A Ok-pop act’s title observe isn’t at all times one of the best tune on their album, even when it’s the one most individuals will hear. Generally, b-sides deserve recognition too. Within the singles-oriented world of Ok-pop, I need to highlight a few of these buried treasures and provides them the props they deserve.
As is commonly the case with SF9 albums, their new Love Race packs stronger b-sides than its title observe. Specifically, there’s a run of three dance tracks (Facet By Facet, Waruru, No No No) that symbolize a core pillar of their sound. Any of those might have been promoted, although I perceive why they went for a unique sound when choosing their title.
When attempting to decide on a buried treasure, I waffled backwards and forwards between Waruru and No No No. I just like the unusual, repetitive hook of the previous, however in the end No No No‘s traditional sound was at all times going to attraction to me most. The tune doesn’t do something significantly distinctive or particular, however its surging beat and brassy accents supply an easy momentum that’s very satisfying. SF9’s ethereal vocals go well with this type properly. The refrain really jogs my memory of their label-mates CNBLUE, although fused to a dance beat slightly than a rock anthem. Aside from that comparability, No No No‘s supply may be very 2nd/third gen — even climaxing in a Beast-like energy vocal. It’s good consolation meals.
