It’s been over a 12 months because the final album from VIVIZ in VERSUS, and whereas they’ve performed their first US tour in that point, nothing would put together us for his or her evolution with VOYAGE. Off the excessive of the not too long ago introduced GFRIEND reunion, Buddies have been consuming fucking good with the high three Korean magnificence Sowon going again to updating her YouTube channel and Yerin’s latest launch, and it’s now VIVIZ’s flip to point out us a brand new facet of them.
Now I do know with the discharge of “Maniac” and “Untie” they’ve been leaning extra into that horny idea Eunha yearned for years in the past in GFRIEND. With “Shhh!” I’m blissful to say VIVIZ have appeared to discovered their distinctive sound. From the addictive refrain to its hypnotic versus. I used to be captivated from first hear straightaway, VIVIZ take no time shoving this idea in your face and getting you addicted. “Shhh!” Is a big departure from what an informal fan of GFRIEND and even VIVIZ earlier songs .and VIVIZ personal this idea from Kany‘s choreography to their iconic vocals, “Shhh” is not only an audible deal with however a visible feast as nicely.
As for the remainder of the album, I notably cherished “Full Moon” and “Hypnotize“, the latter of which KISS OF LIFE‘s Belle helped with composing. “Love & Tears” is a ballad to cap off an exquisite mini album which begs the query of when are we going to be graced with a VIVIZ full album? “Cliché” is a tune I may’ve seen them utilizing because the title, and can be inquisitive about seeing in the event that they promote this one in any respect after “Shhh!”
Total, VIVIZ return with one other unbelievable mini that I can’t wait to hearken to once more, increasing on their earlier successes, the women are growing their very own sound departing them farther from Gfriend with every new launch. I’ve fond recollections of waking up early to hearken to “Navillera” on launch, anticipating their new tune after how impactful “Tough” was. “Shhh!” gave me that very same nostalgic feeling, and I hope this launch additional solidifies VIVIZ as VIVIZ and never some extension of Gfriend.
