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 was on holiday and happened to be in a department store, I noticed a MV on one of the store's TVs. I asked the assistant who they are he just said that they are Korean.
A year later I was asked by someone if I had heard of the Korean guy who had made a MV in which he is doing a funny dance. They told me that this guy was becoming really popular. I had not seen the MV or heard the song and so I was dismissive of this person's recommendation. But they insisted that I really should see it. So when I got home I searched YT and found it. After watching it (Gangnam
Style), I noticed the thumbnails of MVs from a group called Girls' Generation and recognised one of their MVs (Genie, Japanese version) from the previous year when I was in the department store. After watching Girls Generation I clicked on other groups like Fx and that's how I got into Kpop.

Yes I'm from Wales. I'm not a Maniac Street Preachers fan.
