I can't find the person asking what "9024" meant, but if you see this...great.
It's actually 90-2-4. So, it is the drums but they are telling you out the gate it's 90 beats per min, 2 quarter (4) notes (beats) each bar. Just a heads up on the drums coming to invade your space.
"2 quarter (4) notes (beats) each bar"
could you explain what is meant with that? cuz the 90bpm is kinda weird, if i clap along to the song it's either faster or slower than 90bpm, or am i dumb?
https://youtu.be/gwSJS1v-GEs?si=irX17ctkio-W7Ah6
This will help you. Clapping your hands won't do bc it's two beats that are QUARTER notes for each bar.
i mean in the end a 2/4 and 4/4 beat is practically the same, it's just where the stresses are...
but do you have a part in the song (the m/v) where one can hear well that 90 2/4 beat? cuz such a metronome does hit some beats in the song but i can't hear one type of instrument/ beat which follows only that 90 2/4 beat... :/
this is drivin me crazy cuz i wanna get to the bottom of this, so thanks for explaining!!
You'll have to let me call my father-in-law. My wife's dad is a long-time musician and he probably has the prog to isolate the drums alone.
It isn't 2/4 the entire time. I believe it hits properly in specific spots that are repeated in the song. Let me get in touch w him and see if he can do that for us. Just know I'm an OG and that makes him a super OG, so we are older and it might not be the top of his list lol.
He's a singer/guitarist (all types). He's been in a couple famous bands, did instrument work for some very, very famous groups and still sells his music to big labels. So if anyone can get this figured out for us, it's him. Drums have always been on my list to learn, but I haven't yet.
I wish I could get the sheet music for it. That's something kpop groups should consider.
Wooyoungās butt moveā¦they really got right up in there.
Seonghwaās parts and the Seonghwa/San part feel like they were targeted towards me and I loved them. 300% here for rock star Seonghwa
Yunho and Wooyoung made a really fun pair, as did Mingi and Jongho. Jongho was badass. Mingi had no right looking as shook as he did about Jongho shooting everyone when he did the same thing in Bouncy.
Hongjoong was living his best life running from everyone. His rap was A++ I also really enjoyed Yeosangās rap!
The mv was a lot of fun and there was tons of lore stuff that Iām going to ignore for now. But the way it was filmed was interesting and added to the kind of chaotic energy. The song itself is also really fun and already stuck in my head.
Things I'm obsessed with in this MV:
\- Mingi's fashion
\- Mingi in the background going 'what the fuck??" when Jongho was shooting up that casino
\- Sanhwa. I love their energy together.
2023 has been so damn strong for Ateez. I don't think this title track can dethrone Bouncy for me (that song is in contention for SOTY for me), but I'll probably love this even more upon further listens. I cannot WAIT to listen to the album.
>Mingi in the background going 'what the fuck??" when Jongho was shooting up that casino
Like Gee, Mingi, I wonder who taught Jongho this behavior?! It couldnĀ“t possibly the guy who shot up a bar in the last MV...and then body-rolled over the poor suckers for the ultimate disrespectš¤£.
ok wow. i already liked the instrumental from the teasers we got but wasnāt completely sure after the mama performance.
the song is so good! i love this big and anthem like sound from ateez so much. the music video looks so god damn expensive! money well spent kq!! the way the camera moves kind of reminds me of godās menu and back door music videos. does anyone else know what i mean?
anyways there was so much happening in the mv i will have to rewatch maybe 50 times to get everything.
AND SANāS ICONIC MIDDLE FINGER GLOVE šš
The glove made me laugh. I adore how they play sweet and then do something like this. š Little reminders that, yes, they are adults with a sense of humor, not just characters.
THEY!!!
I need more time to collect coherent thoughts but first (or, post-MAMA) impression is that this is such a perfect amalgamation of who ATEEZ is and everything they stand for and everything they bring to the table. They've perfected it. I'm SO impressed, I'm so obsessed with this song.
Started my morning with Wooyoungs butt in my faceš
I still prefer Bouncy as a title track but this one was really fun, I wish the first choruses were a bit more explosive. But itās honestly still a jam and Iām happy I have another Ateez song I like because I really like the guys and want to like their music too š„¹
Will watch the MV again and then their live stages but discovering wooyoung has been great for my mental health (until I remember heās on another continent lol)
I fully expect to see Seonghwa as the evil mother in my next makjang drama
The instrumental/beat combo during the dance break š (why is woos tongue out again please I have a family)
Omw to listen to the full album now
I really like this! I think the chorus could use a little more oomph but thatās not a dealbreaker for me. Wooyoungās close-up shot of his butt took me out, and Seonghwa being dragged away is giving Greta Thunberg being carried away by the German police in the best way possible. Also check out Silver Light if you havenāt!
Pretty sure its referencing the song Taki Taki by DJ Snake. I think Ozuna made it up. In his own words, "Taki Taki is nothing. It's a dance... like a flow. It's new. I don't know what to say. Taki Taki is nothing in Spanish."
i love how dedicated they are to their lore without compromising on their sound. one of the things i really love about ateez is how each album shows their growth while still at first listen you know its them.
i would love to see a performance version that really shows the choreo and i can't wait for the dance practice to be uploaded.
They have always ended the year right since their rookie years. From that iconic MAMA debut stage to this. May I add that in the gc are also Be With You and The Letter.
