In between being a part of the largest Okay-pop group on the planet, the members of Seventeen have discovered time to slowly however steadily develop aspect careers as soloists and sub-units. Unit tracks are often divided between their Dance, Vocal and Hip-Hop groups, however albums have sometimes featured duo recordings as effectively. That is the primary time the formation has been utilized for an official comeback, with members Jeonghan and Wonwoo taking the helm. I’m unsure what impressed these two to work collectively, although mega-fans most likely have extra perception than me.

Final Evening presents a slick, evocative soundscape pushed by plucked guitar and chunky bass. Relatively than develop a hearty refrain, the monitor rests on a catchy synth loop — the type Seventeen themselves had been significantly keen on round 2017. This isn’t a brand new construction, but it surely’s been out of the limelight lengthy sufficient to really feel considerably recent.

The steadiness between Jeonghan and Wonwoo’s excessive and low tones works effectively, even when neither are given a lot to do. The majority of Final Evening feels whispered, nearly as if the producers liked the instrumental a lot they forgot to develop a full tune round it. This leads to a satisfying temper and efficiently develops pressure, however delivers little payoff in the long run. I maintain ready for one thing large to occur, however the tune is content material to cycle round its few tips for 3 minutes.
