ANTI HERO
After a little bit of a decelerate, My Identification roars again to life with its second unit observe. Anti Hero comes courtesy of ONF’s “Off Crew,” comprised of Seungjun, Wyatt and U. That is the extra efficiency oriented workforce, chargeable for one among my favourite b-sides (Secret Triangle) from 2021. Anti Hero picks up the place that tune left off, bolstering its sound with a heavy dose of guitar.
I really like when producer Hwang Hyun performs with electrical guitar. He tends to wring as a lot drama from the association as doable. Anti Hero definitely matches inside that mildew, bounding ahead just like the soundtrack of an motion film or online game battle. The tune itself is fairly easy and never in contrast to different, extra generic boy group materials, however I recognize its focus and power. The bridge is very enjoyable, because the percussion ramps up and we get just a few dramatic chants positioned precisely the place they need to be — as dynamic assist somewhat than the driving pressure behind a refrain. The observe squanders its probability to go even greater and bolder in the course of the finale, however that is nonetheless a brilliant strong b-side.
