'Performance-style idol' 82MAJOR(82MAJOR, Namsungmo·Park Seok-jun·Yun Ye-chan·Jo Seong-il·Hwang Seong-bin·Kim Do-gyun) returns with a more deeply developed musical color. The mini fifth album FEELM, to be released on the 28th, is a new record in which the members participated in producing all tracks and fully captured the emotions on and off stage, drawing high expectations from the music industry.
82MAJOR(82MAJOR, ) will release the mini fifth album FEELM on the 28th at 6 p.m. through various online music sites. On the album release day, the 28th, they will hold a showcase concert at 8 p.m. to communicate directly with fans and formally kick off their activities.
This new record, presented about six months after the previous work, draws attention because it records the precious emotions encountered on and off stage.
The new record FEELM combines 'Feel' and 'Film' to express the idea of developing various emotional moments onto a single film. 82MAJOR captured fans' attention before the comeback by presenting sensory teaser content themed on film. In particular, the 'touch film,' where members' movements change according to screen touches, was praised as a fresh attempt that broke the existing mold, and the concept photos, which made strong use of black-and-white contrast, raised expectations for the new transformation they will show.
The visual enjoyment continues in the music video. The title track 'Sign' music video piques curiosity with a unique opening using a news flash, and it hints at a film-like narrative through a crowd with pink eyes and a dystopian background. The members' appearances, sending their own signals using symbolic objects such as guns made of flowers and flares amid secretive movements, heighten curiosity about the main piece to its peak.
Above all, this album can be said to be the definitive proof of 82MAJOR's 'step-by-step growth.' All five tracks included, from the title track 'Sign' to 'W.T.F', 'CAGE', 'CIRCLES' and 'YESSIR!', list the members' names in the lyrics, composition and arrangement credits. The wide musical spectrum that crosses genres such as jazz, Vaille punk, and house shows that they have reborn as true 'self-producing idols' beyond simple performers. Having recently completed successful tours in Japan and five European countries and strengthened their global standing, the new musical world they will unfold through this release is receiving even more attention.<
