First Time Hearing Stray Kids "Venom" Reaction

[@sevynlira]

that twisting noise is like a wire being pulled around something tightly. The spiderweb imagery of the lyrics goes SO seamlessly. It REALLY invokes a sensation of tight winding. PERFECTION from Our 3racha.

[@GOTGames]

I love your description! You're absolutely right! Perfect ❤️

[@catz2701]

Its always sounded like they were peeling the note off something. Like a sticker being pulled off a surface, except its the note being peeled out of the instrument. if that makes sense lol. I love it so much

[@GOTGames]

AH THIS ONE WAS AWESOME!! Love that beat!!

[@hortbeck]

[@Юля-г4м]

I subscribe to see your reaction to Red Light)))

[@skzgs8170]

I love your reaction because I LOVE ODDINARY album, VENOM sooooo much ! Just FYI exactly because Stray Kids is so UNIQUE in self-producing their own music genre and NOT Korean mainstream style, they are not perceived popular in Korea. With this album Stray kids is charting globally (again) and BB200, and a lot of fans from other fandoms who are still in disbelieve, come up with criticism and rumours to discredit the overseas popularity ( and sales) of Stray Kids. I think your reaction just once again proves that Stray Kids are stunning and shining with their talent in every aspect, and people got attracted even when they don’t speak Korean.

[@laceylambert4239]

You should check out "Falling Flower" or "Thanks" by SEVENTEEN. I really think you would enjoy them!!! (:

[@8nana8]

I'm so glad you're enjoying Stray Kids so much, they are indeed one of a kind :)

[@GOTGames]

They really are! Love how different every song of theirs seems to be! ❤️

[@LeeKnow3rdEye]

They have always been different and their sound has been different and that is why they have always been called noise music. They do so many cool things in their music and it’s never the same. They are always experimenting. What I love about these guys is they can switch up from dark to a beautiful ballad and slap it out of the park. These guys are amazing. Keep a look out for their tour.

[@GOTGames]

Ah if they come the UK I will be there!! ❤️

[@seooh_]

When you think they can't outdo themselves... They just did THIS. Hyunjin in this MV will be the end of me. I'd just want to add that all Stray Kids songs are produced and written by 3 of the members (3 RACHA: Chan, Changbin and Han) you can tell the total support and trust their label has placed in them. Waiting for your Red Velvet reaction, btw. You are gonna love them. Believe me, Luke. They have been playing on a different level for 7 years :)

[@GOTGames]

Really? That's amazing how much control they have over their tracks, that really shows actually now you've pointed it out, ah I love that!! And maybe... Coming sooner than you think 👀

[@marrr2563]

@@GOTGames they got a lot of control over their music, companies are usually so strict and don't give much freedom to their artists even jyp (stray kid's company) are like that, but for some reason stray kids are given so much freedom when it comes to creating their music and choosing the songs they want to perform on stage. jyp really trust 3racha.

[@Heathmah]

You should also give their performances on "Kingdom: Legendary War" a listen (which was a TV show on MNET that pitted several successful Kpop groups together). They had missions where they would redo songs, mashup songs by their competition, shuffled up members across the different groups, and mashup songs by other artists, then perform them in amazing staged semi-live performances. God's Dhu Dhu Dhu for example - a mashup of their songs plus a Blackpink song. All of the performances were pretty amazing - not just by Stray Kids, but all of the groups. All of the performances from the show are up on MNET's youtube channel.

[@ladyshar42]

this!

[@Heathmah]

Sorry for the typos. Here is a link to the Blackpink/Stray Kids mashup performance kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXW3eGmlZtt2aKs

[@xgwomanx]

Yes!

[@LiveANoursishedLife]

I love their performances in Kingdom but especially Wolfgang!

Looking forward to that introduction! You'll be blown away by how talented they all are individually. SKZ is another universe.

[@silverstarli]

This is my favorite track on the album. I like how the instrumentals sound sticky like a spider web. If you check out their YT channel, they have an intro video for this album. Thanks for your reaction, your enthusiasm is so infectious :)

[@GOTGames]

Ah it's such a good one!! Oh yeah? Will definitely check that out! Much love ❤️❤️

[@순이-p6f]

you might want to check out their video called [INTRO "ODDINARY"] for the breakdown. though they might not get too much into detail about the production process of venom since they talked about the whole album preparation in general. they release those intros before every album drops. it's probably the best stray kids content if you want to see more of them talking about their craft.

[@emmabrown9906]

You don’t categorise stray kids, they’ve invented their own musical universe and we love it 😍

[@saeedtalebipoor2831]

It feels good buddy we see same feeling from people watching what we love , so this makes me proud of be a "Stay" Stay is stray kids fandom name

[@astridd6123]

The beat drops of MANIAC and VENOM are seriously genius. I too have no idea what genre it is, but it's my favourite for sure!

[@matthewtrocinski7926]

They just dropped a music video for their song freeze.

