NMIXX – Fe3O4: FORWARD

Review

NMIXX absolutely killed it with 'Fe3O4: FORWARD'! This fourth EP from the K-pop powerhouses is serving versatility for days, jumping between genres with the confidence of a group that knows exactly what they're doing. 'High Horse' and 'Ocean' are total standouts, showcasing their ridiculous vocal abilities while keeping the energy turned all the way up. The production is so crisp and dynamic that I've had this on repeat since drop day, and I'm not even sorry about it.

What's giving me life about this EP is how they've managed to weave these themes of self-discovery and growth throughout the tracks. The lyrics hit different when you realize these girls are taking us on their personal journey. The way they blend these emotional moments with their signature sound evolution is exactly what we need in 2025 when everyone's trying to sound like everyone else. NMIXX is out here doing their own thing, and we're all better for it!

I'm obsessed with how they've packaged this release too—the 'Ready Ver.' and 'Shell Ver.' are collector's dreams with totally unique vibes and contents. It's giving marketing genius while still serving the music first. 'Fe3O4: FORWARD' isn't just cementing NMIXX as major players in the current K-pop scene—it's showing us they've got the range to push boundaries while keeping their core energy that fans live for. If you haven't streamed this yet, what are you even doing with your life? - Piper
