Are you planning to do an ENHYPEN album listen and a LNGSHOT album listen as well?

planetky

u should react to the lngshot ep!

K

I love exo and for me it was okay cbx was missed i feel if everyone was together the songs might have been different with a more r&b vibe.

Christine

hahaha I think the first version of back it up you listened to is the MMA live version! so glad u noticed that the quality is off and u found the proper version

vctzn

There's acc no way the crown mv and back it up synced up that fucking well esp with d.o coming in wth

maria

I feel like exos albums always kinda worked like that. If we take obsession as an example it also goes from intense to a little r&b to more r&b then pop, funk and then some slow music at the end. Same goes to dmumt or exist going from r&b pop to more funk and then 2 completely different slower songs. Like it always gradually changed in a way even from here from the intense crown with some sirens sounds and some electronic sounds, metalic guitar too and back it up having more r&b elements then going to more electronic with crazy switching to more r&b and then slower songs the last 2 as always (by slower i mean not completely slow but one song for the fans in a way before the final slowr song which wraps the album).

Actually you didn’t listen to the studio version of back it up that involved lay

Etoile2004

so empty without CBX also I don’t know why lay was included when he can’t even perform with them, some bops though

Definitely felt the absence of the other members on this album. And it's so stupid that they have Lay on the album when he can't even participate in the promotions.....sigh they need to stop doing that it's getting old at this point and it's disappointing for the fans. I personally like the mix of genres on the album even though R&B is my favorite genre that EXO does. Suffocate goes back and forth between R&B and Dance vibes. Moonlight shadows is definitely R&B and so is Back Pocket (just with a more upbeat tempo). So I think it was a good mix for an album overall but I just miss the vibe that the other missing members bring to the table.

I feel sad that we didn't get cbx on this album, but I hope the next one will include all 9 of them. Apart from that, the album is phenomenal to me: not only am I happy to get new exo music, I also liked all the tracks like A LOT, definitely a no skip for me. Probably one of the best exos albums too

maria

no one expected for Yixing to not be able to participate and its not like it was planned for it to be "stupid" to have Lay on the album. Lay has been frequently called back to China for major projects, including work with the National Theatre of China and as a cultural ambassador. He's not a regular chinese k pop idol.

Adella Neal

Yeah I know all that but this is the second time it’s happened where they include him on an album and he doesn’t participate in the promotions so it’s seems like it’s becoming a pattern. They should know by now based on his status in China that there is no guarantee that he can participate in EXO activities if he can get called back to China any minute. So that’s what I mean by stupid. They are taking a chance on disappointing fans every time they include him on an album.

maria

if u mean dftf album it wasn't promoted anywhere in the first place. Chanyeol literally enlisted the day of his final shoot of the mv and it was just a gift album to the fans. I get your point if it was something they knew that's gonna happen but it literally was so sudden in this case, exos didn't even have the time to change dance formations for the fanmeet that's how sudden it was, Lay was fullly prepared to be there and then apologized for it. Everyone is allowed to feel dissapointed by the situation but its not something u can prevent or anyone to control. So what, the better option gonna be not to include him at all or what. Considering the circumstances Im grateful of him flying literally back and forth to be part of this comeback and for all the preparations for the fanmeet and mma stage which sadly he didnt partake in when he had a whole dance seection for him which was cut off.

Adella Neal

LOL! I love how we both seem to have strong opinions about this particular subject since we feel the need to keep going back and forth about it. Actually I was thinking about the Don't Mess Up My Tempo album. He was included in a number of tracks on that album as well but didn't participate in the promotions. And in that case, they actually knew about it before making the announcement. I appreciate and respect your opinion. However, my opinion remains unchanged as it's just my preference to see all members who patriciate in the album also participate in the promotions and live performances. I know a lot of fans who feel the same and it just sets us up for disappointment. And with Lay's status in China as it is, there is no guarantee this won't happen again if SM continues to try and include him in the future. I do love the fact that we could see him dancing in the recently released MV though.

EXOL2020

Yea, the album format is actually pretty true to their norm, it has the heavy hitters in the beginning, then they do some more experimental ones, then they do some r&b tracks, then a couple poppy positive ones, and then they usually do one really kind of ethereal sounding (good for driving, like Oasis and Flatline) and then they do the ballad, and either one of the last 2 songs is usually very end of concert and fansong coded.

Do you know where I can find his reaction to that performance? Is it uploaded on Patreon?

Liz

I can’t find it anywhere…

It was fun listening to this with you. The live version of “Crazy” from their tour (it’s professionally shot) is excellent for the dancing. It’s the best D.O. has ever danced, IMO. Who knew he’d be great with sassiness? Lol. https://youtu.be/SIAzBwljv6g?si=llGD1NiEZOC41sCH
