fashion monster 397 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 My comment basically turned out to be me fanboyingĀ Ā Spoiler If there's a group that made me change the way I judged them, that's definitely fromis_9. I did not watch Idol School and when Glass Shoes was released, I thought I did the right thing. But then To Heart was released. I didn't care the first time I listened/watched it butĀ in the following weeks it kept popping up in playlists randomly and I started to really like the song without knowing what it was. At the same time Glass Shoes was included too and I went from not liking the whole thing about that song to being ok with it. For the first time I realised that I was enjoying a group for its music while hating everything visually about it. Then we get to DKDK. At this point I was moderately hyped. I wasn't sold on the song immediately, but after a couple of listens, the catchiness of the chorus accomplished what it was designed for. And only at thatĀ point I decided to watch the MV and... I liked it. I was glad that they were slowly introducing "normal" clothes instead of having only school uniforms.Ā And now they comeback with Love Bomb. A BOP imo. I love the song, how it starts with this impending sense of doom and then switches to a pop rhythmically driven verse. I know nothing about music but to me the pre-chorus sounds more melodical and deliversĀ their most fun and catchy chorus to date. The post-chorus brings back that dark theme of the intro, that makes the switch to the rap verse smother and kinda expected without sounding out of place. And that kinda helpsĀ to build up to the chorus again, without it sounding repetitive. Finally your able to breath during the bridge, but only for like 10 seconds and then, it starts to build-up to the chorus another time, except that it doesn't happen yet. It puts you in a kind of "edging" situation, where you know what's gonna happen but you don't want it to happen yet, using the intro/post-chorus and now post-bridge/pre-chorus (?) section that suits perfectly the topos of an explosive last chorus, especially since a bomb is in fact a figure used in the song. Then the outro. I felt like the whole song was always increasingĀ the hype that culminates in the chorus in an effective way, but that that was it. Instead it is the outro thatĀ seems like the spot the whole song was always intendingĀ to reach, leavingĀ me with the need to press replay.Ā Moving to the MV, I'll keep it short. I love everything about it. One of my faves this year. I'd say it has nothing new and I can seeĀ a lot of influence from previousĀ gg's MVs. I don't have problems with things looking and sounding similar to others or the whole cookie-cutter vibe unless it's done by the same group and/or in a messier way. AndĀ I finally get amazing visuals that outdid my brightest expectations. That scene during the last chorus where they are throwing bombs and using umbrellas like shields is probably my favourite.Ā Ā 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
