Like many boy teams of their stature, The Wind shall be sending a member off to compete within the upcoming season two of Boys Planet. Thanatorn shall be absent for promotions throughout this time and — if he makes the eventual group — for fairly a while after. Earlier than that, the group is celebrating their anniversary with particular single Howdy Tomorrow (안녕 내일). This annual launch has change into a convention, following final yr’s Sirius Half 2.
Although these tracks are fan songs by nature, I recognize how each have been upbeat and in step with The Wind’s total sound. Sirius Half 2, particularly, felt as if it may have been certainly one of their title tracks. As compared, Howdy Tomorrow is extra throwaway. Its breezy pop beat chugs alongside properly however with out actual consequence as equally light-weight melodies supply candy sentiments excessive. After I consider The Wind at their greatest, I hear punchy — typically ornate — instrumentals and melodies full of thrilling peaks. Howdy Tomorrow is subdued on every of those fronts, however I suppose that shouldn’t be shocking given its function. Nonetheless, with the group’s rapid future in flux I’m desperate to squeeze as a lot wonderful music from them as attainable earlier than issues change an excessive amount of.