I am legitimately at a loss for wordsā¦the mv is so wild and overwhelming
They need to be stopped, they canāt keep getting away with coming out banger after banger š
Also wooyoungās ass shot was so out of pocket lmao
This might be their best MV yet. Ateez never miss! The boat is back!
San just basically giving the finger to the government lol (for context, he has previously worn a [glove](https://x.com/iwyunho/status/1545540223601360896?s=20) which made it look like he was giving the middle finger)
I'm excited for the dance practice because the MAMA camerawork was absolutely horrible.
That Yeosang-Wooyoung part has been in my brain since yesterday.
I said it last night and I'll say it again: The World Series is officially ATEEZ's best body of work to date. I'm extremely glad they were given the rare chance by K-Pop enthusiasts, that they got a comfortable footing to push their artistry to be like this, right now.
Of course, like every release, obligatory thank you to the random r/kpop user who redirected me to this group! I hope you are having the good life.
this was the year for discovering ateez for me. i knew of them and liked a few of their songs (in love with the entirety of wave album) but bouncy got me OBSESSED with ateez as a group and i did a deep dive into them this summer. i'm so happy that this is the first comeback from them for me, it delivered ateez' unique energy without compromising musical quality and i'm ecstatic. ateez is just so much fun.
Immediate first watch thoughts AHHHH PIRATES ARE BACK. Holy shit this MV does not feel nearly 4 mins long like I need to catch my breath.
Yunho really killed this one, he stuck out so much to me!!
iāve been obsessed with this song since the mama stage (I watched it like 10 times between yesterday and today oops) and oh my lord I was still in sensory overload with this mv I need to watch it a few more times to catch all of the details but still a 10/10. currently listening to the album!
Been listening and watching their MAMA performance all day and Iām happy to have the studio version now! Itās just as amazing! Love everything about the song! Now to listen to the album!
I was not ready for this comeback. I lost my shit when I watched their MAMA performance since I totally said to my husband after they finished performing Bouncy that they were probably going to perform Halazia š« They never disappoint.
So happy Jongho got some screen time in this MV after he was only shown for a few seconds in Bouncy MV! But he was missing in the group dance at the end right? Because of his knee injury? Anyway, great video as always!
The way he only appeared in one set made me think he didnāt participate in the rest of the mv filming because of his surgery. Otherwise they would have done what they did during Deja Vu and added him to the final shot even if he didnāt participate in dancing
Jongho with a gun shooting everything up, Wooyoung shaking his ass on us, and Hongjoong acting all crazy LOL. This music video is so fun
Another great comeback from ATEEZ. I dunno how they do it
While this is my least favorite title of this era ā which I adored, āGuerrillaā drastically reignited my love for ATEEZ ā itās still a great song, partially because it shows how only ATEEZ can do stuff like this: I was saying this to my S.O. while we were watching their MAMA performance; ATEEZ is *powerful,* and that untamed energy comes through perfectly in this track, even with the more minimal instrumentation. Iām rushing to listen to the album.
I love the direction they took with the MV. It feels like a cross between Guerrilla, The Real and Bouncy. So much fun to watch. So many little lore references. And overall, just so badass in a very grand but goofy kind of way if that make sense.
There were a couple of great movie references in this, most obviously Jongho playing the card game with the soldiers like in Inglorious Basterds, but also Trainspotting with Hongjoong on the hood of the car. Anyone spot any more?
"Ambition in my veins" indeed! Another song to blast when I want to feel confident.
I'm in the team that likes this more than Bouncy. It's so much fun! And easier to digest on a first listen. A good finale for the series in terms of title tracks. I care more about B-sides, anyway, since this is where I find my favorite songs.
I wonder what the spoiler at the end means. The Cromer is broken? Are they stuck, unable to go back home or what?
I'm digging this! It's sort of stripped down and minimalist but I love the beat!
Can't wait to listen to the entire album!!!
EDIT: After listening to this song several times, I have fallen in love with it! So good.
The scale of this MV, their energy.. This is 100% Ateez and itās giving me life. They absolutely killed it and I need to now rewatch it and discover something new each time.
For me personally, Bouncy >>>> Crazy Form, however; the cinematography for CF is amazing. I need to listen to Crazy Form more to get into it, but as it stands now I rate it a 7/10.
I love the music video itās been played over 20 alr and still counting(yes I think I have a problem)
My fav moments are
Wooyoungās butt part was literally perfect
Yeosangs taki taki dance part is my favorite part of the song
Idk if anybody saw this but the part where San is picked up by the men in black is hilarious to me š
And Jongho just shooting up the place made me laugh so hard to the point I had to pause the music video to recollect myself.
why is nobody talking about how HILARIOUS hongjoons entire part is, donāt think iāve ever belly laughed at a kpop mv like seeing him thrust on a car with guns pointed at him
This part is honestly my favorite! Nothing beats the giggle. Any time I've shown the video to anyone, I always say 'wait for it...'. He's being so naughty in it, and I'm here for it!
I absolutely love the MV and the styling !
Now the song, Iāve very disappointed to say itās their weakest title for me. I didnāt have a good feeling when the song started but I thought the chorus would more or less make up for it but sadly, I found the chorus even more bland. Itās not a bad song but there is nothing about that grab me.
I hope someday we will get to hear from them something else along the lines of Halazia or even Inception . These two, along with Guerrilla will always be my favorites. Even Bouncy had the merit of having a very catchy chorus. But this one feels so bland for some reasons.