[@Bamgeutcutiepie]

the way this song tickles your ears... it's thrilling and sensual and scary. the lyrics are so terrifying but also sexy? .... i don't get how they are doing this.. they are AMAZING. been playing this song on repeat.

[@BunnyOnTheCoast]

That DEEP voice belongs to our Aussie Felix! 😍🤩

[@katechernykh]

The thing is that Stray Kids are already a genre themselves. Each member has it`s own uniqe talent and when they mix it together we get true masterpieces. They are so versatile, so amazing in everything, literally! Rap, vocals, lyrics, different kinds of concepts (dark, sexy, cute etc). For what they will not undertake, they do everything more than perfectly. Seriously. Hope you check other songs from new album ODDINARY, they are just... I don`t even have words. If you`d like to know their story, there is a reality show "Stray Kids" where you can see their pre-debut times. There are also a lot guides to them on KZbin) Thank you for such amazing reactions! Your emotions bring me back at my early k-pop times) It was the same to yours. The day when I knew about SKZ I fell into all this stuff in the blink of an eye and this makes me happy and grateful every day!

[@m4th1ld3_]

if you like the cinematic aspect of their music videos DEFINITELY check out their trailers for the albums especially the oddinary trailer (for the maniac album) and noeasy trailer (for the thunderous album). THEY ARE SO GOOD and had me hyped for both albums so much and they were just so cinematic and the oddinary one was straight out of a marvel movie

[@wonyoungiesgirl]

this beat imitates the stickiness of a spiderweb! stray kids love creating new sounds to describe things that don't necessarily already have a sound of its own & its absolutely fascinating

[@susyfrnco]

They have this introduction video for the album. They talked about a few songs, their process, and other stuff related to the making of the album. I don't know if it has already English captions, but if you're interested you can watch it when their available 😉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKnVqq2wo9ebe9k

[@stayblinksassy296]

You have to check all the album "Oddinary" 7 songs you will love all new sound🔥

[@Paula-kc2wo]

i think is a great moment to hear their very first song HELLEVATOR, they were in the top since they started in the kpop industry. 3RACHA and all the members...they are awesome

[@poppyrechner1945]

heyoo, the blond guys voice you like it Bang Chan, he is the leader and part of the producing team 3racha and he was originally part of the rap line but also has an amazing voice so now hes pretty much vocal line, he sings the high stuff at the end of maniac which is insane. also hes aussie along with felix who has the deep voice there is one more music video coming out for this album, FREEZE, which im sooo excited for, it has such a story line to it from what i can see in the teaser. also the whole album is already out, called ODDINARY, its beautifullll also you can never look too far into stray kids, and there is a break down look at their channel or JYP's channel for the album break down, so yeah sub to their channels to see their new songs

[@tapioooca5182]

he's part of the vocal line. please stays, the guy hasn't rapped in like last 3 albums and the unit songs in oddinary is split as vocal line and rap line. he clearly wants to be known as a vocalist before a rapper. can u edit your comment please? ^^

[@tapioooca5182]

the blond with the beautiful vocals in pre-chorus is bang chan, the main producer. he even contributed to the beat, there was a footage of him making a beat 2 yrs ago and it was the bridge part of this song. the lyrics and topline is not even a question, 3racha (bang chan, changbin, han) always write and compose them.

[@OkayKrystal]

Well good news for you, the album is out and you can listen to the whole thing! But Maniac and Venom are the only ones with full music videos so far. Also here is a link to the Intro to Oddinary where they talk a little bit about the songs amongst other stuff kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKnVqq2wo9ebe9k

[@GOTGames]

I don't understand how I missed this! The album is out?! Ah now I have to decide whether to get the album, or wait for the music videos and get the album after that way my reactions to the videos will be the first time hearing the song... Hmm Might have to leave it up to you all ❤️

[@OkayKrystal]

@@GOTGames The album dropped at the same time the Maniac MV dropped! They hyped up Maniac a LOT so I can see where the actual album drop could have been missed. In my opinion, I don't think you should hold out on these guys. Listen to the album! React to the songs even if they don't have MVs! Enjoy the boys because they are truly special human beings. They've promised us TWO albums this year (and a lot of other goodies) so you've gotta get caught up and become a STAY and choose your bias (mine is Lee Know) before the next comeback!!

[@valeriacabrera9084]

@@GOTGames i think you can make a reaction for the album, only if you want, of course, but i will love it if you do :D srry bad english btw

[@Sviet]

We all are going to be old people dancing to Stray Kids crazy beats, don’t worry 😆 They sold more than 1.3 million copies in the the pre-order of this new album. They definitely are the leaders of the 4th gen ❤️

[@sabs_1108]

I agree.... That's what skz making so special. They are such genius guys Can't wait to see the guide reaction

[@RJAWriter]

The blond guy with the "Corpse Husband" voice you can't get enough of is my ult bias Felix! He's Korean-Australian, like the leader Bang Chan (the one who had the arrow aimed at his chest in the shot with the bow and arrow).

