Last year, with two high-quality mini albums, KISS OF LIFE not only etched their name into the hearts of the public with over a hundred million streams on major domestic and international music charts but also rapidly rose as a global trendsetting rookie by winning awards such as the New Artist Award, Global Icon Award, New Wave Star Award, and New Artist of Next Generation Award.
Moreover, their overwhelming performances on various award show stages and their fierce live skills received high praise, earning them hot attention. The fans and public's praise of their unprecedented and fresh stages naturally raised expectations for KISS OF LIFE's next move.
To meet these expectations, they aim to take another step forward with this single album [Midas Touch].
["What is love?"]
"Do not be afraid to love."
"Regardless of the situation, or what anyone says, let's love freely."
'What is love?'
In this album, KISS OF LIFE talks about love.
Love, which comes to everyone like a spring breeze at least once, is discussed openly and unadornedly. Despite shedding tears or feeling pain, the discussion revolves around love in its most beautiful and noble form. Whether the love is directed towards 'oneself,' 'others,' or 'life,' the message is to love freely and truthfully rather than fear others' opinions.
Ironically, love is something we often long for and desperately want, yet sometimes we wish to avoid. This inevitable contradiction in human life prompts a deeper contemplation on love and relationships.
[Album Preview]
"When I touch ya, kiss ya you're gon realize."
“It’s not worth it. The way you make me feel I’m hurting.”
This album features the title track 'Midas Touch,' with its rough yet intuitive sound reminiscent of the 2000s mainstream, and 'Nothing,' an R&B track with lyrical melodies and mature vocals. These tracks are organically connected around the theme of 'love,' offering a glimpse into various aspects of love.
'Midas Touch' talks about the moment love begins, while 'Nothing' depicts the transformed love as it approaches its end, discussing the paradox of love that can become everything in life but also disappear in an instant, leaving nothing behind. This allows another glimpse into KISS OF LIFE's solid storytelling about love.
[Song Preview]
- Midas Touch (Title)
With an iconic sound and layers of synthesizers reminiscent of the 2000s pop era, 'Midas Touch' brings to mind the heyday of 2000s pop. Its simple yet fresh melody harmonizes with the sound composition, helping to focus more on the artist's voice.
The sincere lyrics about love, delivered by the members' unique vocals, make this song even more appealing.
- Nothing
“Nothing” contains a sample from “Painter's Playlist by Pelham & Junior”
'Reinterpreted with modern production and sentiment, 'Nothing,' a mid-tempo 2000s R&B track, harmoniously expresses rich sounds and emotions with strings and keyboards at its core.
The song, with its poignant emotional line as if representing the speaker's view of the changed other, impresses with its vocal delicacy and powerful vocal lead, leaving a lasting impression on the listeners.
This album, filled with KISS OF LIFE's sincerity and effort, is expected to bring them a golden, miraculous moment that will color their year.
