    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Alcohol Free might not be their best title track as What is Love is soaring higher again but one of the best thing about the album is the bside tracks that was written by all the TWICE members. Probably one of the best albums of them with Fancy You, Feel Special, Twicetagram and Eyes Wide Open.… Expand

    I went into this EP and not having a lot of high expectations other than it being a decent pop EP, and it was. On the opening track, "Alcohol-Free," we get this blend of bossa nova guitar-playing and electronic beats, which admittedly I found to be intriguing. But overall, that song wasn't particularly noteworthy compared to all of the other tracks. My favorite song on the EP, "Scandal,"I went into this EP and not having a lot of high expectations other than it being a decent pop EP, and it was. On the opening track, "Alcohol-Free," we get this blend of bossa nova guitar-playing and electronic beats, which admittedly I found to be intriguing. But overall, that song wasn't particularly noteworthy compared to all of the other tracks. My favorite song on the EP, "Scandal," has a groovy bassline, catchy beats, and lyrics that are almost poetic in a way. For instance, in the hook, it goes: "Baby, we're scandal, way too hot to handle, you can't keep your eyes off, my love is like a candle." I think that using candles as a metaphor for short-lived relationships is very underutilized, in my opinion. My least favorite track, "Baby Blue Love," sounds like a bizarre déjà vu of a bunch of 90s dance-pop songs that I feel like everyone has heard before; so, it's kind of like "why are we here again?" Overall, I found this EP to be pretty enjoyable for its 17-minute run-time.

    Taste of Love consegue ser o álbum perfeito para o verão e ainda melhor para as outras estações do ano
    Desde sua title com uma Bossa Nova leve e contagiante até mesmo em suas b-sides mostrando o por que o twice recebe tantas críticas positivas em relação as suas escritas

    For long years kpop didnt had a great summer album like this. Baby blue love is def the bside of the year. things get only nicer when you know that 5/6 of the songs were writen by the members. DAhyun best lyricist.

    Amazing album, I've even bought my physical FALLEN version, each track It has its special beat with amazing lyrics, without talking about the voices, perfect, I love the girls, I've been following them since 2017 and I'm the biggest ONCE in the world, I hope they release another album later this year.

    Taste of Love is a good album, but it’s too “good” and not enough “wow” for its own good. TWICE can do better.

    ‘Taste Of Love’ is one of TWICE’s more powerful releases yet – despite a number of notable misfires – and showcases the group’s versatility in terms of vocals and concept execution.

    Taste of Love is one of TWICE’s most cohesive and dazzling albums thus far. It’s fun, mature and makes a great contribution to our current pop-sphere with its retro-sonic aesthetics and escapist feel.
