Congratulations aespa!
On May 27, 2024, aespa released Armageddon as the title track for their first full-length album of the same name. It is a well-performed and carefully produced song, a vocal showcase for the girl group.
The composition comes with a dramatic bridge just before the chorus, breaking the monotonic melody. On the other hand, the music video also captured the essence, while keeping true to aespa’s signature futuristic concept. Armageddon is truly a strong centerpiece.

Following the success of their first full-length album, aespa made their highly-anticipated comeback with their 5th Korean language mini-album Whiplash. On October 21, the EP arrived with the lead single of the same name and five more exciting tracks.
Whiplash peaked at No. 50 on Billboard 200 and No. 2 on the World Albums Chart, showing why the quartet is considered one of the strongest girl groups in K-pop currently. Meanwhile, aespa bagged the Song of the Year title at the 2024 MAMA Awards with their chart-topper Supernova.
