B2ST Comeback with mini-album "Midnight Sun"



            Popular boy band B2ST is coming back with their 5th mini-album titled "Midnight Sun." I laugh quietly at the title, because either it's very clever that they're referencing Stephenie Meyer's unpublished draft of the same name, or going to try and become pale sparkling vampires for their comeback concept. I would actually applaud their comic audacity if they did come back as Edwards. Just sayin'. Their first track from the mini-album is called, "Midnight Sun," and will be released on July 15th, one week prior to their comeback. The track is going to feature the members' dramatic vocals paired with guitar and piano sounds.

If any junior band can try out a more mature, sophisticated image, B2ST would be on the top of my list. Their previous performances for "Fiction" have further proven that they've mastered the "love is pain" idea. I like that they have moved onto more refined themes at a time when new boy bands are boasting their masculinity through aggressive dance numbers or being charming in cute, cheery confessions. Yes, young love is exciting, jaded and angsty, but its the silent longing displayed by the seasoned lovers that really brings intrigue to a love song.



Teaser images of the members have been released. In the black and white photographs, the boys are in shadow, taken from the chest up. This time around, the theme seems to be quiet, manly sophistication, as they are dressed in fancy sport jackets highlighted by metallic accents with sleek hairstyles. Individual teaser videos of the members will be released leading up to their comeback.
