3.5 greatresident kpop trash | March 3rd 18

A strong pop-singles album with solid solo outings from each member showcasing a good amount of experimentation and stylistic individuality within the confines of, well, k-pop. The issue remains that in general, despite the thematics and narrative supposedly directing this album, it feels largely like a compilation rather than a cohesive set. Overall though, if you're looking for bangers, well, you've got them, with the exception of some melodramatic pieces that have moments of sparkle but overall aren't particularly interesting like "First Love" and "Reflection," as well as the second half of the album feeling as though the group had to reset and push out more radio-oriented pieces that don't fit well with the first half of the album. Also, the horns used in 'Stigma' are the most grating horns in the world, but 'Lie' is a bop.

Wings does everything right for a k-pop album, from catchy upbeat house-influenced songs like Blood, Sweat & Tears, to heartfelt ballads in Lie and hard hitting raps in Cypher 4, the album has all the flavours mixed together with a fantastic result.

2.9 goodErwann S. STAFF | December 8th 20

Once again, this is a singles album, meaning each tracks' goal is to destroy the charts. Sometimes it works ("Lost", "2!3!"), sometimes not really ("21st Century Girl"). Compared to their first album, they refined their formula by fusing more efficiently hip hop, EDM, pop, and R&B. Also, each member's involvement in writing and producing allowed them to show their individual preferences, which makes for a rather diverse album, if more with a mixtape feel than a true album. Not everything works, as all members do not share the same artistic quality, but as a whole it's a good record.
