I'm not super comfortable with the direction they're taking with their MVs, but fuck, they all look really hot. Jaeho is doing things to my head ;_; That white/bleached hair is sorcery.
The song is nice but not my fav. It feels super short. like, the song was over before it reached its peak? Also, too much heavy breathing to my liking :( That being said, they sound really good. Dokyun actually gets lines (yay) and Sihyung's rap is less awkward than in their previous releases.
hmmmmmmmmmmmmm SIhyoung improved and Dokyun got lines, but I don't care for the song. Where is a song that's a worthy follow up of Dreamer and What am I to you???
every new release takes us a little further away from Dreamer and while I really liked the turn they took with What am I to you, I wish they'd stuck to their initial sound :(
u know i knew that jump was going to be them transiting into gyrating on the floor but i didn't want to believe it because watching people hump the floor is always embarrassing but there it is.
the backing track sounded a lot louder than their singing and the heavy breathing was weird, also i'm sad that kyungil's rapping and not singing. i understand that this song is important to them because yijeong wrote it about his/their feelings while they were away for a year but the production isn't.. my favorite.
hope the rest of the songs pick up the slack. their album songs are usually better than the single anyway, so.
Hmm, well I liked it in general, and Kyung-il is, as always, my everything. This is unfortunately a weak song after such a long wait. This won't be winning any awards for them, and the structure of the song is shaky. Heavy breathing is good for highlighting moments in the song as support. It's not meant to be a core part, which they did here. And while Sihyung's rapping may have improved, it still sounds pretty cringe-worthy to me. It's about on that level of Nickhun hot-fiyah that I'd rather stay away from.
Yijeung's parts in the song were my favorite. His and Kyung-il's parts in the MV were also my favorite. Neither the song or MV had any highlight for me beyond them. It was just darkness, male hand-angst, and slo-mo.(Which was only appreciated in the abs scene and the sexy choreo). I hope they made a choreo only version. Also, it seemed like the editing was lacking, because there would be moments where it felt like the camera stayed on the guys too longduring their dance, and their shoulders would kind of slouch in a way that didn't go with the music. i dunno. i just need to see this live and judge there.
NOT ENOUGH DOKYUN TBH I was excited for this song but I don't like it as much as I thought I would ;; It feels messy, but knowing myself I'll like this more after a couple more listens
I actually really really loved this. I wasn't into Dreamer, only really started getting into History after What Am I To You, and I loved Psycho. I love this song, the melodrama of it, the angsty shirt lifting. I really wanna see the full choreo. History always has such interesting and different choreo to other KPop groups imo and that turn/fall onto the floor looks amazing.
Plus I'm never gonna complain about male idols grinding on floors.
Hmmm... i kind of like the drama of it. I'll definitely be watching the live performances to see the full choreo.
Yijeong sounds great, and Kyungil and Jaeho look amaaaaaaazing, but Sihyoung always makes me cringe - his rapping, his overdone facial expressions like the billy idol sneer... just doesn't work for me.
Oh well, at least there's lots~ of Kyungil to look at. :P
song is aight but the mini album is AMAZING. ghost is the best track - they should have promoted it. i also cannot believe that yijung's solo is a rap song (it's amazing lol). not feelin the video not feelin the manpain. however.. history remains one of my favorite groups because every single member is extremely talented in some way and the other tracks on their albums always deliver. love them
