These days marks the debut of Dice Leisure’s In this day and age. They observe within the footsteps of company seniors Beast, BTOB and Pentagon, each and every of which debuted with a track very in line with their Ok-pop technology. Via all accounts, we’re now in Ok-pop’s 5th era, however the boisterous OoWee feels extra in step with the trade’s previous few years.
I’m lovely delicate to sound, and specific sounds have a tendency to set me on edge. Ok-pop boys shouting in unison has slowly grow to be a kind of triggers, making it arduous to revel in any track that employs this system. Sadly, shouty choruses appear to be sticking round, taking into account tricky choreography with out all that pesky making a song stepping into the way in which. OoWee is the umpteenth boy team monitor to heart itself round one of these chant. I suppose I will have to have identified from its onomatopoeia identify.
OoWee is ok. It tells me not anything about In this day and age beside the reality they may be able to do no matter everybody else is doing. The rap is ok. The beat is ok. The angle is ok. Alternatively, there’s no longer a unmarried component right here that makes me lean in nearer. It’s pre-packaged Ok-pop of essentially the most cynical type, protecting its loss of concepts with a slick efficiency and quirky song video.
