HYBE has gotten superb at delivering anthemic pop/rock confections from their boy teams, and I eat them up each time. Japanese act &TEAM has cornered the market on this model, however their soon-to-be-formed junior group appears poised to take up the baton. The ultimate staff will probably be determined as a part of yet one more survival collection, with End Line ~Final Race, New Begin~ performing as its spirited sign music.
The monitor opens with this massive fats guitar riff, which seems to be a irritating pink herring. If solely all the music had maintained this depth! However true to the HYBE formulation, the verses pull again for an airier sound. This normally works for me, however the distinction here’s a bit jarring. End Line’s refrain brings again the bombast, fleshing out the instrumental as soon as once more. I like the sound however I want the melodies had a bit extra distinctive character. The hook is catchy and optimistic however by no means touches these nice &TEAM songs (to say nothing of TWS’s transcendent hey! hey!). Private music bias actually retains this afloat, however I can’t assist however be pissed off by the unfulfilled promise of End Line’s punchiest moments. Let’s let the fellows actually rock out subsequent time! It appears like they’ve the vocals to take action.
