Group TXT is continuing its strong momentum in Spotify Pre-saves ahead of the release of their new album.
Their 9th mini album, ‘PERFECT STORM’, claimed the #1 spot on global music streaming platform Spotify’s ‘Top 10 Countdown’ for 20 consecutive days. After entering the chart just three days after its open on September 28, it reached the top on October 26 and has firmly maintained the position through November 14. Notably, the first-day figure reached approximately 3.5 times that of the previous work, and cumulative pre-saves surpassed 450,000 as of the 14th, proving global listeners’ high expectations for the new music.
The outline of the new album is also gradually revealing itself, heating up the comeback atmosphere. On the 12th, new lyrics for the title track ‘Angel Bite’ were unveiled via a spoiler site. Following previously revealed lines like ‘Even with nothing, I want to be with you’ and ‘Even if I throw up, right by your side’, new lyrics capturing the anxiety and love of youth, such as ‘I have nothing, what can I buy my future with?’ and ‘Even if it’s all ruined, I want to be with you’, were introduced. On the 13th, a music video teaser added even more heat to the anticipation.
‘PERFECT STORM’, set for release at 6 PM on the 16th, deals with the growing pains of Z-generation youths entering their 20s. The title track ‘Angel Bite’ is a ‘TXT-style love song’ that intuitively expresses the mind of not letting go of a precious person despite the deprivation of reality. The album features a total of six tracks, including ‘Storm is…’, ‘Higher Love’, ‘Sweetest Escape’, ‘Touch the Sky’, and ‘Hate It or Love It’.
Meanwhile, TXT successfully held their fifth world tour Seoul concert at the KSPO DOME in Olympic Park, Seoul, from the 13th to the 15th. Starting from here, they will expand their stage to Asia, Japan, North America, and Europe, and in December, they plan to join the US ‘2026 iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Tour’ to continue their relentless global activities.
