Yeah I'm back 🫣

[liknws]

fuck this song is so good

sounds like an anime opening and i love it

[decembermoonskz]

this collab was targeted at me specifically

[peachyleeknow]

I know it's gonna be lonely

'Cause еveryone keeps turning me down

Countless new surroundings

Cold eyes keep looking me down

I'm still in the crowd, alien of the town

Yeah, they want me to give up right now

They're making me laugh it's so loud

Waking the demon that's hiding inside

[fueledby3racha]

SO, rock-star came out...

I still have to decide my final tier list tho, the album is so good as a whole piece!!!

when I gave it the first listen it was 2 a.m. btw. words cannot describe how much I tried not to scream from excitement when I first listened to megaverse. I feel like it's one of those songs that give so much stray kids vibes. I'm still obsessed over felix counting in french - since I'm an old stay and I've been since clé 1 miroh, I can't help but always wait for that good as hell intro for every album they make. megaverse makes one of the best intros yet, cuz it in globes in such a good way the rest of the album. regarding the melody, I really like how they've embraced the noise as part of the structure of the music they make. this structure appears in most of the songs except for "leave" ofc.

now about the title track (and the rock version). I've told this to a friend and I still believe that if it were for the kids they would have introduced the rock version as the title track per se, but the the kpop industry isn't ready for that yet - they can make all the noise music you want but there are still some limitations. both versions really convey the lyrics of the song and the energy is very powerful, which is something you'd rather expect from the kids. even when the melody is so loud like the Rock version, the harmony within the song is still very present! also the video is astonishing, but that's for another whole post lmao.a

next song! blind spot is... a very special song LOL. the contrast between the lyrics and the melody is very present and that makes up for a very good song, cuz it's not as angsty as cover me. the whole song gives more of a hopeful vibe, still maintaining the profile of pop rock. this one is for the nightcore fans btw, iykyk. the lyrics are very personal too and they're still so relatable - that's one of the powers stray kids have.

about comflex - every time I listen to it I feel like the most powerful person on Earth. it's really encouraging and I feel like many queer (and non queer) people feel like that too every time they listen to it. personally as a queer person it makes me feel like I can wreck every stereotype and role out there. so needless to say, I'm claiming it for the queers :) I'm obsessed with the vocal performance of chan, lee know and seungmin - Felix also really knows how to accentuate the feeling of songs that make you feel powerful (even sexy, like charmer).

NEXT! cover me... when I tell you I entered in a state of Nirvana when this song came next in queue... with this song I kind of started realizing how much English they've been including in the songs lately. when Chris sings in English he has such a different approach and you can feel it right inside ur chest - it really shattered my heart into pieces.

speaking of angsty songs, leave. when I gave a first listen to the album I didn't really like this song. my first thought even when the unveil came out was "oh, this song doesn't belong in this album". but talking to a friend about it he made me realize it's kind of necessary to have a breath of fresh air among all the rough songs that rock-star has (cover me included). I still feel like the melody doesn't do much justice to the lyrics (it's a bit too cheesy for my like), and since I'm not that into this kind of pop I know this song just isn't for me. and that's okay sometimes. cuz many fans are way more into this vibe and most definitely love this song even over cover me.

last song - the korean version of social path. this will be kind of controversial to say but since the song has so many lyrics in English more than Korean (or Japanese in the original version), I still haven't decided which version sounds better. apart from that, I feel like the Korean version sounds way better in masterization - I'm not sure why though.

so that's it! remember to keep streaming the album in all the digital platforms you can, and since we are wrapping up another year things can get a bit stressful - it's okay if you can't dedicate it as much time as you'd like to. also remember to vote for skz in MAMA!!!!!

Social Path is such a good song! Stray Kids absolutely nailed that style of music.

Felix's voice goes so so well with this kind of music 😍

LiSA's voice is amazing and it's the perfect addition to the song.

The chorus is phenomenal. Both Bang Chan and Lee Know crushed it!

I aboslutely love it!

Their fans didn’t even know their beloved idols would have another album coming out soon, yet the members were already working hard on it. They were all very excited, even more than usual -and that was hard to achieve-, because they would be working with a famous japanese singer this time, LiSA. She was known for several things, some anime openings being on that extensive list and you could bet that some of the boys knew at least one or two of those songs by heart. They were too big of a weeb to not.

Amongst them the worst ones were Jisung and Bae, the two socially awkward anime fans. Just from the mere thought of meeting her had their palms turning clammy and their hearts speed up, but only after leaping into their throats. Thankfully or not, they wouldn’t be meeting with the famous singer for a while, needing to work on the songs on their own first.

“Can you believe it, Hyung? Not only did Chan hyung laugh at me when I accidentally messed something up while recording, but he shouted into the mic!”

