    I was a metal head before finding kpop and I am so excited!!!! This song is just amazing! The double pedal with the drums always gets me.

    I knew YB's vocal style. I heard the teaser. Yet my jaw was STILL on the fucking floor at just how heavy this turned out. Like, I know with the exception of Junsu and Ode most of them are longtime fans of all rock genres including metal, and Jungsu said in a live today that he's learned to love bands like Bring Me The Horizon they've covered before. But I just didn't expect them to really go this hard even with YB featuring.
    It feels soooo reminiscent of a lot of the 2000s metalcore, alt and heavy metal I grew up with. I get vibes of Karnivool, Disturbed, A Perfect Circle, Godsmack, even a little early Flyleaf w/ the way the screams/growls come in and contrast w/ the clean singing (the lyrics too kinda feel a little like Flyleaf, minus the vague jesusy vibes they always had). Even the aesthetic and editing of the mv makes my 35 yo ass feel like I've gone back in time. I never, ever thought I would find that specific brand of nostalgia in a Korean band which just amplifies my shock. Tho, I will say the members styling is still that signature over-the-top kpop spin on what a metal band would wear lol.
    If you're not familiar, the featured artist Yoon Dohyun of the band YB is a total legend in Korea (he does the growls/screams in the song). YB are kind of THE metal band, or at least from what I can tell the one that's had significant mainstream acceptance/success in the very conservative music market of Korea (tho, if anyone who's actually a korean metalhead wants to correct me on that, please do as I'm a baby noob in this pool). So him agreeing to feature on an XH song is kind of a huge deal. There's a video up on their channel where they basically have a jam session w/ Dohyun that is so fun, highly recommend checking it out. Plus, in it Dohyun tells them his band YB is having a comeback in a few months and asks XH to collab again on a song!
    Oh, and they are having another comeback in October! This was the 4th and final single in their Open Beta project where they had a weekend of concerts and released a new digital single at the start of the month for 4 months after their last album Troubleshooting dropped. If you haven't checked them out, the other singles are Boy Comics, Love & Fear, and Save Me. Years ago Day6 did a similar thing, tho much more extensive (I think it was 2 songs a month for 5 months, they've said it was an exhausting hellish time so I'm glad they scaled it down for XH). No idea if the upcoming comeback is for another mini ep, or a full album, or something inbetween w/ the 4 singles plus 4 or 5 new songs.

      Actually Day6 released two songs every 6th day of the month for 12 months or a whole year starting from January to December 2017, so a total of 24 songs.

    Xdinary Heroes direction right now makes me SO happy. It's amazing that a group under JYP, which is firmly a pop agency, can be creating music like this. They are definitely carving out their own niche in the kpop industry. And its a dream come true as someone who is a rock/hardcore fan who also loves kpop

      I went to their concert just this March. I had gone alone but quickly found out my seatmates were fellow metalheads and the entire show we were so confused because the people around us were sitting down unless the band themselves told us to stand (They would sit down during ments and then not stand up even when the band started playing again) We were lucky to have the 2 rows behind us empty though so we could stand and headbang, albeit more lightly than we wanted because we were getting side eyes as well lmao

    also, they did announce a new album in october! i'm not sure if it's just an ep or a full album, but there's speculation that this song and the other three Open Beta songs will be on it, so we don't know how many new songs there'll be

    The open beta you had asked about is what they call the collection of songs they’ve been releasing this year as part of “Xperiment Project”. It’s this thing they’ve been doing pretty much all of 2024 where they’ve been having concerts (known as closed beta) and releasing singles (open betas) every month. I’m a huge villain! Lmao

It was their first concerts in the US, and freakin jyp gives then 3 freaking nights!? They deserve so much more promotion. They were soooo good! When they sang Good Enough, we all sang the lyrics and they just stood there and smiled. Such a beautiful moment. I hope they come back and more people can see them!

    The VANE (더 베인) - Room No. 303
    YOARI (요아리) - Blow Off
    Isaac Hong (홍이삭) - Ruin
