IVE Secret Album
Added 2025-08-27 16:55:02 +0000 UTCDefinitely an improvement!
I actually really love the title track. It grew on me as it went along and I saw myself really getting in to it with it's unusual production! Starship are not playing when it comes to the music their releases atm. Everything is so alienlike and poppy but with grit.
It's also nice seeing the balance between the members. It feels like styling and camera wise, everyone is getting their moments which is great.
I would've loved the energy to stay throughout the album and I'd rather they avoid the more hip hop leaning songs tbh and it would've been great to maintain more of that experimentation throughout but at least I enjoyed it more than the Rebel hearts album.
Enjoy!
Oh so people don’t care about IVE huh? No thoughts?

The song I like the most from the album is definitely XOXZ, although I am a bit disappointed that they have removed the final part of the song in the performances. And I agree with you, they should take advantage of Liz, she has a good voice and they always leave her behind, and I think they could do better things with her voice.

2025-08-31 22:43:20 +0000 UTCI’m so bias when it comes to IVE I literally enjoy almost all of what they put out. Soooo my thoughts don’t matter 🥲🥲 I wonder if you’d like Cravity, it’s Starships boygroup, I’ve been a huge fan of them for a while, they some som hits and some I don’t like as much but they are in a consistent rotation for me.

2025-08-31 19:52:19 +0000 UTCI love long comments esp ones with paragraphs lol!! Yes starship has been NAILINGGG it!! I really hope they allow vocals to stand out more in future bsides.

2025-08-31 02:19:06 +0000 UTCYeah I really loved the title track too, I feel like it's got so much character and that's kinda not something to take for granted these days...also !! I think while being something new and experimental it also feels very ive to me, like in my head xoxz is like kitsch/love dive/heya love child idk if it makes sense lol As for the other songs I feel like they were good but still i don't think they are on the same level with some of my favourite bsides from them, but we'll see in time. And I also agree with what you said about liz vocals like I don't think they are fully taking advantage of her abilities when it comes to b-sides witch is a shame cause they could do SO MUCH. Overall I agree with you about starship, cause as much as I do NOT like that company I think they are really bringing it lately like I really love what they've been putting out with ive but also with kiiikiii and cravity as well (I kinda feel like you should give them a look btw) Anywaysss sorry for the long ass (and probably delirious) comment I'm usually more of a quiet watcher lol but I've travelled ALL DAY today I feel like idek what I'm doing anymore 🥲 Love your reactions and your insights, they're always so interesting and fun to watch, byee 🫶🏻

2025-08-30 22:20:40 +0000 UTCI reaaally enjoyed the Title Track! Iam kinda surprised it gets so much hate but i guess it depends on everyone’s taste? The b-sides are nice but i dont think there’s anything i would rush to listen to again, maybe it will hit differently when they perform it live though. I really enjoyed their vocals this whole album especially leeseo’s! They all sound so mature in a way? idk how to describe it haha. Iam also so happy that everyone has equal lines!!! I prayed for times like this cause gaeul usually has like no lines at all. This is my first time writing such a long comment since english isn’t my first language but i hope you can understand what i mean! I’am trying🫣 and also thank you for always giving honest reactions its really authentic and lots of fun to watch your analysis!! ^^
