NCT's overwhelming message to the bright future, "Golden Age"
"Various combinations and colors." NCT's unique album!
The first title song "Baggy Jeans" is a hip-hop dance song featuring the members' unique voices over the heavy bass line, minimal drums, and dreamy textured synthesizers, and the lyrics compare the confidence that no one can imitate to Baggy Jeans.
The second title song "Golden Age" is a reinterpretation of Beethoven's piano sonata No. 8 "Bichang," and the composition of intense trap beats and elegant piano melodies is impressive, and the hopeful lyrics and rich harmony of the members make us look forward to a bright future are overwhelming.
"Call D" is a hyper-pop song that tells the story of being instinctively led by a doppelganger who looks like him even though he knows it's a dangerous situation, and "PADO" is a hip-hop song that expresses the intense feelings of his loved one in a cheerful way.
The lyrics of "Interlude: Oasis," which creates a unique atmosphere with dreamy sounds and lyrics to move toward a golden future, "The BAT," a hyper-pop genre that compares the black car crossing the night to Batman's batcar, and the hip-hop song "Alley Oop," which speedily unravels the message of always running to victory.
In addition, Bach's Fuga samples BWV 578 in G minor, That's Not Fair, a medium tempo pop song, Kangaroo, comparing everyday as if it was a birthday, and R&B, which conveys a warm message of comfort and support to everyone struggling, are heard.Tracklist[]