[@christinemarino8960]

They did make #1 on top 200 billboard

Stray Kids is definitely my favorite 4th generation boygroup along with Ateez, they're so talented.

[@raesutphin2468]

Thanks for recognizing Stray kids! They are So good, fire!!

[@Lesava1]

This song shocked me in the best way possible, and the MV topped my shock at the song itself. Chang Bin at the beginning, OMG! Just terrific. Have a beautiful day!

[@MBella123]

I love this song even more than Maniac. The MV is so crazy and dark, they look hot AF! Felix voice always amazes me because it’s so deep and it’s like velvet caressing my ears hahahahha Seungmin for me took the cake on this song because his voice is so piercing and gorgeous, when he comes in after the super hard rap verse it’s so good. And of course the part where he sings with Felix is my favorite of the song

[@astridd6123]

No but in all seriousness they look sooooo freaking hot, like the styling is insane. Changbin in that box is actually killing me...

Oh yeah, every song is different. Definitely darker style. And yes, there are interviews with them. I'd do a guide first if possible. This whole album is amazing.

[@canadianharuka]

Thank you for reacting to this! And hey, I’m already almost 60 and Skz make every day happier!

[@straykidsstay3087]

Maniac is the title from their new album Oddinary. Both the album and the Maniac MV dropped at the same time, so you can go and listen to the rest of the album anytime~ There are seven tracks on the album, two of which are unit tracks, and yes, the entire album is a collection of extremely diverse, multi-genre tracks that the members have described as all relating back to Maniac and being connected that way. When I first listened to the album, my first thought was just how cohesive it was, how well everything went together, and yet all the tracks are strikingly different. They really went all out this time with a completely new sound and so many styles and genres in one. Stray Kids produce their own music (3RACHA is the pre-debut producing/rapping subunit composed of leader Bang Chan, Changbin, and HAN) and have always had a distinct sound and identity even in their pre-debut days, but they really solidified their signature sound and matured with the album God's Menu era, to the point that they were even dubbed the "malatang genre," living up to their God's Menu concept of producing music to satisfy all five senses that'll keep you coming back for more. Since then, they have only continued to grow and to create music no one has ever heard before that is unapologetically Stray Kids. This album is definitely darker and creeper than their other stuff and really stands out from the rest of their discography. As for new music video releases, I'm willing to bet we will get at least one more for either Ddaeng/Freeze or Lonely Street. They will release making films of the behind the scenes filming for these two songs, whether that will be for the unveil tracks they released as teasers before the album dropped or for a yet unreleased music video. Normally, SKZ has some kind of video for at least half the songs on their album, so we'll see have to wait and see what else they release. As for a behind the scenes about the actual songs, they always release an intro video for each album that talks about their musical process and the songs on this album, them as artists and insight into some of the tracks and includes some behind the scenes clips from recording sessions and dance practice. They released one for Oddinary the night before the album drop, so they can only say so much without giving too many spoilers, but it's basically them hyping their album for about 20 minutes. This is probably the closest you'll get to the members breaking down the songs like you were asking about at 9:08 Here's the link if you're interested in watching: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKnVqq2wo9ebe9k

[@LiveANoursishedLife]

LOL I'm going down your rabbit hole of watching SKZ and I love it!

[@순이-p6f]

this mini album has 7 tracks. it's kind of stray kids' brand to release several music videos every comeback haha. after the album drops, they drop the bside mvs one by one. Venom is the first one. we'll probably get two more (Freeze and Lonely St.). it's up to you if you want to listen to those two already or wait for the possible mvs. but you can listen to Charmer, Waiting for us, and Muddy Water since those will surely have no mv :) thank you for appreciating stray kids. it's always nice seeing people discover this amazing group.

[@brianal1808]

Absolutely enthralled with this song! 😍

[@monsterhanna6691]

That pre-chorus, though! 😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥 One thing that I've noticed with their discography is that they always, ALWAYS slap with the pre-chorus. God's Menu, VENOM, Any, Miroh, Back Door, Thunderous, MANIAC etc., they always fucking SLAP with them. Just one more reason why I adore them. 😍😍😍

[@elenacastrp2760]

my dream, is a one day the Knetz listen to these words and understand the BIG talent of Stray kids

[@itst1411]

They always amaze us with their music creativity and diversity, they always come up with new things BUT this album is totally nuts , they did something sooo unique and new . loved your reaction , you really need to react to the other songs especially “CHARMER” it’s one of my fav🥲🥺

So disappointed handsome guy. PLEASE don't forget

[@Veraano2213]

For me, the best thing to do is hit notifications on the official skz twitter, that's how i know a mv is out.

[@behindzerosp]

Venom has clear theme of control and being controlled mainly in relationship, they have several songs that partly or fully have this theme ,Red lights also part of Back Door with Changbin`s [here he is the guy who starts with rap in back door he is the guy rapping when they are in the dark] lyrics saying he will take control over the body of the listener since they didn`t take good care of it and he "will make it all better", Changbin uses innuendoes a lot

[@beccab1901]
