  • Release date: 2025 August 11

  • Album tracklist: New, You Never Met, Storm, BOYtude, Instant Chemistry, EGO : Limitless, Adolescence 

  • Album runtime: 17 minutes

 For this trio of music reviews because idntt has an overachieving company, I'm not rehashing all of it. That can be found on the review for their debut track, You Never Met. I will say, though, that despite my approaching concerns, they have not been put on Underage Protocol.

Interesting. Also, I've already forgotten what You Never Met sounds like. That's probably not a good thing considering I just listened to it for the review I posted literally yesterday. Ooh, I like this combination of sounds. I like this one. This one has an excellent flow to it, with a delightful combination of textures and instruments. Not going to lie, I was kind of wrinkling my nose a little at the very beginning, but basically as soon as they started singing, that went away, and I had mentally tucked it away into one of those fake-out intros. It came back, though, and it worked really well underneath the vocals. Huh. Oh, I could happily just pop this song on repeat and leave it there. It's been a while since I've covered a song that makes my brain this happy.

Once again, we don't have a big belt or any big showcase of vocal prowess, but we do have some fun vocal runs and touches of vibrato, along with some vocal layering. If only the songwriters had written in a dance break, this would be so far in my wheelhouse that it's just not even funny. But vocally? This is a solid song and it's a great balance of rap and vocals. Very well written and it shows off the members well. Why wasn't this the title track?

Okay, so it's basically mostly a performance video than a proper music video, which is fine. The choreography has some really cool bits to it that remind me of Lucifer by SHINee, which was not on my 2025 K-Pop Choreography Bingo Sheet. Nice. This one was good.
