Their new album, \u201cKillin\u2019 It,\u201d shares many similarities with that album regarding style, but \u201cKillin\u2019 It\u201d retains what made that album great but adds to it to make it stand out on its own.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If I&#8217;m going to be completely honest, when I first started to listen to this album, I got worried that the entire album was going to sound too similar to their previous EP\u2019s. You can definitely draw similarities especially during the first 2-3 songs, but as the album goes on, you get a better sense of the journey that the album, as a whole, is taking us on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With that out of the way, let&#8217;s get to some of the songs that really stood out and left a mark. I have to start with the title track, \u201cKillin\u2019 It.\u201d Earlier I said that the first couple of songs feel a little too similar to some of their previous EP\u2019s, but that\u2019s not really a criticism. \u201cKillin\u2019 It,\u201d for example, is similar in style, but it\u2019s still an absolute bop to listen to. Besides a pretty weird, but awesome music video (that you can watch <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/FlNxa-XD11U?si=jfVMUKeDMGIJ9P9C\">here<\/a>), \u201cKillin\u2019 It\u201d sets the energy for the rest of the album and immediately gets you hooked.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Killin&amp;apos; It\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/2E7qG81LXdZEfobhcrVm06?si=5088181cb922485f&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>One of my personal favorites on the album is \u201cEverybody Clap.\u201d I could criticize this song for feeling too \u201ccheesy\u201d or too \u201cdated,\u201d but 1: who am I to criticize any song on this album, and 2: this song is just so much fun I don\u2019t care. The style of this song does feel like something that would\u2019ve been released in the 2010\u2019s, but that&#8217;s part of the reason why I love it. The nostalgic feeling is what makes this song so fun.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Everybody Clap\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/3taNBAfxLf8UoXvUHynK9d?si=46bcb1f416834f77&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The album slows down a bit when we get to \u201cLove Story,\u201d and despite Taylor Swift not anywhere to be seen in this song, the slower pace is exactly what this album needed. \u201cLove Story\u201d allows us to catch our breath after the first three tracks, but other than that, it\u2019s just such a nice and calming song to listen to, that just might be my favorite song in the album.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Love Story\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/0EiLLYDKN28tRhTy0Jka5c?si=2b415a294b9243af&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The album immediately picks back up again with \u201cCountdown To Love,\u201d which features electrifying energy and a catchy melody. There&#8217;s not much else I can say about this song other than its just really fun.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Countdown To Love\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/7hpvcDZYb6sJTonWuRJb5w?si=de7e23784f8a4ac9&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The final track of the album, \u201cI See You,\u201d feels like it belongs in a completely different album. I don\u2019t say that as a criticism either. I\u2019m glad that they changed up the style in the last song to a more R&amp;B style beat because it just adds more contrast to the rest of the album which was mainly just upbeat pop.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: I See U\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/4gChwi9ApWB8TFaD1UYy5S?si=7636e1637b544557&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cKillin\u2019 It is such a fun album, despite some of my worries at the beginning. For this being P1Harmony\u2019s first full-length album, I think they knocked it out of the park. While P1harmony has grown in popularity over the last few years, I hope that this album catapults them even further. This album has definitely piqued my interest and I\u2019m looking forward to whatever they do next.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After releasing their 6th mini album back in June, P1Harmony is back with their first full-length album, \u201cKillin\u2019 It.\u201d Comprised of a total 10 tracks, \u201cKillin\u2019 It\u201d is a fun, up-beat album that continues to solidify P1Harmony as one of the most underrated groups working in the industry.
