Love this cute EP so much! So many bops on here. Every song is good except "glow" but it has a cute outro.
Love the production and new concept Silver's going for.
My faves are definitely ghosts!, disappear and crowd
Can we talk about the title track though? CRAZY stuff and looks like EVERGLOW finally redeemed themselves after releasing 2 dubstep singles. The title track is definitely one of the top Kpop songs of the year and the song's 2nd verse is probably the best Kpop verse of the year!
The singles except for Salt, Torn and SBP - let's not talk about them since theyre literally just carbon copies of SBP.
The album tracks are what surprised me. At this rate, I expected all the tracks to sound like SBP but most of them (except for Call me tonight & Take u to hell) sound like SBP so I was very happy with that.
Overall a solid pop debut but Ava rlly needs to stop reusing that SBP formula - it's very annoying and overwhelming.

![Christina Aguilera - Reflection (2020) [from "Mulan"]](https://cdn2.albumoftheyear.org/100x0/album/275206-reflection-2020-from-mulan.jpg)
The introduction with the strings is absolutely stunning. The vocals + instrumental is beautiful. Perfect for mulan!
Scream was such a godly song between them both but unfortunately it looks like they lost their magic touch. Still enjoyable songs tho but I really wish they could return to the style of Scream.
So so so good. The harp instrumentals makes this song stand out so much. Pure pop perfection
Title track's chorus sucks ass but at least the verses are cute. Dont give a what shouldve been the title track but anyways...
The rest of the tracks are meh. They sounds like every other made ITZY song. Too much shouting singing which is very annoying IMO. They need to switch up their sound like RV or Twice do all the time. We need more tracks like "Cherry". At least "Surf" sounds diff from the rest of the songs but it couldve been so much better
A very enjoyable and groovy debut album by Victoria. Love how she intertwines R&B with disco/retro elements
It sounds way too safe and generic. Expected better from Ella but it was still an enjoyable record.
I guess it's good to listen to in the night or on a summery calm day...for some reassurance of relaxation but other than that I won't see myself listening to this over proper music albums.
Nevertheless, Lana's dreamy and heartbroken voice shines through along with her euphoric writing.
"Friends "sounds like "Dear Society" by Madison Beer mixed with some Chloe Lilac song.
Her voice isn't particularly good or distinguishable from other teen pop artists...This EP is rather safe and nothing particularly interesting. Songs aren't that catchy/memorable either.
Let me just say that this album seriously surpassed my expectations. Though "Close to Me" and "Hate Me" were top tier pop songs and were one of the best songs of 2018 and 2019 respectively imo, I was not very excited for the album after she dropped "Worry About Me", however the first part of the album is completely different.
Definitely one of the best albums of 2020. The lyrics are so euphoric, dreamy but also personal/diary-like and the melodies and production ... read more
The production really saved this EP. It's lowkey and vibey and more consumable than her debut album imo. But it's the same no risks taken type of R&B. Not so great but no bad either, just ok.