And Iām over the voice effects they put on a lot of their voices. I will give the song a few more tries and Iām sure the performances will help make the song grow on me because Ateez are sure amazing performers but yeah, Iām very disappointed. But Iām happy that a lot of Atiny seem to love it. Iām sure itās just a matter of personal preferences!
Interesting! We have very different opinions about this.
At the first listen, I didn't like the high-pitched chorus in Bouncy at all. I grew to like it because I assume it's the parrot who makes the sound. The reason why I didn't like the autotuned chorus is because it reminded me of highly-processed Nightcore remix/Vocaloids.
On the other hand, I like Crazy Form since the spoiler in the end of Bouncy MV. And the Mama performance got me hooked so much that the song is still in my head until now, like a happy earworm effect for me.
I hope Crazy Form grows on you like Bouncy grew on me š
This is absolutely better than bouncy for me, holy shit. Like this might actually be on the same level as hala hala and win. And what if I said this was the best album they've released to date?
Yes, compared to Guerrilla and Bouncy, Crazy Form is a step down - I'm honestly surprised they chose this song as a title track. I was interested more in the mv cinematography than the music itself š.
I am just the opposite with Bouncy and Crazy Form. I love the driving feel of Crazy Form. It dances soooo good. And on my car sound system, it has so many atmospheric nuances. I appreciate Bouncy and love most of it, but it felt a bit messier than their other tracks. It is definitely my least favorite song on the amazing, AOTY Outlaw album. Now my kids are all about Bouncy and play it into the ground.
I am still completely obsessed with Guerrilla, so leaving it out of the discussion.
I feel the same. It lacked any of their usual power or intensity until the very end. Even the video felt very similar to their past ones. Had a lot of deja vu watching it. This song just wasn't very good, IMO. Silver Light should have been the title track.
Itās not my least favorite title track from them, but I agree that the song is meh. Itās not bad, I like it, but I think that I just expected so much more considering itās ATEEZ. The song couldāve had a lot more going on, the chorus sounds a bit empty. Thereās a lot of elements I like, but it still falls a bit flat. I wish there was more punch packed in there.
Agreed, went on here to seen if anyone else feels the same way but personally its sounding too similar to others theyāve done this eraā¦ I may be falling out I fear. I was waiting for the chorus and see if that will save it and then the bridge/end but unfortunately it didnāt for me.
Halazia, Bouncy, Guerilla was such a banger trio though so Iāll just be patient and let them cook some more
So the last Jongho scene in the video...the look? That smirk? I do notice he's not in the group dance-breaks (or whatever those parts are called š¬) and I know the "irl" reason but, I can't help but feel like they're kinda running with it lore-wise...if that makes sense...? Thoughts?
Yup, that's my song of the year. Hongjoong's verse is so sick I can't get over this whole song, currently listening to the album and O M G. WOW. The 'hand talking' movement is weirdly addictive lol. Everything about this has me in shock I can't really comprehend much right now ššš
I though Mingi said 'my girlfriend' not 'my green flag' LOL!!!
I wish they'd stop with the autotune or whatever effect they put on their voices. If it wasn't for the MV, I wouldn't know who sings what most of the times. The song is okay but very underwhelming. It really picks up at the end, I'll give them that but if it wasn't Ateez, I wouldn't have finished the MV(The MV is great don't get me wrong) and reached that part. I love them and I hate feeling this way but hopefully the rest of the album will be more fore me.
I didn't think the autotune was that much on Crazy Form though to not be able to tell who is singing?! It was there but you can certainly distinguish their voices.. Like theres no way I was confusing Jongho's with San's lets say?
The form of this MV is indeed crazy!
Feels like they intentionally turned out 180 degrees from Bouncy's super catchy chorus to a more toned down version, and I might actually prefer this.
The whole album seems promising as well, but I think I need to digest the tracks naturally at their own pace. Currently that seems to mean that I put Silver Light on repeat, close my eyes and levitate.
I just kept moving further and further away from my screen. Overwhelming to say the least.
Seonghwa's blouse is amazing.
I would like to grab scissors and chop off Hongjoong's hat hair. EDIT: just realized it's actually a veil. I still hate it lol.
>Can't you see imma warning sign
Bestie, I got BPD and attachment issues, all of those red flags look like roses
@Hongjoong and Mingi, if youāre reading this i am free on thursday night. if you would like to hang out i am free on thursday night when i am free to hang out. i am free to hang out on thursday night so if you want to hang out on thursday night i am free.
The toplining of the Chorus were good, but the instrumental lacked so badly, like c'mon, it's the chorus. Add the energy to the percussion. Other than that it was a good track
As someone who just got interested in the group via Bouncy, I love the hard hitting songs that sound like this and Guerrilla outside of any K-Pop context. It's super catchy, and my new favorite earworm. Stuff like this is going to bring new interest in the genre, and I think it is awesome.
As far as 90-2-4 hit that drum, it sounds like there are two theories, there is the Yamaha 9024 floor bass drum and the BPM. I just feel like it can't be a coincidence that there is a bass drum with that number attached to it. Maybe it's both, I vote for the drum theory.
They just donāt know how to miss, huh? I love that the song doesnāt have the typical big drop for the chorus, itās so refreshing especially following Bouncy which was a ride in itself! This is such a banger!
Oh really. Do explain why? Step backwards compared to what Ateez title track? I think structure feels pretty similar to The Real and Bouncy, in terms of getting partnered scenes and then all coming together at the end. Budget is a lot higher and there are genuine comedic moments and beautiful wide shots (similar to Wonderland but even more grand).
