![]() Is there a connection between it and your debut single “Crown” ? Jeff Benjamin: The lyrics and message in “Deep Down” are very intriguing about seeing one’s horns as a crown. I really liked this perspective of looking at reality and tried to reflect that in the lyrics. But rather than looking at this pain as an end, the song embraces this as growing pains and a process to mature in the end. HUENINGKAI: “Growing Pain” is about facing reality head-on and feeling that sense of pain in the process. Can you share the story behind this track? Jeff Benjamin: Going through some album songs, “Growing Pain” opens and stands out with its hard rock, almost metal sound. It resulted in a very dynamic performance that I think our fans will enjoy very much. ![]() We like to experiment and try something different for our performances, so voguing was a new but fun experience. A lot of the movements were designed to visually convey this sense of speed and a feeling of freefalling. Can you tell us the thinking behind it and how it complements the song?īEOMGYU: We wanted the choreography to reflect the message of the song. Jeff Benjamin: The choreography for “Chasing That Feeling” features voguing, which is rare for boy bands. It’s a youth anthem, but not like the romantic youth anthems people might expect, and lays out the pain and emptiness of reality which I think a lot of people will find relatable. HUENINGKAI: I think the retro, new-wave sound of the track works well because it captures a youthful and resilient energy. So it felt right as the lead single for the new album. It sings of a fresh start away from the sweet but irresponsible past which our previous album The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION dealt with. YEONJUN: “Chasing That Feeling” is a song that marks a new beginning in reality and an important turning point in the Name Chapter series. What made it the proper title track and how did you approach blending in your sound? Jeff Benjamin: You mentioned “Chasing That Feeling” has the '80s new-wave sound. At the same time, we want to put our own spin on them so that “TOMORROW X TOGETHER” can ultimately be a genre of its own. ![]() We don’t want to limit ourselves to one genre and continue to experiment with a variety of sounds. There’s 1980s-inspired new wave track “Chasing That Feeling,” hard rock-driven “Growing Pain,” and “Deep Down” which has a Jersey Club sound. TAEHYUN: We tried to experiment with new sounds and styles on this album as well.
