About Album

About ‘Death’ – Love X Stereo [We Love We Leave, Part 2]

Working with world-renowned producer Adrian Hall, a completely new kind of electronic music is presented.

The single [Hide And Seek] of Love X Stereo released in October of last year appeared in the popular tvN drama ‘Cheese in the Trap’, and was designated as ‘the most mysterious and beautiful song’ among the OSTs, attracting public attention. The production of this new release of [Hide and Seek] dates back to the end of 2014, when the band was selected for the ‘Art Of Recording’ program hosted by KT&G Sangsangmadang, giving Korean indie artists a chance to work with a world renowned engineer/producer from UK.

Among the many applicants, the person who directly selected Love X Stereo was Adrian Hall who worked with Pet Shop Boys, Slipknot, Goldfrapp, Depeche Mode, etc. Adrian Hall participated as a co-producer and mixing engineer in the new album [We Love We Leave, Part 2]. It is said to have achieved unprecedented sound quality.

[We Love We Leave, Part 2] is the darkest and most intense of the results they have worked on so far. If [Part 1] released in 2015 was about ‘love’, this [Part 2] is about ‘parting and death’. During the preparation of this album, there were many incidents. The death of the late Shin Hae-chul, the young souls sacrificed in the Sewol Ferry, the late Kim Min-tae who was killed in Australia. And it is said that the band tried to capture the confused emotions felt in the music as the unfortunate events of people around them giving up their lives on their own were repeated.

As such, the album [We Love We Leave, Part 2] is filled with serious songs that contain their inner sadness, anger, and liberation. The dreamy guitar tone of Toby (guitar, bass, production), and the synthesizer arrangement of mysterious melodies, and the dynamic and appealing voice of Annie (vocal, synthesizer) leave a deep resonance in the chest, while providing a sound of “perfect” magic that seems to surround both ears.

The band name Love X Stereo has already been recognized as a representative of Korea at large overseas music festivals, and has appeared twice at the SXSW. This album has also prepared world-class perfection and music that has not been found in the Korean electronic music industry so far, and will spur domestic activities as well as continuous overseas activities.

Dead Beat Geneartion

Realization
Your eyes say I’m the only one
Teardrop from heaven
Your eyes say I’m the only one
Sweet salvation
Your lips say I’m the only one
Whisper from horizon
Your lips say I’m the only one
Dead beat generation

Beauties Die Young

Girl, you wanted to stay the night
Bedtime stories and pillow fights
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
You said there was a boy you had in mind
He looked so cool and he made you smile
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
You wanna be beautiful
Girl, you needed to stay alive
You haven’t even lived a lady’s life
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Leaving your life shouldn’t be a crime
But now you really missed your time to shine
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Dreams gone wild
We’re drownin’ in an ocean

Love Is On The Way

Love is on the way when all the light has gone
Love is on the way when everything goes wrong
Love is on the way when you ever feel so alone
Love falls from a star
Then it comes to your heart to love again
Love is on the way when all the ships go down
Love is on the way when darkness is around
Love is on the way when everybody’s bringing you down
Love falls from a star
Then it comes to your heart to love again
Love is on the way when all your dreams are gone
Love is on the way when you believe you’re done
Love is on the way
Sometimes it’s worth lingerin’ on
Love falls from a star
Then it comes to your heart to love again
Love falls from a star
Then it comes to your heart to love again
I’m gonna fall from a star
Then I’ll come to your heart to love again

New World

Can you hear the mourning silence?
Above the gray fields away
Can you see the lies around you?
My heart’s cold and yours is the same
Would you start another battle?
Would you kill another saint?
My heart’s broken into pieces
Will you bring me back again?
Take me away
Won’t you take me away?
Into the new…
Don’t make me stay
Won’t you take me away?
Into the new…

Hide and Seek

Your body was sinking into infinity
Your mind was sailing underneath insanity
Can you even hear me? I got a lot to say to you
Do you wanna leave me?
Whatever words i say, it won't matter to (you)
You play hide and seek
You sneak under the sea
Throw me down a ladder, I’m gonna climb infinity
Throw me down a jukebox, I wanna keep my sanity
Can you even see me? Just let me wave good bye to you
Do you really wanna leave me?
Whatever games you play, I'll be there for (you)
You play hide and seek
You sneak under the sea
Sun, light, darken fully
Teen, rage, hopeless fury
(lalalala)
Your body was sinking into infinity
Your mind was sailing underneath insanity
Can you even hear me? Still got a lot to say to you
Do you really wanna leave me?
Whatever games they play, I'll be there for (you)
You play hide and seek
You sneak under the sea
You play hide and seek
You sneak under the sea

Album Reviews

Trying to express different genres of color in one album can sometimes be too much or as a crude result. It's really hard to have both the diversity and simplicity of the sound, but if there's a duo that can do this, it's Love X Stereo. In [We Love We Leave, Part 2], the duo shows the combination of alternative, synth-pop and electronic music in a concise, delicate, and simultaneous rockin' manner.

Woosung Kang (Korean Music Awards)

The electro rock duo's kaleidoscopic synth-pop anthems that caught the ears of music festival audiences across Asia and North America are something closer to EDM or other indie bands.
