REVERXE

The album kicks off powerfully with the title track ‘Crown’. EXO taps into their edgier side, merging EDM, rock, and trap elements into an explosive, genre-defying anthem. As expected, the vocals are top-tier, smooth, commanding, and packed with charisma.

Back It Up’ keeps the momentum going, maintaining an alternative, bass-heavy core with bold synth brass and dynamic beat transitions. The harmonic rapping and chant-like vocals bring an electric energy that keeps the listener fully engaged.

Next, ‘Crazy’ takes things in a more experimental direction. With a gradual build-up, smooth drops, and a vibrant outro, it’s one of the album’s most unexpected yet satisfying moments.

Suffocate’ slows the pace but elevates the mood with sleek synth textures and airy vocals. The track’s seamless transitions and shifting rhythms create an immersive sonic experience, one that feels intimate yet cinematic.

With ‘Moonlight Shadows’, EXO gifts fans an emotional R&B moment. The group’s harmonies and vocal layering are simply breathtaking, reminding listeners why they remain one of K-pop’s strongest vocal teams.

Then comes ‘Back Pocket’, an infectious blend of pop and R&B. It’s playful and groovy, with crisp harmonies and rhythmic rapping that strike the perfect balance between sophistication and fun.

The mood brightens even more with ‘Touch & Go’, a synth-driven, upbeat tune that feels youthful and refreshing. Its pacing and vocal arrangement make it an easy standout.

EXO introduces pop-rock into the mix with ‘Flatline’, a heartfelt and melodic track that feels reminiscent of a Chanyeol solo. It’s emotional yet light, showcasing the members’ warm tones and expressive delivery.

Finally, the pre-release single ‘I’m Home’ closes the album on a pop-ballad note. Its delicate piano instrumentals and emotional vocals provide a perfect, introspective ending to an album that balances power with vulnerability.

With ‘REVERXE’, EXO proves once again why they are SO POPULAR. The album is diverse, dynamic, and vocally flawless, combining innovation creativity. While fans may miss the voices of EXO-CBX, the current lineup shines brilliantly, delivering one fantatsic album.
