>IVE - SECRET first impressions

>XOXZ
Not a fan of the chorus hook or the verses. Feels empty. Kinda dissapointed. Not good.
>Wild Bird
Fun instrumental, drums are really loud for some reason. Structure is interesting, a few cool switchups. Melodically very basic ballad but the production saves it.
>Dear, My Feelings.
Classic obligatory snoozepop track. I don't mind it though it's very vibey. First one i really like.
>GOTCHA (Baddest Eros)
funny title. Noisepop. Whisper chorus. NMIXX? Don't know how this fits in with the rest of the album so far. Not sure what to think.
>Ppibip (beats)
The beep sample they use is so low quality it distracts from the song. A shitty mix really holds this one back. Had potential.
>Midnight Kiss
Slower track, vocal focused. Nothing too unique but well executed. Classic IVE. Good

Overall: Mixed bag, ended up a bit disappointing, thought I would like this one more than I did. Some weird mixing issues idk if anyone else noticed that? Maybe the title will grow on me once they start promoting
