Our favorite pop rock girls from Dreamcatcher are back with their new mini-album ‘[Dystopia : Road to Utopia]’. Let’s dive right in because I’ve been anticipating this one.
[Dystopia : Road to Utopia]
We start with ‘Intro’ which goes hard with the EDM and swept me off my feet. There’s definitely a sense of urgency and malcontent that is threaded throughout the entire album.
Next up is the title track ‘Odd Eye’. We get a mix of rock and hip-hop with some distorted electric guitar that adds to the vibe so much. This track slaps hard y’all. The vocals soften it up a little bit and this is definitely going in my top favorite title tracks. Also I’m thrilled that all the girls are together again.
‘Wind Blows’ mixes cyberpunk and rock and it’s so dope. It gives me major anime opening vibes and I am living for it.
The following track ‘Poison Love’ is all about toxicity and being obsessed with the idea of love. The rap verses are so, so cool. They play with the intensity of the music and get you to hyperfocus on the voices. Kind of how you pay extra attention to someone who whispers instead of someone who’s shouting.
‘4 Memory’ is one of the softest songs I’ve heard Dreamcatcher do so far. It plays along the lines of electric and acoustic pop. Their vocals have a chance to shine in lower registers which is hella nice.
After that we get ‘New Days’ which blesses us with a fabulous electric guitar intro. Another single that fits the ‘running anime opening’ vibe. I feel like I’m going to watch an epic school adventure anime. This is so lovely and kind of makes me wish for a GFRIEND/Dreamcatcher collab. I’m speaking it into existence or writing I should say.
The last track on the album is the instrumental version of ‘Odd Eye’.
