The Boyz maintain the distinct honor of releasing the most effective songs of the yr and one of many worst. For followers of movie award celebrations, that’s like being nominated for an Oscar and a Razzie in the identical yr. I don’t know if the group themselves understand this, however they’ve dropped a follow-up music video for contemporary album observe Aura only a week after Fashionable arrived to stink up the joint.
Having listened to the brand new mini album, Aura was my standout (although not one of the songs come near their finest work). It doesn’t scream “idol title observe,” nevertheless it does match the summer time season nicely. Because the tune opens, you may mistake the instrumental for a brilliant, fairy-like lady group banger (suppose early GFriend or Oh My Lady). The tune goes on to blossom right into a breezy, light-as-air pop confection with slight metropolis pop affect. The sound is just too fizzy and inconsequential to face as a discography spotlight, nevertheless it’s fairly refreshing and a greater match for The Boyz’ charms than no matter bizarre posturing Fashionable was making an attempt to do.
And for these readers who wish to observe together with my constantly-growing “songs for the curler rink” playlist, Aura is a straightforward addition. I don’t know if anybody goes to the curler rink anymore. I positive don’t. Nevertheless, Aura‘s buoyant sound virtually begs for curler skates and spinning disco balls. We may do a lot worse than that!
