ANTI BELIEVER
ATMOS‘s first 4 tracks kind an all killer, no filler suite of fashionable dance music. Just like the album’s teasers promised, it’s a whistlestop tour of genres SHINee have mastered. Nevertheless, every track has its personal distinctions to make sure the working order doesn’t really feel repetitive.
Anti Believer brings the drama. Its title alone raised my eyebrows. It’s uncommon {that a} Ok-pop track makes me wish to dive into its lyrics, however I had to check out translations for this one. It seems the lyrics are imprecise sufficient to go well with quite a few conditions. On the floor, it is a “love misplaced” idea, however it might simply as simply be affixed to spiritual or societal anxiousness.
Musically, Anti Believer pulses with a sinister dance beat. It’s one of many easier track constructions on the album, but the hook has a approach of shortly working itself underneath your pores and skin. The blokes sound nice — glossy however emotive in all the appropriate locations. There’s an unimaginable moodiness to the whole observe — not the subdued mush so many present acts peddle however an precise pathos that bears out within the sonic panorama of the manufacturing.
