REVIEW: F.Cuz - For Century Ultimate Zest

Why hello there! It's J here, and I'm back with another review and this time it's none other than the 'For Century Ultimate Zest' album by F.Cuz! "Who? F what?" you might ask.

F.Cuz might be a little underrated it seems, but I would like to say that this album is a faaaaantastic album consisting of 5 tracks and 1 remix track, and that F.Cuz, who debuted back in January of 2010 with "Jiggy", really did a great job with this. The addition of their new members Raehyun and Daegeon was definitely a good move, IMO. Without further ado, I present to you 'For Century Ultimate Zest'!


The size of it is a little larger than your normal CD case, and it has a star cut-out flip cardboard case. The cardboard isn't flimsy at all, so +1 for that, and another +1 for the unique cut-out cover! I'm a real sucker for packaging and design. :(


Contained inside the foam barrier you get your standard photobooklet, the CD, and a bigger than normal photocard/postcard. Though I would've loved a Yejun photocard, can't complain at all with Kan's. :')


Inside the booklet are amajjjinggggg high quality photos, and I've taken a few photos for your eyes to feast on - you're welcome. :P The photo below is also the photo featured on the poster!


The title track in this album is "No. 1", WHICH I KID YOU NOT IS A HELLA KICK ASS SONG. If you have not listened or watched it yet... Click on the link below like, nao.


The girl in the MV is fully ninja and kick ass and basically just slays everyone. It's epic.


I would very much like to recommend another two tracks from this album which have been on my repeat playlist ever since this album came out, and they are "전화좀 받아 (Answer The Phone)" and "있을때 잘해봐 (Be Good To Me When We're Together)". The latter track is the Korean version of their 2nd Japanese single "Luv Holic" back when it was only Jinon, Yejun, and Kan. To be honest, I prefer the Korean version over the Japanese version so much better, but maybe that's just me.   


 Oh, HQ, how I love you so.


This is definitely a koala-tea album, and if you're looking for some fantastic melodies with catchy beats, do give this album a chance.

Til next time!
