Track Listing
- Siren
1. Siren
Oh boy, well I guess to kind of do a pre-release before their next drop, they FINALLY dropped Siren which is extended, but by god is the song still short as fuck, only making 2:30 in length (which is arguably only 10 seconds shorter than “Get A Guitar”). Now since this was pre-debut, Siren was definitely a hype-bomb with it’s aggressive arrangement and heavily 90’s urban sound that caught everyone off. I still love the first half of the song (the original bit that we heard), it’s just that latter half felt kind of lazy and thrown together without much thought going on. Like nothing worked together. Add in that Seunghan is nowhere to be found (despite being in the original), this just kind of feels…too lacking for me.
Yikes, I don’t think this was the right direction to take Siren. I think a bit more time should’ve been spent smoothing out the edges and not cobbling ideas together. This is why I’m not a big fan of short clips being teased for months and then a “fuller” version is just thrown together for a quick buck, this just wasn’t it…Though mmmm, it’s nice to have Siren at least released, but damn…the digital single could’ve thrown in the short version too…
