Teen Prime’s Niel has had a solo profession for over ten years now. Again in 2015, he debuted with the Taemin-lite Lovekiller however has been lively solely sporadically since. She is his first solo single since final yr’s underrated Parting Path and sees him taking up a extra downbeat soul sound.
Proper off the bat, She‘s instrumental caught me off guard. From the searing guitar solo to its languid tempo, the tune deposits us proper into the seventies. I can virtually see lava lamps in a darkish room once I hear this. It’s a sound we don’t hear usually in Ok-pop — particularly as a title monitor. There’s most likely a cause for that, although. She isn’t notably industrial. It’s a temper fairly than a chart-conquering hit, however Niel has earned the precise to document and launch no matter he pleases. The tune builds slowly and circuitously, hitting its climax every time that spectacular guitar takes maintain. It feels extra like a curiosity than a tune I’d lodge iinto my very own playlist, which inevitably colours my opinion of the monitor.
