I have the White version of the album and it's absolutely stunning, I love the layout of the album as a whole, I loved that we got a whole separate book for the photo book. The pictures in the photo book are breathtaking and extremely aesthetically pleasing. The album itself highlights Astro's maturity as a group as well as still having happy go lucky cutesy songs. While I do love the whole album, the songs I play the most are All Night (전화해), Moonwalk, Role Play and 피어나 (Bloom), All Night (전화해) have a more mature and sensual sound, while Moonwalk is more of a power track and 피어나 (Bloom) is a gorgeous that even without seeing the translated lyrics had me crying, it's such a gorgeous song and each members emotions come through.

I'm excited to see what the future brings for Astro, I'm hoping they start to get more recognition now as they are a group of talented guys, I'm also excited to see more of their mature side and seeing them grow more within their music.
Do you have a favourite song from All Light?
Do you like their more mature sound?
