    THE CHAOS CHAPTER: FREEZE it's a PERFECT ALBUM, songs that represent every facet of today's society and a great reflection of generation z, this album is amazing, its repackage (FIGHT OR ESCAPE) it's amazing too, adding two new songs and a remix of the powerful song LOVESONG.

The vocals on Anti-Romantic are really beautiful, perfect song to open the album, Moving on to the powerful title track 0X1, a song in my opinion, deserving of many awards, the music video is PERFECT! Following the album we find MAGIC, a song 100% in English, the first of the group worth noting, very moved like magic, Ice Cream have a delicious, fresh, and forceful rhythm to give strength to the album, I love it. Balance game (What if I had been that PUMA) It is a very particular song on the album, and its lyrics are impressive, "choose your answer A or B", "I have to choose, but they still ask me if I am unable to decide my answer", as well as its rhythm. Listening it in concert is different. Speaking of No Rules, wow, an extremely upbeat song, its choreography proves it, but don't be fooled, the lyrics don't equal the rhythm, listen to the song and then read the lyrics, Maybe you will get a slight surprise. And Dear Sputnik and Frost to close is the best possible combination, I love Dear Sputnik, ohhh God the high notes here take you to heaven. Frost has an incredible video, which is part of the Universe of the group (THE STAR SEEKERS), MOA (TXT's fans) in particular, has great theories from that video. THE CHAOS CHAPTER: FREEZE is an album that you must listen to, just like the music videos and Performances of the songs...Well, once you hear the songs you will want to see them in performances or possibly live, I assure you they are impressive in concert. This album has 0 skips.… Expand

    I am not a fan of this group but this album is so good. This is my favorite album from TXT, every single song is a smash. No skips at all. The vocals on this album, particularly on the songs Anti Romantic and 0x1=LOVESONG, are incredible as well as their lyricism. There is simply not a bad song on this album. All the songs are different and unique. EVERY SONG in the album is my favorite.

    I am not a fan of this group and I just recently discoved them on Spotify, boy this album is so good. It is like a story book that you have to listen from start to finish. I still don't like Kpop but I think that I will give the genre a try.

    The titletrack is good but its just not my cup if tea. Especially since after this album the music started to get worse again. Like nobody can tell me that Good boy gone bad is a good song. If u really believe that u should check your ears

    This was a huge step forward for them. You can see how much their music matured in this album, while still maintaining their essence and continuing their story. Dear Sputnik is my personal favorite.

    nothing memorable from this album, songs that are ok are 0x1=Lovesong, it has not bad lyrics but the others are just as the generic txt type of music, no innovation at all

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am in love with this album. I heard people saying that The Chaos Chapter: Freeze is really a masterpiece and I cannot disagree with that. Starting from Anti-Romantic and ending with Frost, it gives the listener a wide range of emotions: makes you sad, makes you cry, makes you happy or makes you feel like you are the king of this world. The album has been on repeat since I heard it, and it will continue being my top10 albums all time.… Expand

    They boys surprised me. This album shows off their improvement in music, in their vocal skills... The repackage album is even better than this one, they did a great job. Looking forward for their next project.

    The thing about being TXT's fan is you never know what sound to expect for their next release. The trailers and teasers give me the feel and theme of the album, but the title track is always surprising for me, particularly with "Blue Hour" and now, "0X1 Lovesong."

    "0X1 Lovesong" stands out to me because of the strong and pure emotion in TXT's voices and the heartbreaking lyrics.

The trailers and teasers give me the feel and theme of the album, but the title track is always surprising for me, particularly with "Blue Hour" and now, "0X1 Lovesong."

    "0X1 Lovesong" stands out to me because of the strong and pure emotion in TXT's voices and the heartbreaking lyrics.

    TXT says that they put out music that reflects the stories of their generation (Gen Z), but I think that's not true. Their music is transcendent. Take "0X1 Lovesong" as an example. It's about feeling this deep devotion towards one person, and wanting them to love you back, or at least be accepted by them. And isn't that something all of us feel at least once?

    Other tracks that stand out to me are
    - "Balance Game (what if I had been that PUMA)" for its stylistic use of autotune and Yeonjun's standout rap
    - "Dear Sputnik" for the imagery in its lyrics and its authentic pop rock sound
    - "No Rules" and "Magic" for their upbeat sound and super fun choreo (the serotonin boosts we all need!)

    Overall, I commend TXT for an incredible comeback where they showcased musical range, vocal prowess, and their artistic contribution in songwriting and production. It is worth noting that they also have flawless performances where they all sing live and have stable vocals even with demanding choreography.

    I hope that TXT continues to make heartfelt and genuine music throughout their careers.    … Expand

Horrible from the begining to the end, no sense and cheap lyrics, plus they can't even write their own songs...the problem with txt music is that every song of them sounds like a discard from western industry...to sum up they are overrated and this reviews are ridiculous !!

    Don't wish to be a killjoy, but... this album lost me with the first track (after 3 seconds) and the lead singer's impression of what could have been a back-street boys number. From the mainstream reviews this was not what I was lead to believe.. photo does't represent apartment.

    This album brings a different vibe from the old ones. It feels like Tomorrow x Together has grown up in their music and got ready for the new race in the future. I highly recommend '0X1=LOVESONG'.

    This album is a demonstration of how BigHit Music’s in-house producers and TXT members' composing skills blend smoothly to experiment with sound in clever but relatable narratives. ... The Chaos Chapter: Freeze is a surreal album in which a mix of sounds, music genres, and metaphorical lyrics seem out of shape – until you step to the right distance to appreciate the whole painting.

    Aside from the delicate "Anti-Romantic," the rest of the effort keeps the energy high with its hybrid blend of electronic, hip-hop, and anthemic rock flourish, resulting in a wholly engaging listen that ends all too soon.

    This new record not only keeps up that 100 per cent strike rate of golden tunes, but also gives us their best release to date. It’s an album that represents huge growth. Their vocals are more powerful and emotive than ever. ... Like true Gen Z artists, they pull from an extensive palette of genres, but manage to make each – be it angsty rock or a return to disco-pop – feel like it’s a sound they’ve been honing for ages.
