They named GFRIEND's new album Labyrinth, their first song on the album is called Labyrinth and their title track is... Crossroads? Dafuq BigHit. Crossroads was forgettable, but let's talk about Labyrinth, shall we? What a great song. I'm getting those early 2000s Dance Pop vibes from those synths. I hope they're gonna promote this song as well as the title track. It deserved to be the title track.
I really liked Eclipse from GFRIEND's latest album too. Upbeat, yet melancholic sounding. It kinda reminded me Sunrise. The ending was way too sudden though. As if they couldn't come up with a decent ending and just decided to stop recording lol.
From Me was also cute. GFRIEND always has great albums.

The Top 10 B-sides of 2019 list is still very barebones at the moment. Only 5 songs have 3 or more mentions, a few songs with two mentions interspersed, and a ton of 1 off mentions.
If you posted a top 10 b-side with your top 20 of 2019, I have not seen them. Please repost those or direct me to your list.
February 5, 2020 is the last day to submit. EST time.

Listened to all of Everglow's reminiscence today. Nothing really special. No Lie is probably my favorite song on the whole thing.
i thought "Avarios" was p bad, Dun Dun is way way better than that, but it's still no Bon Bon Chocolat.
Cignature's first song is extremely forgettable.
that Rocket Punch teaser sounds very promising (it's probably too much to hope for more non-yankees baseball merch in the mv tho).

I'll chuck mine up when I get home from work tonight, still a little undecided on the order of 4 of them.
Psycho has grown on me a ton the last few weeks. If it came out a little earlier in the year it would have been higher on my list

1. Red Velvet - Sunny Side Up!
2. Loona - Where You At
3. Love X Stereo - Free Fall

5. Taeyeon - Gravity
6. Red Velvet - Eyes Locked, Hands Locked

I'm enjoying Here We Are from Gfriend's new EP quite a bit. The verses are pretty forgettable but the chorus really soars.

Well, I guess it's a top 11 for me, though I'm kinda unsure if a few of these actually count. Just ended up basing it off the tracks I've listened to the most, cause there are a hell of a lot of others that I was struggling to rule out too.
There are definitely so many more honorable mentions, but I'd totally stress myself out trying to list every single one that I've enjoyed.
Also didn't realise just how GG heavy my normal rotation of tracks actually is. Need to add me some more variety for my commutes.
- SOMI - Outta My Head
- Twice - 21:29
- LOONA - Satellite
- Dreamcatcher - And There Was No One Left
- LOONA - Curiosity
- Twice - Girls Like Us
- Twice - Get Loud
- Dreamcatcher - The Curse of the Spider
- Loona - Where You At
- Red Velvet - Eyes Locked, Hands Locked
- Red Velvet - Love Is the Way

Of course, it was the most recent song and the best RV song in ages.
A very wild one at that. It's not a bad song, far from it, but please, let's keep it real here. The competition was way too strong for it to begin with.
Here's my b-side list if it's not too late!!
- LOONA - curiosity
- Twice - Love Foolish
- LOONA - Colors
- Red Velvet - Sunny Side Up!
- Twice - Hot
- Blackpink - Dont Know What To Do
- LOONA - Satellite
- Twice - Trick It
- Red Velvet - In n Out
- Apink - What Are You Doing?
My Top 10 B-sides in 2019 in order:
1. Ailee - Midnight
2. Red Velvet - Ladies Night
3. IU - unlucky
4. MAMAMOO - Waggy
5. MAMAMOO - Better
6. Taeyeon - Do You Love Me?
7. LOONA - Satellite
8. Kwon Jin Ah - 시계 바늘 (6:35PM)
9. CHEEZE - 돌아가자
10. Oriental Showcus - Break The Routine
That should be it for 2019 total. A separate B-side list would go along well with our official Top 10s.

Holy shit, Digipedi really went all out while shooting and editing this MV.
Album available for streaming on Spotify.
The intro # is great, albeit when that teaser dropped I really was hoping they would not waste this cool and dark EDM beat on the intro. Oh well.
So What is a grower, sounded kinda weak from the preview but I'm digging it. Great bassline, fun enough chorus, excellent vocal compositions. This is why I listen to LOONA. Oh, and the video is amazing.
Song number 3 is Number 1 for some reason: a straight-up time machine power ballad from the year 2000, as if it were made by LIZ or something. Not generally my style but catchy. 2nd listen I'm already finding myself singing to the chorus. Grower.
Oh (Yes I Am) feels like a mixture between LOONA's trademark hooks and the more minimalistic bit-like soundscape of Yasutaka Nakata. Not overly memorable but very pleasant.
Despite the title, Ding Ding Dong has nothing to do with Gunther's viral song about touching his tralala. I like the change of pace of a more energetic and upbeat track, again not overly remarkable but very enjoyable with some great vocal parts.
And we end on 365, a song we knew pretty well by now. This sort of ballad just never really excited me much, and while the chorus feels fairly powerful and empowering, it's a mostly par for the course and generic ballad like you've heard a million times in Asian pop.
I'll definitely need more listens. The teasers made me hope for a more energetic and dark EP, so it's disappointing that there's only one real song which delivers that. Still, the B-sides are enjoyable if not overly original, and I can definitely see myself revisit this EP fairly often in the next weeks. For now I'd put it below the previous 2 EPs, but I like it.
