One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! Only Tears (from Infinitize – 2012) One of Infinite’s most delicate ballads, Only Tears’ gentle mix of piano, guitar and strings provides little distraction from the purity of the group’s vocals. Even so, the instrumental builds gorgeously, becoming more grandiose as the song … Continue reading →

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! Nothing’s Over (from Inspirit – 2011) Sweetune are at their best when they go ultra-melodic, and Nothing’s Over is one of their essential tracks. From the opening, piano-accented beat to the soaring melodies that make up the chorus, the song is life-affirming pop … Continue reading →

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! Mother (from Destiny – 2013) Sometimes a song is more about sentiment than melody or production. It’s hard not to fall for an ode to moms, no matter how treacly it might come across. Even so, Mother is one of Infinite’s less … Continue reading →

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! Moonlight (from Reality – 2015) Infinite have only worked with producers Seo Young-bae and Iggy two times, but both collaborations have resulted in absolute knockouts. Strong enough to be a title track, the strings-driven, disco-kissed Moonlight is one of the group’s best … Continue reading →

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! Monster Time (from Telemonster OST – 2015) One of the more idiosyncratic entries in Infinite’s discography, Monster Time was recorded for the soundtrack of an animated kid’s show. That explains some of the bizarre lyrics. But as the group matures in sound … Continue reading →

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! Memories (from Season 2 / Be Back – 2014) Memories is the kind of song that sneaks up on you. It’s not immediately impressive as it floats along a warm, mid-tempo groove, but its modest arrangement is carried out with such verve … Continue reading →

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! Man In Love (from New Challenge – 2013) One of Infinite’s most joyous, upbeat explosions of pop, Man In Love doesn’t always receive the accolades it deserves. In fact, when it was first released, its insistent buoyancy seemed too fizzy and bright … Continue reading →

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! Light (Sungkyu solo) (from Season 2 / Be Back – 2014) A real breather moment on the Season 2/Be Back album, Light takes a soft approach that requires a few listens to fully ingratiate itself. Gone is the sense of unique quirkiness … Continue reading →

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. Lately supplies Infinite with the kind of surging, ultra-melodic pop sugar rush their first few years were built on, but by adding … Continue reading →

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! Last Romeo (from Season 2 / Be Back – 2014) Perhaps Infinite’s most underrated single, Last Romeo is their final (at least for now) collaboration with Sweetune. The song augments their 80’s synth sound with live band production that gives the instrumental … Continue reading →

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! 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 →

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! Inception (from Destiny – 2013) With a title like Inception, you might expect something truly mind-bending. The song doesn’t go that far, but it is one of the most unique entries in Infinite’s catalog. Driven by a slinky synth loop and mid-tempo groove, … Continue reading →

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! In The Summer (from Infinitize – 2012) A staple of their live shows, In The Summer‘s warm acoustic nature is Infinite at their least guarded. The song steps away from the high-tempo dance pop that characterizes most of their work, but maintains … Continue reading →

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! 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. I Like You strikes a nice balance between the era’s more acoustic leanings and a … Continue reading →

One song. Every day. Alphabetical order. Keep up with Infinite’s A-Z reviews here! I Don’t Know (from Evolution – 2011) One of Infinite’s most aggressively energetic tracks, I Don’t Know blasts forward on a blend of frantic electronics and crunchy guitar reminiscent of 90’s j-pop and video game soundtracks. That all sounds like a recipe … Continue reading →

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. That it came so early in their career is impressive, and that … Continue reading →