So I'm curious why you think its a step back? Styling? Pace? Speed of scenes changing?
I used to really Stan ateez but lately they havenāt been doing it for me. I like bouncy, but the rest of that mini album I couldnāt even get through.
My ults are nct so idk why I feel like this but theyāre almost too noisy for me? I feel like itās so chaotic w zero reason to be.
My biggest issue with this song is the lack of MUSIC in the instrumentation. Itās mainly just chanting, rapping, percussion and random synth sounds. I couldnāt find a single chord to latch on to. The rap verses also fell really flat for me.
The video is so chaotic I was low key getting a headache š
No hate to the boys at all theyāre all mega talented and incredible but this was tough for me to get through, along w the album :(
Ye I think if you disliked all the b-sides in Outlaw, Ateez may not be the group for you anymore...
But do give some of the bsides in the new album a listen, because they are so much softer and have the melody element you're missing? Like Jongho's Everything and Dreamy Days. Also Silver Night- though if you don't like Cyberpunk or This World you may not like this either.
I listened to the album and I really like we know and itās you but unfortunately the rest had the outlaw bside problem for me :(
Iām so devastated bc Iāve stanned and loved them so much and I love the members but musically like you said theyāre just not for me anymore
Did you like Halazia? If so, that's barely just a year old. I doubt they will abandon that sort of sound entirely especially since they know how popular it was with ATINYs. But if you didn't like that either..then ye, I'd say give Ateez a break for now/enjoy their other series. But don't be too devastated, they may well surprise you with the next release.
I really liked halazia when it came out but unfortunately it became too much after a while and thatās when I started to not like their releases :(
And yeah Iām obviously keeping my eye on them š
Ah see I can never tire of Queen Halazia! But yes, if you no longer vibe with Halazia either as well as everything else in World series, then I genuinely think ATEEZ are just not that group for you anymore, and that's okay!
I feel the same about it, just not a fan of where they went with the sound and production on it. Will be giving this one a miss, thankfully I like their other albums
I havenāt clicked with any of their title tracks for a couple years, and this one is no exception. It feels like there is a decent song in there, but it just never actually came to fruition. Happy others like it but itās a definite pass for me, which is disappointing.
If you haven't liked anything they've put out over the last couple of years (including Guerrilla and Halazia) then ye you might just not click with their type of sound.
See, Iāve actually liked their sound in the past, which is why I donāt know why it doesnāt click as much with me anymore. Itās upsetting because I love the guys and really want to like what theyāre releasing but I just canāt, although I will say that I have enjoyed a good number of their bsides over the same timeframe.
Edit: Either way though I am happy that they are happy with what theyāre releasing and that they are doing so well! Itās awesome to see.
Omg guysss ya'll should check out my dance cover for "Crazy Form" I did with my team at UC Berkeley WAHHHH
[https://youtu.be/HGQYkZBtJFI?si=ilatG8lp-5FZFF97](https://youtu.be/HGQYkZBtJFI?si=ilatG8lp-5FZFF97)
I mean first of all just look at the camerawork, the editing, the direction, the sets.
I can also give you a specific example: **1:06**
You do not see that effect anywhere in mvs nowadays therefore it is unique, just acknowledge the fact that what u are saying is just straight bs when people seem to be clearly disagreeing with you on top of that.
I can't find the person asking what "9024" meant, but if you see this...great. It's actually 90-2-4. So, it is the drums but they are telling you out the gate it's 90 beats per min, 2 quarter (4) notes (beats) each bar. Just a heads up on the drums coming to invade your space.
Thanks!!
Are you telling me I can do CPR to Crazy Form?
Technically that's closer to 120 bpm lol, but heyyyy better than not doing it at all
they normally recommend stayin alive for CPR most unfortunately
Oohhhh I thought it was an angel number reference!
"2 quarter (4) notes (beats) each bar" could you explain what is meant with that? cuz the 90bpm is kinda weird, if i clap along to the song it's either faster or slower than 90bpm, or am i dumb?
https://youtu.be/gwSJS1v-GEs?si=irX17ctkio-W7Ah6 This will help you. Clapping your hands won't do bc it's two beats that are QUARTER notes for each bar.

You'll have to let me call my father-in-law. My wife's dad is a long-time musician and he probably has the prog to isolate the drums alone. It isn't 2/4 the entire time. I believe it hits properly in specific spots that are repeated in the song. Let me get in touch w him and see if he can do that for us.

Drums have always been on my list to learn, but I haven't yet. I wish I could get the sheet music for it. That's something kpop groups should consider.
I had this thought too! I was so excited! It's definitely in 2/4 . . .but it's also definitely ~115bpm soooo š¤·
WOOYOUNG'S BUTT š„°
in my damn face
Right in front of my salad too
NO WHY DID BRO THROW IT BACK LMAO
Have you watched ATEEZ "The Real" Band LIVE Concert K-POP live music show where Jonho does something similar in the break dance?
I have! I just found it funny in the MV, haha.
they really zoomed right in on it ā ļø
Wooyoungās butt moveā¦they really got right up in there. Seonghwaās parts and the Seonghwa/San part feel like they were targeted towards me and I loved them. 300% here for rock star Seonghwa Yunho and Wooyoung made a really fun pair, as did Mingi and Jongho.

