Background and release
[edit]It would be a lie to say that we didn't feel pressured, as we are showing a new beginning with our first album as five members.
— Park Ji-won, IZE[1]
In November 2024, Fromis 9 announced that their exclusive contract with Pledis Entertainment would be expire at the year's end, after being with the company since 2021.[2] Two months later, it was revealed that five members of the eight had signed with Asnd, another South Korean record label.[3] Once Asnd had secured the rights for the group to continue using the name, the label shared that the group was preparing new music.[4]
On June 9, Asnd announced the group would release their sixth EP, From Our 20's, on June 25.[5] The six song track list was revealed on June 11.[6] Teaser photos and videos were released in the lead up to EP's official release date of June 25, 2025.[7]
Music
[edit]"Like You Better" is a summer song, featuring a refreshing synth and a lively guitar riff, layered with an explosive yet pop-leaning melody in the chorus. "Rebelutional" has "bold, straightforward lyrics" and an "emotionally charged melody". "Love=Disaster" is a "high-teen, Punk Rock" track, characterized by "refreshing high notes" and "intense rock sounds." "Strawberry Mimosa" is described as portraying "the thrill and excitement of a budding romance", likening it to "the taste of a slowly sipped drink." The song includes lyrics and composition contributions by member Park Jiwon. "Twisted Love" is set against an emotional guitar riff, with the lyrics exploring the duality and complexity of love. The song features lyrics and composition contributions by member Song Hayoung. The closing track, "Merry Go Round" is described as having "rich, brass tones" that "evokes a nostalgic, comforting atmosphere." The lyrics express their desire to share every happy moment together with their fans.[8]
