One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! Lately (White Confession) (from Lately – 2011) Some things just go perfectly together, and Sweetune + Christmas is one of them.

Julia (from Over The Top/Paradise – 2011) Julia’s most indelible hook has no words, leading the track with a nonchalant, almost disconnected delivery. But the rest of the song is no slouch, either. The falsetto-driven chorus is a real treat, as is … Continue reading →

I Like You (from Infinitize – 2012) Though 2012’s Infinitize was led by one of the group’s most bombastic singles, the actual album is much more laid-back in nature.

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! Hysterie (from Evolution – 2011) Built upon flashes of rhythm guitar, big brass flourishes and enough nimble bass to power several songs, Hysterie stands as one of Infinite’s funkiest tracks.

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! Footsteps (from Reality – 2015) Taken from one of the group’s strongest albums, Footsteps feels a bit meandering when stacked up with the material surrounding it.

Fixed Star (from First Invasion – 2010) Fixed Star is Infinite’s first ballad, giving us a taste of just how well-matched the group’s vocals are for this style.
