I have the Op. 3 version of the Attacca album and I'm so happy that I pulled the Vocal Team's photo book, it's rare I pull anything to do with Woozi, especially when the photo books are random (I never have much luck in general when it comes to my biases). This album is a lot bigger than I was expecting it to be and it makes me think of a high-end fashion magazine. I love the photo book and I love the colours used giving the images a contrast of warmth and coldness, the pictures are just stunning and really make the members stand out against their backdrops.
The album itsef is amazing, I can see why it's their best-selling album to date, even just looking at the lyrics for title track Rock With You, you can see how much they put into this album, they've really excelled themselves with this album, it really shows juts how talented they are not only as individuals but also as a group.
I absolutely love the melody for 소용돌이 (To You), I think it really makes the members voices really stand out. I think this is a perfect track to open the album with. I think you can look at this song in different ways, for me this is Seventeen's way of saying that their fans are what keeps them going and that they want to be that person back to their fans too.

There's something about Rock With You that you just know that from the very start of the song that you're going to love it. It's definitely one of my favourite title tracks from Seventeen. I love the contrast between the softness of their voices against the melody. You just know that witnessing this song live in concert would be an emotional experience. For me this track showcases how they've grown and developed since their debut.

There's something about Crush that I just fell in love with it from the first listen. I love the melody and I especially love the chorus, whenever it comes on, no matter what I'm doing, I always seem to find myself singing along.

I'm always a big fan of the performance teams tracks and Pang! is no different. What I love about it is that it's completely different compared to their past team songs, for me the performance team tends to have tracks that allows them to focus on their dancing, but this time, for me it seems they're including all aspects of a performance, which is their vocals, raps and dance, showing that they're really an all-rounder.
Pang!
In all honesty can we expect anything less from the vocal team, 매일 그대라서 행복하다 (Imperfect Love) is such a stunning song, the melody fits perfectly with their voices and the harmonisation is breathtaking. Vocally this is my favourite track from the vocal team, and in all honesty, I don't think this track is long enough, it seems to end too quickly for my liking.
매일 그대라서 행복하다 (Imperfect Love)
As people might expect even if they're not a follower of Seventeen, the Hiphop team is the groups main rappers, and what I love about 그리워하는 것까지 (I Can't Run Away), is that it allows them to show us a new side to them. It allows the listeners to see that they're not just rappers, I love a lot of their team songs, but this one hits differently, and it's definitely up there as one of my favourite team songs of theirs.
그리워하는 것까지 (I Can't Run Away)
It's actually nice to have a digital only track, most of the time bonus tracks are only on the physical releases, so I love that 2 Minus 1 is only on the digital release, it really makes me think that this album is really a gift for their fans. I also love that this track is sung by Joshua and Vernon. I love the contrast between their voices, they always work well together.
2 Minus 1
There is something about Seventeen that with each release, they really excel themselves, each album always sounds different and shows off a new side to them. I'm always excited when they announce their comeback, because I know it's going to be something that will yet again blow me away.
