When final we heard from Xodiac, it was within the type of four-member sub-unit UNIT-X early this summer season. I needed to search for this evaluate as a result of I couldn’t bear in mind the music in any respect, and that’s most likely as a result of it was a canopy of an previous SS501 monitor. Now, the group is again as a complete with new single Alibi.
They’ve gone from candy to struggling with this one, draped in chains and singing over a lurching beat with orchestral traces including a way of muted drama. I’ll by no means say “no” to a dramatic boy group monitor, however regardless of the association the core parts of a music have to be robust. Alibi is trussed up with loads of theatricality however the music itself is forgettable. The verses cross by with none memorable turns and the refrain spikes with power seeking an equally thrilling melody. I give them props for throwing the entire symphony on the monitor, however I’ll be shocked if I bear in mind this in a number of months’ time.
