MV Review- Red Velvet Continue To Confuse Everyone With "Automatic"


SM seem to be determined to confuse us as much as possible with Red Velvet, first they announced Yeri would be joining the group and now out of NOWHERE SM have decided to release an MV for "Automatic", which is an album track on their upcoming first album, "Ice Cream Cake". So far it's been rather ambiguous as to what Red Velvet's overall image would become as their previous singles "Happiness" and "Be Natural" were worlds apart in both sound and style. It's a good thing this is just a pre-release though, because "Automatic" does nothing to show what Red Velvet are really about.

MV Review- Rainbow's "Black Swan" Is Easily the Strangest Single This Year


Nineteen months. It has been nineteen months since Rainbow released "Rainbow Syndrome Part 2" and since then all we've had was the debut of sub-unit Rainbow Blaxx, who despite a solid mini album failed to compete with Girl's Day, AOA, or even Dal Shabet. After being overtaken even by rookie groups such as Red Velvet and MAMAMOO, it seemed all hope for Rainbow was long gone, and they'd be left to hang around the "borderline" tier forever. After a painfully long wait they've finally returned, but a lot of people have been sorely disappointed, and I'm not surprised, because "Black Swan" truly is a peculiar song, and I've had to rewrite this review twice because of it.
