The band Dragon Pony shouts a fervent wish in the middle of imperfect youth.
Dragon Pony released the full audio of their third EP 'RUN RUN RUN(런런런)' and the music video for the title track 'Ah, everything goes my way!' at 6 p.m. on the 10th on various music streaming sites.
This is their first new release in about eight months since the digital single 'Earth Boy' released in July last year, and with three team members born in the year of the horse lined up, Dragon Pony put strong ambitions in the album to make this year their year.
Dragon Pony's new release 'RUN RUN RUN' is like a milestone continuing the 'coming-of-age narrative of imperfect youth' that Dragon Pony has consistently portrayed. Rather than agonizing over countless choices with no right answer, the message of running where the heart leads offers deep empathy to young people living in the same era.
As with previous works, all members served as main producers on this EP as well, taking charge of lyric writing, composition and arrangement for every track, reaffirming their presence as a 'self-producing band.'
The title track 'Ah, everything goes my way!' contains the members' cry to live true to themselves rather than conforming to standards set by the world. From the technically fluent guitar riffs that capture the ear from the intro to the richly laid-out instrumental sounds, it emits a powerful energy that draws the listener in like a spell the more you hear it.
Just reset everything to the beginning / I just want to hold it in my hands / I want to laugh freely like that / I want to be happy like that / I want to breathe easily / (Ah, everything goes my way!) / GO GET IT NOW / JUST FORGET IT NOW / Clear it all away / (Ah, everything goes my way!) / GO GET IT NOW / and JUST FORGET IT NOW / Empty it all out / (Ah, everything goes my way!)
The music video released together dynamically depicts the four members breaking the shackles of surveillance and repetition in daily life and enjoying true freedom. The visual sense of liberation combined with the intense band sound hints at Dragon Pony's continuing musical trajectory and gives listeners a thrilling shiver.
Through 'RUN RUN RUN,' Dragon Pony proved how to meet the world at their own pace. Now that they have just released the reins and begun to sprint, expectations are growing about what footprints their music will leave on the music scene this year.
