3RD FULL-LENGTH ALBUM
The Golden Age
8eight, the co-ed trio that won Showvival, returns with its well-made third album 'The Golden Age'!
Like the group’s first and second albums, lyricist/composer Bang Si-hyuk of ‘Like Being Hit by a Bullet’ produced 8eight’s third album, upgrading its music with maturity and luxuriousness. The title song of the third album ‘Without a Heart’ is well-known as the song that producer Park Jin-young listened to for 24 hours. He also asked if So-hee of Wonder Girls, whom he much cares about, could make an appearance in the music video. All this show how highly he thinks of the song ‘Without a Heart.’ Not only Park Jin-young but also many other insiders gave 10 out of 10 to this song, which again testifies its excellence. As such, ‘Without a Heart’ demonstrates 8eight’s maturity over the group’s unique exciting beat while maintaining the sensibility of a sad song.
Bang Si-hyuk, who wrote the mega-hit song ‘Like Being Hit by a Bullet’ sung by Baek Ji-young, also wrote the lyrics and composed ‘Without a Heart,’ which is the second song of the break-up trilogy. The first is ’30 Minutes Ago’, which has yet to be released. ‘Like Being Hit by a Bullet’ is the second-stage, which is about the moment one learns of the parting. ‘Without a Heart’ conveys the emotion after the break-up, and is the last song of the break-up trilogy, yet was released before ’30 Minutes Ago.’ So Hee transformed into a vampire for 8eight dressing up in a middle-age gothic dress with femme fatale makeup and took a drastic departure from her usual Wonder Girls retro style to reinforce the power of ‘Without a Heart’. Even before the release, fans were excited to see the attractive vampire music video of ‘Without a Heart’.
