EXO’s Chanyeol made his comeback final week, however he’s already again once more with follow-up single… Again Once more. Whereas Black Out took a subdued rock method, Again Once more dives right into a extra boisterous 90’s sound. It’s a way more attention-grabbing track, pulling collectively a number of distinct segments.
Again Once more virtually seems like a mash-up. The rapped verses are what I’d anticipate from a Chanyeol solo observe, bounding ahead with loads of vitality and character. Then, the track swerves right into a stunning choral pre-chorus, using an angelic mattress of backing vocals to show the observe on its face. This phase gives transient respiration room earlier than Again Once more reinvents itself as soon as once more with grungy rock vitality.
These three items shouldn’t match collectively in addition to they do, however they forge a complete that’s better that the sum of its elements. By the point Again Once more climaxes in its rousing guitar solo, its full imaginative and prescient turns into clear. Ok-pop has typically blended genres collectively, and that is the most recent instance. It’s simply being heard via a unique sonic prism. This seems like a fruits of Chanyeol’s expertise and influences and much eclipses the extra predictable Black Out.
