ChRocktikal Unveil 'Bloom & Gloom' Tracklist

Last week, South Korea's ChRocktikal announced the release date of their first EP Bloom & Gloom, following on from their debut album We break, you awake from earlier this year. As guitarist Lee Wonseok described it in a livestream recently, this EP will have a refreshing, summery vibe as opposed to the bite of the LP, and now we have a glimpse at the track listing for the impending release, set to come on September 4th (the evening of September 3rd for local audiences in South Korea).

The tracklist is as follows:

1. Intro
2. REQUIEM
3. 영원할 초록 빛깔의 너이기에 (Because You'll Always Green)
4. WTH
5. 사랑 (Guilty)
6. ¡CORRE!

Even with the brighter vibe promised, the artwork for the track reveal borrows from the blacks and reds of We break, you awake. Closing with a song with a Spanish title continues in the recent streak of K-pop groups embracing Hispanic and Latin cultures, such as ATEEZ's "Mamacita" or KATSEYE's "Gabriela," or more recently ENHYPEN's "Bloody Paradise."

Pre-orders are available now for the EP, releasing on September 3rd at 6pm KST local time.

Later in September, ChRocktikal will embark on their first European tour, with the following dates announced:

09/09 Berlin, DE @ Columbia Theater
09/11 Cologne, DE @ Luxor
09/15 Strasbourg, FR @ Maison Bleue
09/17 Amsterdam, NL @ P60
09/18 Paris, FR @ Alhambra
09/21 Prague, CZ @ Roxy
09/23 Warsaw, PL @ Palladium
