Enjoyable Okay-pop stuff tends to occur on my birthday. I share the day with my all-time favourite Okay-pop music The Chaser, because it was launched precisely twelve years in the past. Then final 12 months, rookie group The Wind made their debut on Could fifteenth. I nonetheless query why I didn’t function any of the b-sides from that debut album as buried treasures. Opening observe Sirius deserved particular consideration, so I’m glad they’re honoring it with a “half two” single on their anniversary.

Although not the identical music, Sirius Pt.2 (빛을 담아 너에게 줄게) could be very a lot a continuation of the unique’s hovering, anthemic sound. After all, the group is down a primary vocal and you may actually hear that on materials like this. As a lot as I like The Wind (and I do!), I sort of want their company would audition some large energy vocalists to hitch as a further member. Their sound actually requires that sort of performer.

Nonetheless, it’s been enjoyable to observe oldest member Heesoo step up as each chief and primary vocalist. He rattles off a satisfying energy word at Sirius Pt.2‘s climax, including aplomb to the higher-pitched, reedy tone that characterizes a lot of the observe. In the meantime, the manufacturing chugs together with vivid bombast, together with some scrumptious electrical guitar in direction of the tip. It was created by dream crew KZ, DINT and Nthonius, and these guys know precisely what us followers need.
