Two genres that do not mix, in one track

EDM and metalcore do not usually appear in the same song. One moves the body with repeating rhythm; the other pushes sound forward with rough texture. They are built in different directions.

'DANG DANG' put both into one track — the texture of metalcore laid over the rhythmic feel of EDM.

Done this way, the song plays twice differently. Follow the rhythm and it is dance music; follow the texture and it is band music. Which way to hear it is left to the listener.

The title and the album name say the same thing

The album title 'UNBOUND' means not tied down. The message is about leaving standards and orders made by others and opening a course you choose yourself.

The title track's lyrics picture a voyage that throws itself into rough seas. Leaving and throwing yourself in make a pair.

Mixing genres says the same thing. Refusing to stay inside one genre shows up first in the sound.

Putting your name in the credits

The members took part in the lyrics and are credited on the production across the tracks.

When names enter production credits, the decisions about sound move inside. Which genres to mix, where to break — the team decides. Mixing genres and filling credits are connected choices.

The tour starts next month

The first world tour 'RISE UP' starts in Seoul on October 10, continuing to Europe in November and North America next January.

The tour's first show comes a month after the album. How the new songs open up on stage is something to check then.

Discovery notes

First play the title track following only the rhythm. Then play the same song following only the texture of the sound. Whether it plays twice differently is the first thing to check.

Then set the album title beside the lyrics. Not being tied down and throwing yourself into a storm point the same way.

Last, read the credits. The names in the production line are this album's core.

Just give it a listen, trust me.
