| | | what's up everybody, moist chrocktikal here

As a friend said, company has always struggled with names lmao.
| | | Album's out : https://www.deezer.com/br/album/893245162 and I've made the database entry if anyone cares
| | | yeah, it's okay, there are various questionable project names in Kpop. the album is okay, but nothing special IMO. it would've been nice had they stuck around as Dreamcatcher for a few more years, things were going good for them. they were fun live too
| | | Feel like (at least some of) the members really wanted to try different things - the money was always there but idol life is pretty grueling.
In Siyeon's case, she always had rock band dreams so this feels a bit like a passion project.
I'm really liking the album but I do wish the track list was a bit different, the second half slows down considerably. Siyeon and Wonseok are clearly fresh as producers so I imagine they can refine this style further if they stick around.
| | | True, the idol lifestyle takes its toll on most people in the industry. Plus, Dreamcatcher strayed from rock in the last 2-3 years of activities, becoming more "mainstream". At this point, Siyeon should consider serious touring, it helps more for rock bands than kpop style promotional activities.
| | | They're preparing some lucky draw events for europe, definitely testing the waters for touring. Dreamcatcher was one of the first low/medium popularity girl groups to lean heavily on international touring, so hopefully DCC has not unlearned the lesson.
