What to know about the songs on ‘The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION’

TXT revealed the tracklist for The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION on Jan. 20. The upcoming mini-album has five tracks.

According to a press release about the EP, “The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION depicts youth on the brink of adulthood” and is “a conceptual album which tells a cohesive story through its individual tracks.”

The press release also reveals that “‘Sugar Rush Ride’ tells the story of a boy who falls to the sweet temptations of a devil. The temptations of the devil are compared to a ‘sugar rush’ which sweeps in sweet but is ephemeral in nature.”

As with some of their past albums, Soobin, Yeonjun, Beomgyu, Taehyun, and Huening Kai were part of the album-making process for The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION.

On the song “Happy Fools (feat. Coi Leray),” the press release reports that Yeonjun is the “topliner, while the other five members have made contributions as lyricists taking inspiration from their personal experiences.”

Yeonjun and Taehyun both have credits on the song “Tinnitus (Wanna be a rock)” and Yeonjun is also credited on “Farewell, Neverland.”
