K Pop

Album title: Feel 'em
Artist: Btob
Genre: K-Pop
Nationality: Korean
Release date: March 6
Position in Discography: Tenth EP; twelfth overall
Fear Factor: High
Familiar with this artist? No
Familiar with the genre or subgenre? A little by now
Average RYM Score: 2.28
Surely that's a bad choice of album title, no? Btob stands for, in case you're vaguely interested, Born to Blow. Sorry, that's a lie: stands for Born to Beat. I prefer my interpretation. And this album is superb. That's also a lie. It's grabage. Sorry, garbage: still got George Takei on the brain from the sexual misconduct thread.

Come to think of it, the title here also kind of ties into that. About the most interesting thing about it, though. At least it's only five tracks, which is five too many.

Check out more from this artist? No

Of all the LOONA solo debut MV's , Gowon's has grown on me the most, at first I did not really care for it, but it's become one of my favorites. So much aesthetics worked into the video artistry and a cool dark yet playful vibe. like a weird horror comedy almost.That and the "crunchy" queen vocals rule. And the early loona stuff just wicked crazy synths.

They're not the same or anything, I think it's the progression...

I'm not well versed in K Pop, but given that I liked that song, are there any other K Pop artists/songs you'd recommend to a newcomer?

Ok, For me I'd place Red Velvet at the top followed by Loona, Dream Catcher, Gfriend/Viviz, WJSN (Cosmic Girls), (G)-IDLE, Aespa, Itzy, Everglow and GWSN (Girls in the Park).
I could go on.

Hey thanks!! I'll check 'em out.

You're from Wales, right? How'd you get into K Pop anyway? Assuming you are from Wales, you wouldn't happen to be a Manic Street Preachers fan, would you?

]I'm a big LOONA fan, I like the ones suggested also, plus some really good independents.

never heard of someone starting on the LOONA path and not getting hooked, they have a huge and varied catalog already.

this one reminds me of 90s TLC
