Source: 1theK Originals BE YOURSELF I love the choreo and how they saved Handong's spot. I love that it's a pretty dark sounding album, my kind of stuff.
I actually think the choreography is a little bland, but kinda like I said for Gfriend's ‘Crossroads’, while I didn’t find the choreography particularly exciting - it still really fits the song, so I’m not mad. Plus a boring DC choreography is still miles ahead of other groups choreography anyways 😅
The girls look amazingggg, and this is Dami’s era for sure. She just exudes confidence :)
I’m just starting to listen to the album - will update with my thoughts soon!!
Edit: I LOVE IT!! Very happy DC fan right now :))))
My standouts from the original songs are Scream, Tension, Red Sun, In The Frozen, and I'm loving the smooth tracks Jazz Bar and Daybreak. Black & White and Sahara are the only two I’m kinda like meh about, but they might grow on me. Of course I love the fan songs that they included with the album too ❤️
This album is a great release! I feel like all of the first four tracks (sans the intro) could've been the title track. Also, some of the other songs have a more experimental sound for them but it still has their 'essence'.
I will keep listening to it bc I really liked everything on first listen. Over the Sky sounds like an opening to an adventure anime.
VERY solid album. I like Sahara and dawn a lot of the new songs while 'Over The Sky' feels like a really kickass anime ending theme. Scream is fine but NFL for me Red Sun snaps just a LIL bit more in the way I like.
can't believe they picked "scream" for the title track when there were plenty of other contenders on here. "red sun" would've made a good one! that or "in the frozen".
"jazz bar" is so different for them. i absolutely love it and need a performance of it asap!! same w/ "black or white".
overall it turned out better than the previews made it sound, but i still stand by what i said about wanting them to have songs that aren't written by leez and ollounder.
I’m conflicted. I feel like all the songs have potential, but there’s just SOMETHING about each one I don’t like (eg Damis auto tune in Sahara - she reaaaally doesn’t need it).
However, it really allows the girls to showcase their talent, and each member proves that she could be a soloist in her own right.
saving the suit dance to watch on the weekend but I've been looping the album since it came out on Spotify this morning for me 🤩 I like every single track, even the customary ballad that I usually skip after the first listen! still can't pick a fave, every song hits a different sweet spot for me :D

I think Jazz Bar might be my favourite.
