Same here actually. While I kinda liked Boomerang, I didn't like Sweet Lies at all (it was way too American trap-sounding for me, I don't get why it was so popular.), and Power was so meh.
As for the actual album, I only really liked Walk on Memories, which just goes to show again how much better EXO's ballads are lol.
I liked parts of Forever (mainly Chen sounding awesome in the Chorus), I liked the super cool acoustic guitar bridge of Diamond (the rest of that song is so weird tho), I liked parts of Chill (before that really weird drop where the song completely changes), and that's...about it. Lol. The rest of the songs were okay but they were too Western sounding for me (especially What U Do, blergh)
While I didn't hate the album or anything, I certainly didn't love it either and I still think Ex'act/the Lotto repackage is their best album. (While I hated Lotto as a song, the repackage tracks like She's Dreaming and Can't Bring Me Down were SOOO GOOD).
One good thing I will say about the Power album though is that there is a lot of Chen in many of the songs and he sounds so good and I can't get enough of his voice so that made the album a lot more tolerable for me, but overall yeah, it wasn't their best.
Currently listening to f(x): Jet.
Lunas high note!!! ♡♡
Yesss I mean, I don't hate the album - but there's no song that actually I liked from beginning to end. The songs were alright, but there's no song that completely captivated me like the way, for example, White Noise from Ex'act did. Completely agreed on that part about Chill. I was like, oh okay this I could like but then whyyy. And yess about the rest of the album were too western sounding (too... American, for lack of better word) and tbh that's the reason why most people really liked it but that's the reason for me to not liking it lol. I watched a line distribution video for the whole Power album and D.O. actually got the most lines in almost all songs (thanks to his adlibs here and there), followed closely by Chen - but Chen is more noticeable due to his tone. If I didn't watch the video I would thought Chen got the most lines.
Ex'act and the repackage on the contrary isn't too popular within the EXO-L (as far as the comment on YouTube I read) but I think that's EXO's best release so far. If they didn't sing it so obnoxiously, I could picture myself liking Lotto a lot. The beat and the melody are actually really pleasant to listen to. That song was composed by the same team that did f(x)'s 4 walls after all - it's just the way they sang was the only thing that hindered me from liking it. They sang it so obnoxiously but weirdly that's why that song got easily stuck in my head. Lipstick chateau wainbit color~lalalala