It was Jisung complaining after his day of recording, his tired form draped over Bae’s. It wasn’t by the latter’s choice, since the young quokka attacked him and started acting like his personal blanket the moment their eyes met. Bae knew he had no choice but to accept his fate, the man too stubborn to leave him be.

“Aaaaaah, Baeeeee hyuuung, it was so horrible, I think I got permanent hearing damage.” - at this, Bae just looked at Jisung with a raised eyebrow.

“I know, I know, we’re loud, you say it all the time, but I’m serious this time! Gimme a kiss! I need someone to kiss it better!” - the younger asked shamelessly, doe eyes glistening as he was craning his head to look at Bae.

Now, Bae really loved his members, he truly did, and he would never hurt them purposefully, but the thought of just shoving Jisung down onto the floor from top of him did cross his head for a second. Maybe even two. But instead he just took a deep breath, slowly exhaling as he just got up from the couch -with the clingy squirrel in his hold, who just squeaked at this lightly- and pushed Jisung into Minho’s arms, who just arrived because he was visiting them for something.

He didn’t even wait and explain his actions -something that Minho and Jisung were both asking and whining for-, just straight up walked away and left to his room. Right until Chan got a hold of him, the kangaroo’s head peeking out through the small gap he opened his door to.

“Bae, can you please come in for a sec? I wanna discuss something about tomorrow’s recording.”

He didn’t need to be asked twice, his feet immediately turning and pivoting into Chan’s room, closing the door behind himself. He sat next to his hyung, who had his famous laptop in his lap, the screen illuminating both their faces in the darkness.

“I know you have excellent english, but I wanted to go over some lines before we record them tomorrow. Especially because some of them might be a bit too high for you at first.” - Chan explained, no ill intent in his voice.

Bae nodded as he listened to his leader talk, singing sometimes in a quiet voice, carving the melody and the words into his flesh. He knew Chan only wanted the best for him, so he wanted to do his best in return. They spent their time like that, not even noticing it was past midnight already, several hours passing by as they started discussing things in great detail. They went over the already recorded parts, thinking about how to tweak them slightly, how other parts needed to be recorded in the future.

Sometimes the aussie forgot that Bae wasn’t part of 3RACHA, since the younger always let him gush about music production, understanding and curiosity glistening in Bae’s eyes.

Soon they wrapped the impromptu meeting up, wishing the other goodnight, before inevitably meeting up the next day in the recording studio.

Bae arrived there early, wanting to warm up his voice in time before the recording. He greeted all the staff members, doing a double take when he saw not only Chan, but every member of 3RACHA in the chairs. Those sneaky bastards just grinned at him and waved, causing Bae to huff and start regretting his life choices. Because he knew there would be teasing to be had, even though they were also recording for STAY. Although that never stopped them before, so why would it now?

After successfully warming up his voice and tweaking with the settings a bit, Bae was ready and signalled for the others.

Chan only commented a few times, needing a bit of correction here and there: sometimes for the rhythm, sometimes for the feel of a few lines. They were usually solved in the next take, making everything go smoothly.

Right until the boys started playing around.

You see, Bae had this habit of doing tiny dance moves while singing, the choreography singed into his body for the song already. And every single time, Chan and/or the others would comment on it, purposefully pressing the button so Bae would hear it. Giggles and comments about how cute he was would fill his ears, dusting his cheeks pink, causing the others to react stronger. It was a hellish cycle, one that continued usually only until Bae would take off the headphones and turn away from them, staring up at the ceiling in silence. This way the others and himself would slowly calm down, otherwise he would have to record his lines while Changbin was shouting pickup lines at him.

He really wanted to get out of there.

“Okay, okay, that was good. Now you only need to sing the part everyone has, and you’re done. FIghting!” - Chan announced, urging Bae to look the lines over on the paper and nod.

It only took a single take, the others on the opposite side of the glass loudly voicing their opinions, as always.

“Wooow, that was perfect, Bae! You got the emotion down to a t.” - Chan said, his voice firm over the headphones.

“Of course, Hyung’s my boyfriend, he is perfect!” - Changbin added in, proudly standing there with a silly little smile on his face.

“What?! No, you greedy pig. You want Hyunjin and him both? He’s mine!” - Jisung whined back, causing Bae to huff and go over to calm them after waving tinily at the recording camera, seeing the staff members fighting a headache already.

It was always like that with Changbin, Bae getting a handful of headaches just from being in the studio with him, helping with the songs. The little dwaekki was always loud and voiced his opinions strongly, and Bae could only silently grimace as he went to go buy some apology drinks for the equally tired and suffering staff members. And for himself. Gods, did he not like coffee and its taste, but he downed a latte or two sometimes, just to get through those recording sessions.

“What’ll make you two stop?” - he tiredly asked, a sigh leaving his form once again.

“A kiss.” - they answered in perfect sync.

“Forget I asked. Good luck, Hyung.”

“What, wait, and where’s mine?”

But Bae was already out the door, done with the boys’ shenanigans for the day.
