp are known for their vocal choruses so this was unexpected af, but that beat drop is so fucking good

If you pay close attention you'll hear it playing in the background while they sing the pre chorus, but you don't notice it the 1st time lol. But I think mentally it preps you for what's to come, and then when it hits, holy shit
2. Behind the Mask: Written by Heize I believe, really nice way to end the album, encompasses the album theme really well and sells us the concept of mature Twice the best imo.
3. Say Something: Classic city pop, laid back and chill but with a satisfying beat driving the verses along the way.
