I love the layout of this album, and I love the colours. From cover to cover this album is aesthetically pleasing
The album from start to finish is amazing, each track is different and gives off a fresh vibe.

I absolutely love 왜요 왜요 왜? (Why?). I love the melody, it's really mellow and how they blend their vocal tones along with it is stunning. This is such a cute song and I've been in love since the first listen.
왜요 왜요 왜? (Why?)

여섯 번째 여름 (The 6th Summer) is such a stunning track and for me I wouldn't say it's your typical track but it's definitely worthy of the title. Like most groups they have a vocal line and a rap line and the bonus with PLAVE is that they're all vocally talented and this songs shows that. Their vocals against the melody is stunning and the melody is breathtaking.

Another song I adore on this album is I Just Love Ya. The melody is upbeat and bright and fits perfectly against the lyrics as well as their voices. I love how they harmonise in this song it really makes them stand out.
I Just Love Ya

What better track to close the album with than Dear. PLLI. If you're unfamiliar with PLAVE, then to make the songs name make sense, their fandom is called PLLI. I love when groups make fan songs and this one is stunning. I love how mellow the melody is and how their vocals and raps fit with the speed and beat of the melody.
Dear. PLLI

I absolutely adore this album, I love each track and will happily have this album on repeat.
Since my last post I have come to find who is behind each of the members which I'm a little gutted about because I didn't have an interest to really know. That being said now knowing means I know why some voices seemed really familiar to me. I also separate their real life from them as PLAVE. I still find them hilarious and find myself watching more and more of them.
They had a comeback back on February and that album blew me away, It's opened new doors for them as well as given them new achievements. I think it's safe to say that this years Spotify wrapped is going to be PLAVE based.
I can't wait to see what they bring us next and I'm glad more and more people are coming to find and enjoy their music.
