Toward the end of the broadcast, the members shared their overwhelming feelings about beginning full-scale comeback activities, stating, “We have returned with a new album after 6 months. We are always sincerely grateful to Villains [fandom name], who wait for us with every album. We think this is an album born from a lot of musical contemplation, sincere effort, and growth. We hope this album becomes something that gives strength, excitement, and serves as a cozy friend to those who listen to it, and we ask for your much love. Please look forward to our future stages as well.”
This new album ‘IMPULSE’ multi-dimensionally highlights the instinctive emotions of human inner depths. Through the EDM rock genre title track ‘Obsessed with Youth’, which coexists with lyricism and explosive energy, they sing of the shining moments and yearnings of youth.
