DAY6 subunit Even of Day discussed the group’s new music at an online showcase Monday.
Young K, Wonpil and Dowoon put out their second EP, Right Through Me, about 10 months after their previous EP, The Book of Us: Gluon -- Nothing Can Tear Us Apart.
The title track mixes strong sounds based on ‘90s hip-hop rhythms and jazzy codes into a balladic sentiment popular in the same period. The melody strikes a sharp contrast with heart-wrenching lyrics.
“I can recommend this EP with confidence since we’ve put a lot of effort into preparing it, ” said Young K.
Both the band and the subunit have been singing of different moments in different lives.
“We wanted to send out empathy and consolation even when we’re singing about sadness, ” said Wonpil, not simply comforting, but like a friend who offers to take the next step together.
As for the meaning of the title, Young K explained that the straightforward expression says how small things can pierce through us and make us fall apart. – The Korea Herald/Asia News Network