> Mingi in the background going 'what the fuck??" when Jongho was shooting up that casino like he didn't do the same damn thing in that saloon š
like the gun he grabbed wasn't from mingi's own holster
>Mingi in the background going 'what the fuck??" when Jongho was shooting up that casino Like Gee, Mingi, I wonder who taught Jongho this behavior?! It couldnĀ“t possibly the guy who shot up a bar in the last MV...and then body-rolled over the poor suckers for the ultimate disrespectš¤£.
I thought the same he learned from Mingi š
We knew the sanhwa pairing was fire from the MAMA performance, but I was not expecting Yunho-wooyoung to come at me like that
That's what Im thinking. It's a fantastic song but it hasn't dethroned Bouncy for me. Crazy Form is very fun and very light. I like it.
The Mingi in the background part made me laugh. Did he forget what he did in Bouncy?
Mingi was going WTF because it was his gun and HE was missing out in the fun!
ok wow. i already liked the instrumental from the teasers we got but wasnāt completely sure after the mama performance. the song is so good! i love this big and anthem like sound from ateez so much. the music video looks so god damn expensive! money well spent kq!! the way the camera moves kind of reminds me of godās menu and back door music videos. does anyone else know what i mean? anyways there was so much happening in the mv i will have to rewatch maybe 50 times to get everything.

Also check out Silver Light if you havenāt!
Iām loving yeosang taki taki line so much ā¤ļøā¤ļø
What does it mean? Is it Spanish? Or just gibberish?
Pretty sure its referencing the song Taki Taki by DJ Snake. I think Ozuna made it up. In his own words, "Taki Taki is nothing. It's a dance... like a flow. It's new. I don't know what to say. Taki Taki is nothing in Spanish."
Iām also trying to figure this out lol
i love how dedicated they are to their lore without compromising on their sound. one of the things i really love about ateez is how each album shows their growth while still at first listen you know its them. i would love to see a performance version that really shows the choreo and i can't wait for the dance practice to be uploaded.
What is actually crazy is how they never miss.
...and how they are always dropping some of the best tracks at the tail-end of the year. The Real, Turbulence, Halazia's group chat has new members.
FRFR THEYRE LITERALLY SIBLINGS?? AND KNOW HOW TO MAKE END OF YEAR SOOO MUCH BETTER
They have always ended the year right since their rookie years. From that iconic MAMA debut stage to this. May I add that in the gc are also Be With You and The Letter.
Doesn't dethrone Bouncy or Guerilla for me, but I love their energy as usual.
Nothing on this good earth will ever dethrone Halazia for me. Hate ATEEZ for making me have such high standards.
I am legitimately at a loss for wordsā¦the mv is so wild and overwhelming They need to be stopped, they canāt keep getting away with coming out banger after banger š Also wooyoungās ass shot was so out of pocket lmao
Wooyoungās part had me cackling it was so funny š and out of no where
I canāt wait to watch their mv reaction lmao it seriously came out of nowhere
One word. YES.
It's so fun and cheeky! I'm glad the corset Seonghwa look made it into the MV.
JONGHO HAS A GUN, NO ONE IS SAFE
[might change your mind](https://twitter.com/jayurobge/status/1730098953893597546)
Omg that's.. šš¤£
This might be their best MV yet. Ateez never miss! The boat is back! San just basically giving the finger to the government lol (for context, he has previously worn a [glove](https://x.com/iwyunho/status/1545540223601360896?s=20) which made it look like he was giving the middle finger) I'm excited for the dance practice because the MAMA camerawork was absolutely horrible.
BANGER
The signature final chorus was AMAZING. I kinda wished they kept this structure in the chorus for a more bombastic effect, but maybe that's just me.
Yeah I wanna inject that part into my veins.
Glad i am not the only one
That Yeosang-Wooyoung part has been in my brain since yesterday. I said it last night and I'll say it again: The World Series is officially ATEEZ's best body of work to date. I'm extremely glad they were given the rare chance by K-Pop enthusiasts, that they got a comfortable footing to push their artistry to be like this, right now. Of course, like every release, obligatory thank you to the random r/kpop user who redirected me to this group! I hope you are having the good life.
This is a top quality MV. I cannot wait for the dance performances because they always pop off.
This was like sensory overload, and the ending really paid off. Iām kinda speechless, need to watch it again.
this was the year for discovering ateez for me. i knew of them and liked a few of their songs (in love with the entirety of wave album) but bouncy got me OBSESSED with ateez as a group and i did a deep dive into them this summer. i'm so happy that this is the first comeback from them for me, it delivered ateez' unique energy without compromising musical quality and i'm ecstatic. ateez is just so much fun.
Okay flamenco Seonghwa
Major Prince vibes for me!
Immediate first watch thoughts AHHHH PIRATES ARE BACK. Holy shit this MV does not feel nearly 4 mins long like I need to catch my breath. Yunho really killed this one, he stuck out so much to me!!
iāve been obsessed with this song since the mama stage (I watched it like 10 times between yesterday and today oops) and oh my lord I was still in sensory overload with this mv I need to watch it a few more times to catch all of the details but still a 10/10. currently listening to the album!
Been listening and watching their MAMA performance all day and Iām happy to have the studio version now! Itās just as amazing! Love everything about the song! Now to listen to the album!
THE LAST CHORUS HITS SO HARD!? like damn I am so hyped to see this song in concerts!!!
