It's time to introduce you to a new group that I have started listening to, DAY6 are a 5 member South Korean rock band formed by JYP Entertainment, they made their debut in September 2015 with 6 members but in February 2016 JYP announced that member Junhyeok for personal reasons had left the group and terminated his contract with the company.
Sunrise is the groups first full length album.
DAY6 consists of:
Jae
(Lead guitarist)
Sungjin
(Rhythm guitarist)
Young K
(Bassist)
Wonpil
(synthesiser, keyboardist)
Dowoon
(Drummer)
On December 29th 2016 DAY6 announced Every DAY6, which would be a year-long project, with the group releasing 2 songs every month from January to December throughout 2017, releasing the songs around the 6th of each month.
On the 1st of January 2017 the Every DAY6 January teaser video was released.
On the 6th of March the M/V for 어떻게 말해 (How Can I Say) was released.
DAY6 mainly choose to promote themselves by doing live gigs and touring round like other bands as they want to be recognised as being a band and not for being idols, even member Jae stated through is Twitter account that they were a band and not idols, they have only promoted through music show programmes 4 times since their debut, 3 of which have been for their Every DAY6 releases, 어떻게 말해 (How Can I Say), 장난 아닌데 (I'm Serious) and 반드시 웃는다 (I Smile). DAY6 are heavily involved with their music with the members participating in both the lyrics and the music, the group as a whole wrote and help compose their debut single Congratulations, which appears on their Sunrise album as a final version of the original song.
Sunrise peaked at No,4 on the Gaon Albums Chart, No.163 on the Oricon Albums Chart and No.6 on the Billboard World Albums Chart.
Gaon Sale:
28,999+
Oricon Sales:
585+
Selling a total of 29,584+ copies.
Their M/V's have all also reached views of millions, with the M/V for 아 왜 (I Wait) gaining 9,278,381 million views, 예뻤어 (You Were Beautiful) gaining 6,428,461 million views, 어떻게 말해 (How Can I Say) gaining 5,525,850 million views, 장난 아닌데 (I'm Serious) gaining 4,456,977 million views, Dance Dance gaining 2,674,792 million views and 반드시 웃는다 (I Smile) gaining 3,036,914 million views.
Sunrise is set out in a box case with a photo book, jewel Cd case with lyric book, 2 photo cards and 6 clear covers that when placed on one another show the members together, the cover of the album has a gold metallic look that has the members on the front. The pictures throughout the album are all set outside and keeping all the styling simple with them in smart casual attire, as well as sticking to a black and white colour scheme for their clothing.
Track List:
오늘은 내게 (Lean On Me)
반드시 웃는다 (I Smile)

아 왜 (I Wait)
어떻게 말해 (How Can I Say)

장난 아닌데 (I'm Serious)
Say Wow
Dance Dance
My Day
예뻤어 (You Were Beautiful)
Congratulations (Final Ver.)
Honestly for me even after so many groups have released amazing albums, which is including Girls Generation's 10 year anniversary album, Sunrise for me is the best and my most favourite album to be released in 2017, soon as the album has finished playing, I hit that play button to start it all over again. I love the whole layout of the album and I love that they don't forget that DAY6 are a band, the concept reminds me of something that The Beatles would do. Personally for me I think if any band or group wanted to break into a more international market like the UK, I think DAY6 are one of the few groups that could have sell out gigs in the UK as well as the rest of the world, there are times that I forget that I'm listening to a Korean band as they remind me so much of bands I listen to like InMe, Fall Out Boy, McFly and Busted, it's also because of this that I sometimes get confused as to why I can't understand what they're singing as I forget it's not in English. Each track is different from the last and I found it really hard to only pick a few songs to share with you as I wanted to share all 14 but I thought doing so would make this post even longer.

My only regret with DAY6 is that I actually waited till the release of 반드시 웃는다 (I Smile) and Sunrise to bite the bullet and buy one of their releases, that was even after I decided to check out 아 왜 (I Wait), I gave up when I couldn't find the album that the song was on, finding out when Sunrise got released was because it had not been released onto an album yet. DAY6 continue with their Every DAY6 project and so far since 반드시 웃는다 (I Smile) have released another 4 songs with 2 M/V's, with a new release due within the next week or so. I'm now wanting to get my hands on their past releases to check them out. I admire and love so many K-pop groups but DAY6 are one of the groups that I would highly recommend even if you weren't a fan of K-pop or even rock music, I don't think you'd be disappointed with them.
Are you part of the My Day fandom?
Do you have a favourite track from Sunrise?

See you soon!
