Led by the single “LIKE YOU BETTER”, the comeback marks the group’s first release under their new label ASND, and their first drop as a five-member act—introducing a polished new sound that leans into warmth, introspection, and bright summer energy.
“LIKE YOU BETTER” blends crisp guitar riffs, dreamy synths, and laid-back percussion into a pop track that feels both carefree and emotionally grounded. The verses are conversational and rhythmically fluid, capturing the nervous charm of growing feelings, while the chorus bursts into layered vocals and sparkling melodies that echo the high of emotional clarity. And from start to finish, the production feels deliberately breezy, yet detailed, like the musical equivalent of driving with the windows down on a late summer afternoon.
The track sets the tone for the rest of From Our 20’s, a six-song project that explores the different shades of early adulthood. Tracks like “REBELUTIONAL,” “Twisted Love,” and “Strawberry Mimosa” play with genre and tone, moving between confidence, chaos, and subtle romance. The album as a whole taps into themes of identity, growth, and navigating complex emotions, all through a lens that feels honest and sonically cohesive.
And overall, with “LIKE YOU BETTER,” fromis_9 strikes a balance between evolution and familiarity. It’s a track that feels refreshingly light while still emotionally resonant—a fitting reintroduction for a group stepping confidently into their next chapter.
