Recommended Posts

Im not commenting on the full on thesis of Lesserafim not having a “musical identity”…… but i do have a bone to pick with HYBE for putting all those old songs on their album and ruining the tracklist :biblio:

Le Sserafim were doing that kind of music even before NewJeans debut

 


And NewJeans didn’t invent that teaser concept, it was done they were even born with The Virgin S#icides

If they can't carve their own niche and find their own sound and pace after 2 years, chances are they won't later either. :deadbanana2:

 

Allegedly, Unforgiven concluded a trilogy and Easy is a new era.

 

Yet, everything released so far gave nothing but more of the same, with fewer clothes on. I wonder why.

Their niche is just pop music and bops, same as IVE

as others mentioned, perfect night sounds like the usual chill b sides that they have

the only thing that was remotely similar to NJ is the beginning of the choreo where they are talking to each other

What musical identity do IVE have that makes them more *creative* than LSRFM?

IVE are the ABBA of Kpop though, with their strong melodies and straight up pop sound. The "Ooohh" part in Love Dive could low key sound like and ABBA sample for example

I'll have you know it's a popular opinion on social media, I'm a bit surprised some people here disagree.

Am I wrong, though?

Unforgiven teasers were the biggest whiplash in recent times in Kpop and a clear example of overcompensating for the mid release with expensive marketing and style over substance.

Other labels would have put more thought, spent more time and money on the album and comeback itself and less on the teasers.

I actually don't disagree with you about the fact LE SSERAFIM doesn't have a remarkable musical identity and direction, but at the same time, I don't see It as a problem If It's working for them. If they are being successful and there is a solid audience for them being the way they are, then It's the right way to go.

Their previous releases were a mixed bag and those teasers hint at more mixed bags. More questions? :gaycat5:

You're not actually saying anything of substance. I'll give it to you that Unforgiven lacked direction but Easy will be their most cohesive project since Fearless judging by the sound.

If I'm wrong and their next album is great and turn lesserafim into the baddest reggaeton queens they are, we win.

If I'm right, and they give another undercooked release, I win.

Either way, it's a win.

I have been anticipating all their releases so far and stayed hopeful, but I don't see much improvement on that front, and i think it's too bad.

I remember the day Attention was released, that everyone including myself were claiming that it was NewJeans who was "copying" LE SSERAFIM, since Attention had a very minimalistic and chill sound like Fearless

Le Sserafim definitely had a musical identity during their first two eras, the decline started with Unforgiven

The Little NewJeansters (what’s their base called? Cookies or something?) are rapidly approaching Stink level delusions of grandeur and victimhood complex

 

Except it took the Stinks several years to start acting like everybody wanted to copy and/or destroy Blackpink, the Cookies are speedrunning