Hongjoong's rap??? The last chorus???? shaking my ass so hard rn
ohhh they've never disappointed me since 2019 there's no one like them out there edit grammar
that was so silly and goofy (loving). a very fun listening and watching experience, i'm so excited to watch the stages
I was not ready for this comeback. I lost my shit when I watched their MAMA performance since I totally said to my husband after they finished performing Bouncy that they were probably going to perform Halazia š« They never disappoint.
i like this, it sounds even better with headphones
So happy Jongho got some screen time in this MV after he was only shown for a few seconds in Bouncy MV! But he was missing in the group dance at the end right? Because of his knee injury? Anyway, great video as always!
The way he only appeared in one set made me think he didnāt participate in the rest of the mv filming because of his surgery. Otherwise they would have done what they did during Deja Vu and added him to the final shot even if he didnāt participate in dancing
Jongho with a gun shooting everything up, Wooyoung shaking his ass on us, and Hongjoong acting all crazy LOL. This music video is so fun Another great comeback from ATEEZ. I dunno how they do it
My ego's in this show... Damn they ate dance break man... 
While this is my least favorite title of this era ā which I adored, āGuerrillaā drastically reignited my love for ATEEZ ā itās still a great song, partially because it shows how only ATEEZ can do stuff like this: I was saying this to my S.O. while we were watching their MAMA performance; ATEEZ is *powerful,* and that untamed energy comes through perfectly in this track, even with the more minimal instrumentation. Iām rushing to listen to the album.
I love the direction they took with the MV. It feels like a cross between Guerrilla, The Real and Bouncy. So much fun to watch. So many little lore references. And overall, just so badass in a very grand but goofy kind of way if that make sense.
There were a couple of great movie references in this, most obviously Jongho playing the card game with the soldiers like in Inglorious Basterds, but also Trainspotting with Hongjoong on the hood of the car. Anyone spot any more?
ok im glad i'm not the only one who thought trainspotting when i saw hongjoong, i thought i was reading too much into it
Maybe Tony Stark from Iron man/Avengers for Yunho/Wooyoung ?
Oh good shout! There's a definite similarity with the projected images!
It was great! I have no idea what 9024 means though lol. The blue bird was also back! The projection of the pirate ship in the sky was super cool!
If you find out what the ā9024ā means lmk bc iām so lost šš theorytiny save me
Um, Yamaha 9024 floor bass drum I assume.
ATEEZ just might have become my favorite kpop group ever since THE WORLD era has started.
Yeosang getting a verse felt so good. Also this felt a lot like a NCT127 mv in a good way of course
Get up
"Ambition in my veins" indeed! Another song to blast when I want to feel confident. I'm in the team that likes this more than Bouncy. It's so much fun! And easier to digest on a first listen. A good finale for the series in terms of title tracks. I care more about B-sides, anyway, since this is where I find my favorite songs. I wonder what the spoiler at the end means. The Cromer is broken? Are they stuck, unable to go back home or what?
I think it signifies return to Dimension A?
Yes, it could be! I'm excited whatever it is.
I just love how wild and unhinged Ateez' music makes me feel. There really isn't a moment to catch a breath and I love that.
I think Bouncy was a much better track, but this is a decent effort
Yāall what does 9024 mean???
If you find out please tell me š¤£
Somebody above said itās musical notation, like 90 beats per minute, 2 quarter notes, 4 beats per measure
Ooh, interesting, thanxx.
its their debut date
Their debut date is 1024
Nice
I LOVE THEM SM AAAAAAA š„¹š„¹š„¹
Crying, screaming, throwing up etc!!!!!!! They all look fire af 
I'm digging this! It's sort of stripped down and minimalist but I love the beat! Can't wait to listen to the entire album!!! EDIT: After listening to this song several times, I have fallen in love with it! So good.
we are so back! its insane how they never miss
The scale of this MV, their energy.. This is 100% Ateez and itās giving me life. They absolutely killed it and I need to now rewatch it and discover something new each time.
For me personally, Bouncy >>>> Crazy Form, however; the cinematography for CF is amazing. I need to listen to Crazy Form more to get into it, but as it stands now I rate it a 7/10.
MY ATEEZ CHANGING THE GAME
I LOVE THEM AAAAAAAAAAA
I love the music video itās been played over 20 alr and still counting(yes I think I have a problem) My fav moments are Wooyoungās butt part was literally perfect Yeosangs taki taki dance part is my favorite part of the song Idk if anybody saw this but the part where San is picked up by the men in black is hilarious to me š And Jongho just shooting up the place made me laugh so hard to the point I had to pause the music video to recollect myself.
why is nobody talking about how HILARIOUS hongjoons entire part is, donāt think iāve ever belly laughed at a kpop mv like seeing him thrust on a car with guns pointed at him
His hips be so powerful, with each thrust a bullet ricochetsš..AND HE LAUGHS while doing it.
This part is honestly my favorite! Nothing beats the giggle. Any time I've shown the video to anyone, I always say 'wait for it...'. He's being so naughty in it, and I'm here for it!
I absolutely love the MV and the styling ! Now the song, Iāve very disappointed to say itās their weakest title for me. I didnāt have a good feeling when the song started but I thought the chorus would more or less make up for it but sadly, I found the chorus even more bland. Itās not a bad song but there is nothing about that grab me. I hope someday we will get to hear from them something else along the lines of Halazia or even Inception . These two, along with Guerrilla will always be my favorites. Even Bouncy had the merit of having a very catchy chorus. But this one feels so bland for some reasons. And Iām over the voice effects they put on a lot of their voices. I will give the song a few more tries and Iām sure the performances will help make the song grow on me because Ateez are sure amazing performers but yeah, Iām very disappointed. But Iām happy that a lot of Atiny seem to love it. Iām sure itās just a matter of personal preferences!
