NCT WISH — [ODE TO LOVE] (Patreon)

Another amazing album of theirs, I really feel like this a new beginning of theirs with this first full korean album. I love the confidence in their lyrics and how experimental their songs are, they all sound so different but still feel like NCT WISH in their uniqueness and weirdness. I love that this album feels youthful yet mature and serious yet colorful, if that makes sense. I think the songs express many different sides of young love but also highlights how we all have experienced or at least can relate to all these sides of love. While keeping that mind I think it connects with the EROS & ANTEROS concept. Or maybe that's me reading to much in to it - either way I love it!

I'm always impressed by their growth with each release and the first and last songs on this album made me happy in that sense. They've worked so incredibly hard since their debut and I think their bond as a group is why they're able to do that. That's the impression I've gotten from watching their variety content trips. I like how the conversations they have during those are something I'm reminded of when I listen to their songs sometimes, because of the lovely lyrics like in Voyage for example. Anyway I'm looking forward to listening more to this album! Let me know all your thoughts in the comments~ 💚💙
