The best album SNSD and After School have in their respective discographies are Japanese language releases.



cheeky: Scandal, Perfume & others are always on topic.

not cheeky: For one, modern mainstream Kpop simply doesn't exist in the state which it is without its reliance upon emulating aspects of Japanese pop/rock/general culture, and (even more so than the Eurobeat/EDM/etc. influence) its wholesale sourcing of Western music/culture; particularly Black American Hiphop and R&B.*


Don't any of you ever lie to yourselves about that.

SCANDAL - Onegai Navigation https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x...2471;ョン-onegai-navigation_music

Bebop tried.

The world can't have enough [good] chillwave.

Yes.

Well said. Long may the off topic music suggestions continue. They're very much appreciated.

*looks at avatar*

BTW, for obvious reasons, I never had a chance to tell you what an amazing job you've done with OT6 OP. Nicely done.



*Yes, there is also influence from India/SEA, Middle East and others, but the above is far beyond the "art doesn't exist in a vacuum" reasoning. No, this isn't a call for people to start posting their favourite Macklemore, OT Genasis and Gym Class Heroes songs here.


As you were.

One of my favorite Soshi songs

I thought the day would never come, but Hollywood by The Black Skirts is FINALLY out after a long wait and a lot of delays. God this song is so good, I can't wait till he comes out with a new album it's going to be amazing.

"My soul, dancing in the real life"

That's a lot of Hyoyeon, Sooyoung, Yoona and Yuri. Lots, lots of Yuri. I don't remember the last time those four got such a spotlight, I'm really happy.

Also, Seohyun and Sunny are now reduced to one-liners.

Totally forgettable.

 

[Ym1r]

snsd sucks lets move on to red velvet guys

 

[Shizuka]

Totally forgettable.

But unfortunately, this. I feel like it's because it's mostly the korean version of the japanese single, and not a korean single on itself. Galaxy Supernova and My Oh My were kinda forgettable as well, this isn't really a proper comeback.

 

[josecitoxnyo]

If this is a sample of 2015 Soshi, i totally like it.

[ramyeon]

I think it sounds like they stripped them of all their personality and gave them a shitty, generic club track.

Spoiler

Ice Cream Cake is leagues better than this, and Automatic is a whole other level altogether.

ICC sure, i don't think Automatic is anything special than a song like this one. Both are filler tracks and the only reason this is a single is that, it's "different" than any other song another group could release.

Watch all the lameOA's and tryhards go for something similar, or simply showing up her ass at the rithym of a lame song.

The girls themselves admitted the title song was opposite to their "mood"

Spoiler

at first, then toed the company line

. Something more appropriate is at the end of the video.

Edit: Backing up ramyeon on "Automatic" being the superior release.

 

[Niks]

Totally forgettable.

pretty much.
Dance was ok though... but yeah pretty meh.

also sooyoung should eat a couple million cheeseburgers

If this is a sample of 2015 Soshi, i totally like it.

You make it sound like giving more lines to soyoung yuri and hyoyeon is a good thing.

 

[josecitoxnyo]

It is, for the sake of variety it is, if it's by preference, i'm already getting a Tae solo.

 

[Shizuka]

I think this is the point where SM starts to invest more on other, younger groups and let older groups like SNSD ride the end of their wave throughout the next years.

 

[Ties]

the new EXIDeity album sounds so good wtf

 

[josecitoxnyo]

They already did that ditching F(x) for Red Velvet and getting that steady income SNSD is.

So much denial in here. Catch Me If You Can is Hyowesome.

Pretty simple SNSD track, but some really good parts. So...I like it. If this is more of a Japanese release than a Korean comeback track, then I did always like their Japanese stuff better anyway.

 

[josecitoxnyo]

The ballad sounds nice.

What happened to f(x) anyway? After Electric Shock and Rumpumpumpum.

That's really nice. I hope they'll perform this live sometime.

 

[Pendulum]

What happened to f(x) anyway? After Electric Shock and Rumpumpumpum.

Another AOTY with Red Light (title single here). Then Sulli shacked up with Choiza and promotions were cut early. Sulli has not performed with f(x) since (who have only done recent SMTown concerts, and SM didn't let f(4) perform at any of the 2014 Gayos). Krystal dropped hints in an interview that a new album is being worked on. No word whether it's with 4 or 5 of them.

 

[Broank]

Fuck! They better damn promote it on some shows even if MuStation cockblocks! Actually tempted to make some Taeyeon ponytail-porn gifs/webms. . .

Also SM should keep that choreographer/stylist/director for the Korean comeback.

if you play the song backwards it says "sones find and kill jessica"

catch me if you can sucks but Hyo and Sooyoung did good

Wow great MV and really glad yoona seems to have more parts... The dancing is fabulous and they seem like a better dance group with 8 but sadly the song isn't very good ..:/. I see this track getting a million remixes though... It was still awesome seeing the girls again.. Soo what about the jap version maybe it will sound a little better.....

Yeah This sounds better but the chorus really ruins the whole track

This would have been a great SHY sub unit song. That's for sure.

Choreographer info.

Slap me my queen.

As expected from the teaser... meh.

I mean the choreography was really good

Spoiler

(that's what happens when you take the crappiest and laziest dancer of the group)

, but the MV and song were just really really meh.

The only other great thing about it is Seobby looks good, like damn son, but she's always been like that.

Speaking of Soshi and MV's... I'm disappointed in y'all K-Pop GAF. Hoot, our own theme song is sitting at 29M views.

Spoiler

Y'all are slacking.

 

[Fafnir]

Catch Me If You Can.

The song is whatever, but at least the MV is on point. I like the transitions between girls. Yoona/Yuri MV, but everyone get's screentime even Hyo. Guile Generation outfits are instant classics, orange jumpers need to be Flash Kicked.
