TWICE - Special Album 1 [TWICECOASTER : LANE 2]

TWICE - TWICECOASTER: LANE 2 [Special] A TWICEcoaster that never stops, no, can't be stopped, full of TWICE energy, [TWICEcoaster : LANE 2]! TWICE’s bright, lovely, and cute deviation. ‘KNOCK KNOCK’, one step further into a new world! TWICE, who heated up 2016, continues their unstoppable momentum by releasing their special album [TWICEcoaster: LANE 2] on February 20th. Starting with their debut song ‘Oh Ah-ah-ah’, which recently surpassed 100 million streams, ‘Cheer Up’, which swept the grand prize as the representative song of 2016 at leading awards ceremonies at home and abroad, and ‘TT’, which made the Twice craze real regardless of age, they plan to make 2017 the year of Twice as well. This special album [TWICEcoaster: LANE 2] sought to add a lovely and ‘cute deviation’ that peers could only dream of to the ‘TWICE-ness’ they had created through the past three albums. From the title song ‘KNOCK KNOCK’, which combines the exciting house beat and the members’ pretty and bright energy, to the funky and more popping styling and visuals, to the members’ playful expressions that can be seen in the booklet image. Through the endless variety and newness of familiarity, the two pleasures presented by TWICE, ‘once with the ears and once with the eyes’, as the group name suggests, were able to take one step further. The title song 'KNOCK KNOCK', which attracted a lot of attention even before its release, is a track with an exciting house beat that mixes three genres: Pop, Rock, and Disco. The cheerful and lively melody, and the catchy hook repeated with 'KNOCK KNOCK', combined with the refreshing performance, foreshadow the song's fourth consecutive mega hit. The opinion is that the straight sound of the straight composition is a little different from the existing songs, but has a new charm. The lyrics expressing a cute cry to open the door to a closed girl's heart are also one of the highlights of the song. Another new song ‘Melting’ is Twice’s full-fledged ballad number following ‘Like A Fool’. Combining the genre's inherent charm of a medium-tempo ballad with TWICE's unique musical colors, a ballad number with a new feel was created. Like the story of the refrain 'I'm melting' in the lyrics and title, which expresses the regret of being separated from a loved one and the desire to always love and be loved more, it is a song that will further warm and strengthen the hearts of the fans who love Twice and the hearts of Twice who love their fans. TT (TAK Remix), reinterpreted with Electro-POP sound only included on the CD, is a charm that cannot be missed in this special album. Reharmonization with a jazzy sensibility, which is also the signature of EDM producer TAK, gave a variety of colors, and the powerful drop sound hidden behind the cute and minimal composition of the song enhanced the song's completeness. It's been 1 year and 5 months since their debut, and Twice, who have grown rapidly through what can be described as a roller coaster of times, is taking a step forward by gradually adding new things full of meaning to the current image that has become so close and familiar to us. The meaning of TWICE's efforts to get closer little by little to the ideal that we dream of, while always keeping the beautiful heart of wanting to be like a gift to fans, is enough. So, our hearts are always excited and full of hope as we walk together toward the future of Twice. Throughout the long walk together.