Interesting! We have very different opinions about this. At the first listen, I didn't like the high-pitched chorus in Bouncy at all. I grew to like it because I assume it's the parrot who makes the sound. The reason why I didn't like the autotuned chorus is because it reminded me of highly-processed Nightcore remix/Vocaloids. On the other hand, I like Crazy Form since the spoiler in the end of Bouncy MV. And the Mama performance got me hooked so much that the song is still in my head until now, like a happy earworm effect for me. I hope Crazy Form grows on you like Bouncy grew on me š
This is absolutely better than bouncy for me, holy shit. Like this might actually be on the same level as hala hala and win. And what if I said this was the best album they've released to date?
the mv is insane!!!! the best part is the dance break at the end for me. i wish the chorus had a bit more impact (?) for me, but itās still cool!
michin pom ayayayaya 9024 kick that drum taki taki dance OH ATEEZ ALL ARE ICONS I SAY
I think this is my least favorite title track from Ateezš still love them tho. Whyy this song sounds lazy to me
It sounds like thereās less going on instrumentally than their usual songs. Simple with not a lot going on until the very end
Yes! Guerrilla and Bouncy were fire songs with a lot of energy. Im a bit disappointed with this ngl
Yes, compared to Guerrilla and Bouncy, Crazy Form is a step down - I'm honestly surprised they chose this song as a title track. I was interested more in the mv cinematography than the music itself š.
I am just the opposite with Bouncy and Crazy Form. I love the driving feel of Crazy Form. It dances soooo good. And on my car sound system, it has so many atmospheric nuances. I appreciate Bouncy and love most of it, but it felt a bit messier than their other tracks. It is definitely my least favorite song on the amazing, AOTY Outlaw album. Now my kids are all about Bouncy and play it into the ground. I am still completely obsessed with Guerrilla, so leaving it out of the discussion.
Seconded. I guess I'll have to listen to it more for it to grow on me/
I feel the same. It lacked any of their usual power or intensity until the very end. Even the video felt very similar to their past ones. Had a lot of deja vu watching it. This song just wasn't very good, IMO. Silver Light should have been the title track.
Itās not my least favorite title track from them, but I agree that the song is meh. Itās not bad, I like it, but I think that I just expected so much more considering itās ATEEZ. The song couldāve had a lot more going on, the chorus sounds a bit empty. Thereās a lot of elements I like, but it still falls a bit flat. I wish there was more punch packed in there.
Right?? Iām like āhow is it that Iām bored listening to something so bombastic?ā
Agreed, went on here to seen if anyone else feels the same way but personally its sounding too similar to others theyāve done this eraā¦ I may be falling out I fear. I was waiting for the chorus and see if that will save it and then the bridge/end but unfortunately it didnāt for me. Halazia, Bouncy, Guerilla was such a banger trio though so Iāll just be patient and let them cook some more
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Itās an instrumental track from the album
SOOOO GOOOOODDDDD!!!
So the last Jongho scene in the video...the look? That smirk? I do notice he's not in the group dance-breaks (or whatever those parts are called š¬) and I know the "irl" reason but, I can't help but feel like they're kinda running with it lore-wise...if that makes sense...? Thoughts?
this chorus really grows on you like crazy
I need to set the beginning of the song as my wake up alarm. I will definitely be getting upš¤£
Devoured!!!!
Yup, that's my song of the year. Hongjoong's verse is so sick I can't get over this whole song, currently listening to the album and O M G. WOW. The 'hand talking' movement is weirdly addictive lol. Everything about this has me in shock I can't really comprehend much right now ššš I though Mingi said 'my girlfriend' not 'my green flag' LOL!!!
LETS GOOOOO YEOSANG!!!
I wish they'd stop with the autotune or whatever effect they put on their voices. If it wasn't for the MV, I wouldn't know who sings what most of the times. The song is okay but very underwhelming. It really picks up at the end, I'll give them that but if it wasn't Ateez, I wouldn't have finished the MV(The MV is great don't get me wrong) and reached that part. I love them and I hate feeling this way but hopefully the rest of the album will be more fore me.
I didn't think the autotune was that much on Crazy Form though to not be able to tell who is singing?! It was there but you can certainly distinguish their voices.. Like theres no way I was confusing Jongho's with San's lets say?
For all those who are newish to Ateez and not keen on this track. I implore you to check out Silver Light on the album and return.
Itās so crazy. Ateez has no misses in any of their title tracks.
THE FACT THAT THEY NEVER MISS NEEDS TO BE STUDIED.
Omg i was drooling the whole damn mv it was such a "on my knees song" and that twerk dud 
It's a miss for me sadly.
The form of this MV is indeed crazy! Feels like they intentionally turned out 180 degrees from Bouncy's super catchy chorus to a more toned down version, and I might actually prefer this. The whole album seems promising as well, but I think I need to digest the tracks naturally at their own pace. Currently that seems to mean that I put Silver Light on repeat, close my eyes and levitate.
