SIX BOMB - "WAIT 10 YEARS BABY"



Six Bomb is a group that probably needs an introduction. Six Bomb debuted way back in 2012 under Jang Entertainment as a sextet. It wasn't long before they were considered broken up. In 2015, Pace Maker Entertainment rebooted the band with an all-new lineup and a remake of "Step To Me," a song from their first mini-album. Now they're back with an original single, "Wait 10 Years Baby."

The song is okay, but nothing to write home about. It's kinda catchy, but there's not a lot to it. It feels stripped down and spare, with just a lonely synth beeping to keep the time. It's hard to tell about the vocals, nothing to distinguish any of the girls from one another, and there's no amazing bridge or anything similar. The only thing I liked was the rap, and that's because it broke up the monotony somewhat. I was hoping for more to it, maybe a more fleshed-out melody.



Not as strong as their previous releases, like "Chiki Chiki Bomb" and "Step To Me," so I was disappointed with this track. Well, we've waited 3 years, and then another year after that, so... yeah. I could have cheerfully waited longer for something of higher quality. Maybe even 10 years -- baby.

MV REVIEW


Some things can't be unseen. I'm not sure what this is. It defies description, simply because there's not a whole lot to describe. Semi-cute girls, revealing outfits, and then...pink bodysuits? Oh, and there's apparently a party going on. With balloons. And candy.

The wardrobe was okay, the leather goddess schtick is a little cliche, and the pink bodysuits were the wtf moment here. I'm not sure what they were going for, but I think I missed a concept somewhere. That being said, the outfits in the party scene were cute, but that was, unfortunately, a very small part of it.  



The dancing was rather lackluster. It seemed like they were just going through the motions, though everyone was in sync. It just seemed like something they were doing to muddle through, and not like they spent money on a choreographer. I was hoping that at least the dance sequences would excite.


In the music world, you need to make a video. Sometimes, it leads to an amazing visual feast that you want to replay again and again. This is not one of those times. It's like they didn't know what they wanted to do with it, so they filmed three different versions and took the best scenes (highly debatable) from each and cobbled them together. Or worse, they started filming and ran out of money three times. This MV was done on the cheap and looks it. I know they don't have the best quality MVs out there, but I think they could have done a bit better.
