    This album is amazing and deserves all the praise and more. TXT never disappoint in terms of diversity when it comes to their music, and this album is no different. With a mix of genres, they truly outdid themselves this comeback.

    I really enjoyed this album. As a casual listener i can say that this albulm doesn't have the typical songs that you use to hear. How can i say it? this sounds more mature and youthful at the same time, plus i searched for the lyrics of some songs and you can sympathize with them, i really appreciate that since i'm not a big fan of the "rude/dominating boys" concept on k-pop

    All songs would easily pass as a title track being so different from each other you never get bored of listening to it

    This album has become one of my favorites. I like the fact that the songs are arranged like a roller coaster, first it starts in a sweet rhythm. The explosion of energy is clear in the middle of the album. Finally ending in an emotional way that captivates my heart. I really liked it

    Un album lleno de sentimientos. Es un album en el cual es evidente ver el crecimiento artístico de los integrantes. Desde vocalistas, a escritores a productores.

Por el simple hecho, que esa "raw voice" hace que las canciones tengan ese toque perfecto para que cada canción, sea placentera para el oido. desde"I know I love you" hasta "No rules", el mix es perfecto, el puentes encaja y el rap es sencillo pero catchy. Les doy un 9 por la simple razón de que se y estoy segura que ellos seguiran creciendo, mejoraran su toque e identidad artistica y nos seguirán dando mejores álbum. Teniendo un futuro por delante muy positivo y estoy preparada para gozarlo todito.… Expand

    Such an amazing and successful album, their discography has always been so diverse and The Chaos Chapter: Freeze only adds to that.

    A journey that explores music, growth and story-telling.
    It opens with a soft melodic song not too different from what we've seen before from the band, but I dare to say it is way better. Then, the atmosphere shifts from an anti-love song to the title track OX1=Lovesong, one that immediately captivates the listener through its heartfelt lyrics and, outstanding vocals and a style reminiscent of the

    Este álbum es el mejor que he escuchado en toda mi vida, para mí las letras de las canciones describen la realidad de muchos adolescentes incluyéndome, su música me ha ayudado mucho estos días y realmente me gustó mucho este álbum, es muy satisfactorio escucharlo desde el inicio al final sin saltarse una sola canción, realmente lo ame.

    To be honest, I wasn't sure If it was my taste, but once it started I realized it was way much better that I expected. I love how 0x1= lovesong makes you fells sad with that raspy voice, but then is No rules making you feel like life's a party.
    Every person who worked on this made a great job!

    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.
