This whole ep is delightful. Onew has my favorite voice in k-pop, but I haven't really liked his solo stuff before this. Glad they gave him something other than super dry ballads

Finally getting around to listening to the full Bloom album and it's great. One of RVs best albums easily.

Yeah it's so freaking good. A lot of it is old stuff, but the middle of the album is insanely catchy and fun.

Also, at this point I'm pretty sure Beg For Me is my favorite Red Velvet song, the first thing in my head most mornings is "Dance for me, work for me, beg for me" lmao

This is so funky and good goddamn. That jrock bassline drives the whole song and rules hard.

Oh wow the whole album owns. Starlight is their retro 80s song, Jiu’s solo is so bright and poppy right out of Oh My Girl’s discography. Dami’s song is just 100% pop punk. gently caress!

Yea this is definitely more jrock than a lot of their recent tracks so its a nice call back. Its got a sort of "kpop inspired by jrock inspired by symphonic metal" vibe going on, especially in the back half. I'll be checking out the rest of the album tomorrow, but this is a solid dreamcatcher track. Its not taking my top spot in that list but I wouldn't side eye anyone saying it was theirs. Looking forward to choreo, they showed surprisingly little of it.

That "blond but the front 2 inches black" styling is definitely not to my taste I must say. Usually their styling doesn't have that solid of a miss for me, it'll be more of a "not to my taste but looks good". Some of the cgi in the video seems to be just enough worse than other cgi in the video that my brain went "oh thats all cgi there", which is too bad since I didn't get that feeling from their other cgi heavy videos. Still nothing *bad*, just enough that I noticed.

The skunk hair definitely isn't my thing either, and I also go against the popular opinion and say Siyeon's bangs aren't my favorite styling for her. Hair is temporary though!

I am continually confused about people thinking Dreamcatcher is going "more mainstream" because Maison definitely sounds like their normal style to me. Love it, too! I think some fans have a weird expectation they are going to go full-rear end Rammstein or Slayer and, I mean ... they're still kpop? The video was a bit dodgy in the CGI department but it's not enough to ruin it.

From the solos, Sua and Dami knocked it out of the park. I surprisingly liked Siyeon's more than I thought I would - I loved Paradise and wanted more like that instead of a "lazy ballad" but there was more to it than that, especially with the concert performance. Props to Yoohyeon too, she hit that concept well. The solos really felt like the members really put themselves into it, and even if I wasn't into some of them I appreciate that they got the chance to do that.

I'm torn between Locked Inside a Door and Maison as my favorites off the album. The whole thing is very listenable other than the ballads, which just aren't my thing.

Y'all crazy, Yoohyeon looks great with that style. I also really like Jiu's hime cut mixed with the shaggy rocker look.

Maison sounds like the intro song to an anime. That's a not a bad thing (for me anyways, lol). Dope MV.

Maison slaps, although it could have used maybe a little more of a drop to start the chorus, and maybe a little better separation of the instruments during the finale. Still owns regardless of my quibbles.

Beauty Full (Dami's solo track) is absolutely everything to me right now, tho. Channeling the best of Avril and Billie Joe to give me the raging pop punk banger I didn't know I needed so badly in my life.

So nice to hear Onew singing, glad SM finally letting some artist sing live again. Dice wasn't my favorite song on the EP until hearing it hear and it really clicked with me.

DC also going hard with the live vocals as always.

I like that Loona found a different but still appropriate concept for Shake it but WJSN just went with quite possibly the least appropriate concept for this song possible, witch? girl crush for the typical kpop song about being a shy girl with feelings for someone

also i still really like all these old g friend songs, probably because there hasn't really been songs like them since
