Reboot is considered a kpop classic and it's one of my personal favourite albums. It was the comeback album from Wonder Girls after a 3 year hiatus. Members Sunye and Sohee had left, but Sunmi had come back, with the other 3 members being Yeeun, Yubin and Hyerim. These 4 members learned to play instruments to promote as a band and participated in the lyrics and production of each song. They had individual teasers with them playing their instruments, which I absolutely love, before the release of the title track, I Feel You. Wonder Girls had done retro concepts before but Reboot took it to a new level, each song being influenced by 80s pop music, becoming a true concept album, which I feel is relatively rare in kpop, at least for the time. The album has the playful, flirty, and charismatic songs like Candle, Baby Don't Play, Loved, and John Doe, the melancholic and ethereal Rewind (which I think having a bit of a resurgence) and Faded Love, the dramatic and atmospheric One Black Night (Yeeun sounds amazing on this), the fun Back and Oppa, and ends with the slow burn mid tempo and ballad Gone and Remember, which feature some nice vocal layering and harmonization. I actually made a post about the album for its 5th anniversary. Its interesting to go back and see what my thoughts were back then. Five years ago I said Candle, One Black Night and Faded Love were my favourites and today I would say Faded Love takes the top spot, I just love the melancholic feel. Even after 10 years I still regularly listen to most songs on this album, I just never get tired of them, they still sound fresh and inspired. I am sad that the Wonder Band was a relatively short era before disbandment but I am at least glad it gave us such an amazing album, and followed up by another amazing comeback with Why So Lonely. What are your favourites from the album? And if you've never listened to it I highly recommend it. submitted by /u/Xrin8 [link] [comments]
