The layout for this album is pretty simple and is the same as their debut mini album, I have the Challenge version of the album and my pulls this time round were more varied than with their debit mini album.
The tracks on this album are amazing and as you want from any group and not just a rookie group, I have to say, I think this album is better than their first.
I absolutely love 모 아님 도 (All Or Nothing) (Prod. Jang Dae Hyeon) as the title track as it shows a different side to the group compared to Twilight, we also get to hear Yo Han rap, which shows the contrast in his voice, as when he sings his voice is softer and higher, while rapping it's deeper and edgier. I love the music for this track too, Dae Hyeon really did an amazing job creating this track, it's a song that I never get bored of listening to.

I can't deny that Breathing is my favourite song from this album, I love the melody, lyrics, raps and vocals, everything for me about this song is perfection, so much so that it's actually my ringtone, this song also made me adore Seok Hwa's vocals even more.
Breathing
I really enjoy listening to Dancing In The Dark, it's a contrast between soft vocals with a heavier melody, something I can see WEi doing a lot as their usual sound. I think it showcases their vocals and raps extremely well.
Dancing In The Dark
From the start of Diffuser you know it's going to be an amazing and interesting track, I love melody and I just adore the chorus. While I love Breathing and would have loved to have seen them perform it as their second song for promotions, I think Diffuser shows the versatility between both this track and their title track as well as the versatility in their voices, showing that each member has a softness to their voice.
Diffuser
we end the album with the ballad 겨울, 꽂 (Winter, Flower) which is just breathtaking. This just something about this track that it never fails to bring tears to my eyes, it's another one of those songs that I could listen to all day and everyday.
겨울, 꽂 (Winter, Flower)
This album from start to finish is amazing, they've really for me surpassed their debut mini album and I can't wait to hear more from them and see how they grow as a group, I can see that they're going to be a very versatile group and I just hope they get the recognition they deserve.
