Dual

by Iced Earth, The Rose

Overview

The sophomore album from K-pop outfit the Rose, 2023's Dual is a sophisticated and hooky production whose mix of pop, dance, and alt-rock shows just how stylistically savvy the band have become since debuting in 2017. From their start, the Rose (featuring lead singer/guitarist Woosung, lead singer/keyboardist Dojoon, singer/guitarist Jaehyeong, and singer/drummer Hajoon) have set themselves apart from their more hip-hop- and pop-influenced contemporaries, playing exuberant, guitar-driven tunes that draw nicely from groups like U2, Coldplay, and the 1975. With Dual they take that guitar-based vibe to the next level, crafting infectious songs that run the gamut from atmospherically romantic slow jams like "You're Beautiful" and "Angel" to outright pop-grunge anthems like "Back to Me." In between, they dive into the candy-coated, Killers-esque dance-punk of "Nauseous," the EDM catharsis of "Cosmo," and the rising piano uplift of "Eclipse." ~ Matt Collar
