The plot has thickened for Tomorrow X Together! The group released their new album The Chaos Chapter: FREEZE yesterday, picking up right where their previous release minisode 1 : Blue Hour left off.
It’s a cold world, and The Chaos Chapter: FREEZE tells a tale of a boy who has become frozen due to the chaos and turmoil unfolding around him. But despite this, love still prevails, and he realizes it’s one of the only forces on Earth that will never fade.
The album opens with “Anti-Romantic,” a story about a boy who makes every last attempt to not develop feelings for someone. Ultimately, he can’t stop himself, and decides to just roll with it rather than questioning it. The track serves as an incredible transition into “0X1=LOVESONG (I Know I Love You) feat. Seori,” where the boy finally confesses his feeling of love for ‘you.’
If you’re a firm believer in the pop/rock TXT agenda, you won’t be able to help but love this song either! RM of BTS, Mod Sun, and HYBE’s very own Slow Rabbit and “Hitman Bang” helped pen the song, which brings out one of Tomorrow X Together’s most passionate performances yet. If you can feel it in the song, you’ll especially feel it in the music video!
Since their debut in 2019, Tomorrow X Together’s passion for their craft has skyrocketed. With each project, the group dives deeper and deeper into topics and concepts that reflect their growth as artists and young men. The Chaos Chapter: FREEZE is a testimony to this growth, and it sounds and feels as authentic as can be.
Each member of TXT had their hands in the creative process of assembling this album, helping to write, compose, and even produce the songs! For example, Soobin helped write “Ice Cream,” while Yeonjun helped come up with some lyrics for “Frost.” Yeonjun, Taehyun, and Beomgyu also helped write “What if I had been that PUMA.” Yeonjun and Beomgyu returned with their pens for “No Rules,” this time joined by Hueningkai. He helped write “Dear Sputnik” with Taehyun, and also earned his very first production credit through this song.
TXT will never be caught doing the ‘same old, same old,’ because the world is never in the same state either. With every member having their hands on deck, the group was able to sail into a new sonic territory. It’s very refreshing knowing that TXT are trying to come up with a unique listening experience every time, and The Chaos Chapter: FREEZE is the biggest receipt to support such a statement.
We did indeed lose the summer last year, but Tomorrow X Together totally made up for that. If this era means we’re heading straight into the winter, the guys are surely going to keep us warm and cozy with The Chaos Chapter: FREEZE.
