Thriller by BtoB album review


This is one of the last few albums that I received for Christmas. “Thriller” by BtoB is their third extended play album. The mini album was released in September of 2013 with the title song being Thriller. The name does remind me of Michael Jacksons Thriller. I think “WOW” was the first music video I watched and I loved it. I actually watched their MTV Diary and B+ Diary. it is sad to say but I wouldn’t have ever bought this album since it was a mini album and I kind of think they are a waste of money.
I’m not too sure how well know they are. The world of K-Pop is so competitive that groups can be lost between other debuts and comebacks. They debuted sometime on 2012. Their music video “WOW” that was released September 11, 2012 has almost ten million views. They are in the same record label as Beast, so it could be easy to get lost in their shadow and no that wasn’t a pun. I hope in the future they get more recognition for their talents.
The cover had a mechanical heart on it. Well since I have degree in nursing I find the cover very interesting. The album came up with a little postcard. I got Hyunsik’s card. I have to say he has a cute smile. The booklet had the same concept as the “Thriller” music video. It was a little dark but not a creepy Goth type dark. The Album also came with a poster.
The album contains six songs and all of the songs are really good. “Thriller” is what attracted me to the album but I enjoy every song. Other then “Thriller” I really liked “When I Was Your Man” and “Like a Crystal”. It’s a short album so it’s not like there are a lot of songs to pick from and I would have to say that all songs have to be good. I don’t have many mini albums and I just don’t think they are worth the money.
Would I recommend this album? I would recommend it. It was a good album filled with good songs. I know the review is short but it’s a mini album. There isn’t much to say about six songs.
