aespa “is like some kind of Supernova,” and the K-pop quartet's latest music video for their upcoming first full-length album has once again consolidated their sonic presence in the industry. On Monday, May 13, the SM Entertainment girl group pre-leased the Supernova music video ahead of their forthcoming album comeback with Armageddon on April 27.

Akin to the lead single's title, the new aespa music video packs in heavy kicks and explosive bass despite its minimalist musical strengths and accompanying synth melody. As the song takes a step away from the group's usual soundscape, it may not emerge as a favourable tune to some listeners. Despite some perceived negative reactions, the new song's sound and video visuals align with the group's bombastic signature concept of attempting to break out of a boxed typecast with each comeback.

The quartet's ever-pleasing glam display softens the blow of jarring transitions that are further accentuated in AI-themed sequences of the video. The new visually mindboggling concept takes you by surprise while simultaneously fittingly fleshing out aespa's digitally-powered hyperpop identity that has stayed consistent since the members' debut in 2020. 

The long-time SM Entertainment collaborator and hit producer Kenzie participated in the dance track's composition and lyric-writing process.
