Asian Junkie Asian pop. Without discretion.
As a pop-punk revolution (close enough) washes over Korean music in earnest, there’s appropriately been a lot of female artists doing Avril Lavigne adjacent tracks, but AVOKID‘s “Over You” might be the most loyal to the subject material.
The instrumental foundation is rock solid and the momentum is constantly pushing things forward, but the jubilant chorus is the star here, anchored by the memorable “so I got over you, got over you” refrain. This works especially well with the theatrics towards the end that provide for a strong close.
Sure, it’s a song that feels like you’ve heard before, but also one that can stand on its own and you aren’t unhappy to hear again.