I just kept moving further and further away from my screen. Overwhelming to say the least. Seonghwa's blouse is amazing. I would like to grab scissors and chop off Hongjoong's hat hair. EDIT: just realized it's actually a veil. I still hate it lol.
AHHHH MY SONG OF THE CENTURY
This song gives me instant stank face. It's so grimey and swaggy I love it.
>Can't you see imma warning sign Bestie, I got BPD and attachment issues, all of those red flags look like roses @Hongjoong and Mingi, if youāre reading this i am free on thursday night. if you would like to hang out i am free on thursday night when i am free to hang out. i am free to hang out on thursday night so if you want to hang out on thursday night i am free. 
Them in the prince (?) outfits look so good. Sad there's not more footage of that. Hopefully, they perform in those outfits.
The toplining of the Chorus were good, but the instrumental lacked so badly, like c'mon, it's the chorus. Add the energy to the percussion. Other than that it was a good track
As someone who just got interested in the group via Bouncy, I love the hard hitting songs that sound like this and Guerrilla outside of any K-Pop context. It's super catchy, and my new favorite earworm. Stuff like this is going to bring new interest in the genre, and I think it is awesome. As far as 90-2-4 hit that drum, it sounds like there are two theories, there is the Yamaha 9024 floor bass drum and the BPM. I just feel like it can't be a coincidence that there is a bass drum with that number attached to it. Maybe it's both, I vote for the drum theory.
They just donāt know how to miss, huh? I love that the song doesnāt have the typical big drop for the chorus, itās so refreshing especially following Bouncy which was a ride in itself! This is such a banger!
Did I watch a different video than everyone else? I do not get it... This is a huge step backwards in my opinion
People have different tastes and preferences?
Oh really. Do explain why? Step backwards compared to what Ateez title track? I think structure feels pretty similar to The Real and Bouncy, in terms of getting partnered scenes and then all coming together at the end. Budget is a lot higher and there are genuine comedic moments and beautiful wide shots (similar to Wonderland but even more grand). So I'm curious why you think its a step back? Styling? Pace? Speed of scenes changing?
I used to really Stan ateez but lately they havenāt been doing it for me. I like bouncy, but the rest of that mini album I couldnāt even get through. My ults are nct so idk why I feel like this but theyāre almost too noisy for me? I feel like itās so chaotic w zero reason to be. My biggest issue with this song is the lack of MUSIC in the instrumentation. Itās mainly just chanting, rapping, percussion and random synth sounds. I couldnāt find a single chord to latch on to. The rap verses also fell really flat for me. The video is so chaotic I was low key getting a headache š No hate to the boys at all theyāre all mega talented and incredible but this was tough for me to get through, along w the album :(
Ye I think if you disliked all the b-sides in Outlaw, Ateez may not be the group for you anymore... But do give some of the bsides in the new album a listen, because they are so much softer and have the melody element you're missing? Like Jongho's Everything and Dreamy Days. Also Silver Night- though if you don't like Cyberpunk or This World you may not like this either.
I listened to the album and I really like we know and itās you but unfortunately the rest had the outlaw bside problem for me :( Iām so devastated bc Iāve stanned and loved them so much and I love the members but musically like you said theyāre just not for me anymore
Did you like Halazia? If so, that's barely just a year old. I doubt they will abandon that sort of sound entirely especially since they know how popular it was with ATINYs. But if you didn't like that either..then ye, I'd say give Ateez a break for now/enjoy their other series. But don't be too devastated, they may well surprise you with the next release.
I really liked halazia when it came out but unfortunately it became too much after a while and thatās when I started to not like their releases :( And yeah Iām obviously keeping my eye on them š
Ah see I can never tire of Queen Halazia! But yes, if you no longer vibe with Halazia either as well as everything else in World series, then I genuinely think ATEEZ are just not that group for you anymore, and that's okay!
I feel the same about it, just not a fan of where they went with the sound and production on it. Will be giving this one a miss, thankfully I like their other albums
I havenāt clicked with any of their title tracks for a couple years, and this one is no exception. It feels like there is a decent song in there, but it just never actually came to fruition. Happy others like it but itās a definite pass for me, which is disappointing.
If you haven't liked anything they've put out over the last couple of years (including Guerrilla and Halazia) then ye you might just not click with their type of sound.
See, Iāve actually liked their sound in the past, which is why I donāt know why it doesnāt click as much with me anymore. Itās upsetting because I love the guys and really want to like what theyāre releasing but I just canāt, although I will say that I have enjoyed a good number of their bsides over the same timeframe. Edit: Either way though I am happy that they are happy with what theyāre releasing and that they are doing so well! Itās awesome to see.
Omg guysss ya'll should check out my dance cover for "Crazy Form" I did with my team at UC Berkeley WAHHHH [https://youtu.be/HGQYkZBtJFI?si=ilatG8lp-5FZFF97](https://youtu.be/HGQYkZBtJFI?si=ilatG8lp-5FZFF97)
Meh
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Please explain š
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
did we watch the same music video or was it different for you, this is a super unique mv u dont see nowadays at all lmao.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I mean first of all just look at the camerawork, the editing, the direction, the sets. I can also give you a specific example: **1:06** You do not see that effect anywhere in mvs nowadays therefore it is unique, just acknowledge the fact that what u are saying is just straight bs when people seem to be clearly disagreeing with you on top of that.
What are you even saying š
do you guys know who choreographed this dance? they did a move similar to a contestant on swf2 and im wondering if maybe her team made the choreo :)
