shims’ ASTRO - All Yours album review

Dear my universe 

very sweet sounding 🥺

jinwoo sing-song rap :D 

i can see it as a song i’d skip a lot but i still like it so im keeping it 

Butterfly Effect

kinda generic

wasnt a huge fan of the drop (?) would’ve liked the song better if it didn’t have that

not bad but just boring in my opinion

ONE

honestly love this song sm it’s so well done!!!

the ‘hah hah’ breath thing PHEWWW

super catchy and the like electric sounds/repetition arent abused which is my FAVOURITE because groups tend to overuse these types of sounds in their songs and they balanced it so well !!!

tbh i dont think jinwoo’s and rocky’s raps in here are my faves but rocky’s voice sounded hot so 😳. might need time to warm up to it

the dance looks SUPER cool and catchy

the MV was so good all of the looks were great, the purple ones are my least favourite but minhyuk looks SO good in that one. the rest of the fits thooo all of them look amazing!!! 

sanha’s leather jacket and chains look w the nose ring was so good uhhhhhh *blanks out* 

jinwoo’s cropped jacket *screams endlessly into an abyss*

overall VERY solid and catchy i loved it with all my heart

Someone Else

boppy !

LOVE the prechorus

love the bridge too omg !!

i liked some parts better than others, overall not bad but probably wont be listening to it a whole lot

SNS

omg so cuteee

vibey

MINHYUK SING-SONG RAP!! i honestly love his part here

did i mention vibey im vibing

All Good

THE WHISTLINGGG omg this song had me by the intro already

i love it so much you dont understand 

it made me feel happy :(

this has a very astro sound. idk how to explain it but this is a very astro song and i feel nostalgic listening to it

the bridge is so pretty aahhh

ik if im sad and i listen to this i’ll feel a bit better so it’s going in my feel good playlist <3

All Stars

okay big fan of this song

also has a very astro sound!!!! the magical sparkly sound again idk how to explain it

i love jinwoo’s part !!!

this applies to more than just this song but i love how they use adlibs in their songs it just adds ✨seasoning✨

omg the harmonizing highnote thing yesss!!!

Our Spring

AGAIN! VERY ASTRO SOUND

ahhh this is so pretty

i just feel so nostalgic listening to it

i would listen to this w my earbuds on a long roadtrip and just stare out the window

i love this song :(

broooo the vocals then rap bridge followed by vocals again AHHH jinwoo sounds soooo <3 and minhyuk too the buildup was beautiful the ‘annyeong’ then the highnote by mj yessss ugh love

Stardust

oh this is so pretty....

i love the ‘ohohohoOHoh’

they all sound so nice and relaxing :(

idk who did the little falsetto thing at 2:44 but omg. that was so pretty wtf

this is a very lullaby song. the lack of buildup would usually bother me but this is so nicely done

probably wont listen to it a lot Because of the lack of buildup (i usually need songs w buildup to enjoy listening to them regularly) but it’s still very nice i love it

gemini

im curious why this is called gemini so im gonna look at the lyrics later

also a very pretty song. im starting to think they put the slower songs at the end of the album cuz i went from feeling vibey and boppy to mellow like wtf is this. glad i listened to it in order LMAO

this is a lot like bloom !!!!! magical sounding but in a sad way...

mj sounds soooo good omggg

i love the piano bgm thing

the rap parts are done very well omg the emotions going into this song

did a gemini hurt yall 

the bridge is soooo nice omg :(( then the buildup into the end UGHHH yes so good so good theyre so good at bridges then fading off at the end it’s insane

OVERALL THOUGHTS: i think i’ve liked some of their other albums more than this one but it’s still very solid!!! i love how they’re experimenting with their sound but still staying true to their original style at the same time, it makes for interesting product AND less disappointment (i say this from experience unfortunately...), and astro just always makes me feel nostalgic w their music i dont know why. i may be biased because this group is v special to me but 🤷‍♂️ these reviews were given on my second listen so maybe my opinions will change over time but yeah. they just never miss!

#even the CBs that arent their best are NEVER less than good love that for them #i would love to hear other ppl's thoughts #wow i have not devoted myself to an album like this for a long while i hope i can carry on w this for other groups i like hehe #i think im just procrastinating on real life work i need to do but *winces* anyway i'll get right to that #astro #shims talks #long post #music 🎼
