someone else said this album sounds "sophisticated" and it really does. i don't mind the simple beats as hikki's vocals carry the songs alone, and even in their simplicity they are catchy and interesting enough.

i really dig the vibe here, chillest utada album to date (i am pretending there is no skrillex remix included)

the b-sides, however, really drag this one down, which for some reason tends to be a common thing on solo rv projects, none of them really stand out to me and i always struggle to remember their names, the only remarkable b-side on ... read more

yeah its all ballads, but i just keep coming back to this ep

when this rain stops definitely being a major highlight for me, i think all these songs have a particular sound that make them stand out, and they definitely display wendy's voice in a nice way. the last track featuring seulgi is probably the weakest of the bunch, as much as seulgi is my favorite vocalist in red velvet, i just cant get into it that much

either way this is a really comforting listen

the more i listen to this one the more i like it.

despite birthday being one of their weakest title tracks with messy instrumentals and a really odd sample, the b-sides make up for it, specially bye bye, zoom and celebrate. the playful instrumentals here make the most of red velvet's amazing vocals in ways he really hadn't heard before while keeping the signature rv sound. overall, it's a fun ride.
