Stray Kids于11月10日发行全新迷你专辑《樂-STAR》及主打曲《樂 (LALALALA)》。

Stray Kids凭借2022年的《ODDINARY》和《MAXIDENT》以及2023年6月的正规专辑《★★★★★(5-STAR)》等作品连续三次登上美国Billboard 200榜首,作为"K-POP第四代领头者"展现出与众不同的气势。 随后作为首个进入日本Fukuoka Paypay Dome、Nagoya Vantelin Dome、Osaka Kyocera Dome、Tokyo Dome等日本四大巨蛋公演的K-POP四代男子组合，"5-STAR Dome Tour 2023"系列公演在日本4个城市共举办8场演出，公演在预售阶段就超过了250万的购买量，达成了超高速全席售罄的优越成绩，再次印证了组合的优越人气。另外，去年9月以" Stray Kids 2nd World Tour "MANIAC" Seoul Special (UNVEIL 11)" 进入KSPO DOME的他们，今年10月又在韩国最大的室内演出场高尺巨蛋举行单独演唱会“Stray Kids 5-STAR Dome Tour 2023 Seoul Special (UNVEIL 13)“，展现了耀眼的成长势头。

2023年7月，作为首位K-POP艺人参加巴黎Lollapalooza音乐节的Stray Kids，让6万多名观众为之疯狂，照亮了法国巴黎的夜空。9月，首次出演在美国新泽西保诚中心举行的"2023 MTV MV Music Awards",凭借最新专辑《★★★★★(5-STAR)》的主打曲《S-Class》获得了"Best K-POP"的获奖荣誉。之后由方灿、彰彬、HAN组成的组合内的制作小分队3RACHA又参加了在纽约中央公园举行的"2023 GLOBAL CITIZEN音乐节”展现了特级表演，吸引大批当地观众。 像这样在全球舞台上展现华丽表现得"K-POP大势"Stray Kids此次发表全新迷你专辑，向着更高的顶峰进发。

《樂-STAR》是继第三张正规专辑发行后，时隔5个月推出的全新专辑，与前作《★★★★★(5-STAR)》有着密切联系。包含"懂得享受的特别之人"含义的同时，也表达了组合想要成为风靡一时的摇滚明星的雄心壮志。特别是从“在任何情况下，我们的Rock（樂）都会持续下去”的歌词中，充分可以感受到Stray Kids想要打造出能够与全世界所有听众共同享受此次音乐作品的强烈自信感。

Stray Kids邀请全球懂得享受的K-POP听众参加此次庆典，在《樂-STAR》的track list中也可以再次看到他们对于自身所打造出的作品的自负心。 此次专辑以主打曲《樂（LALALALA）》为首，共收录了《MEGAVERSE》、《BLIND SPOT》、《COMFLEX》、《Cover Me》、《Leave》、以及日本首张EP专辑主打曲《Social Path(Feat.LiSA)》韩语版本和《樂（LALALALA）(Rock Ver)》等共8首歌曲。通过亲自制作的音乐连续三次获得"Billboard 200"一位的他们,在全新迷你专辑Credit中又贴上了自己的名字，预示着又一部高质量作品的诞生，给粉丝们送来了音乐上的"极乐享受"。

从2018年3月的正式出道曲《District9》到此次回归主打曲《樂（LALALALA）》，制作了出道以来发行的所有专辑主打曲的3RACHA将通过此次专辑进一步为"Stray Kids"这一独一无二的音乐类型增添力量。 除此之外，成员铉辰以及曾担任过Travis Scott、Drake等众多海外著名嘻哈艺人唱片的德国Hip-Hop音乐制作团队Cubeatz的Kevin Gomringer和Tim Gomringer以及VERSACHOI、Millionboy、JUN2等国内外优秀作家的合作也提高了整个作品的完成度。

主打曲《LALALALA》通过独特感觉的旋律，给听众带来全新的感受。 "Welcome to 极乐（Rock） 晴天霹雳(Rock) 这都市的Rock(樂) 享受就可以了(樂) 熬过苦难（Rock）困境的夜晚（Rock）就会迎来最终的(樂)等巧妙运用的歌词一语双关，传达出新鲜感。另外，副歌部分反复的音效声中也添加了摇滚要素，可以尽情享受Stray Kids音乐所独有的强烈中毒性和刺激感。

2023年10月初公开的prologue视频，正式拉开了此次回归序幕。借助即将表演时一个孩子的梦境和视角，新专辑将"喜怒哀乐"以紧凑的故事线展开作为开端，引发粉丝们的好奇心，以悲壮氛围的旁白、华丽的特效、成员们多造型的视觉盛宴，真正意义上提升了对"乐"的感受。

通过印有特别标签的全新迷你专辑《樂-STAR》和主打曲《樂（LALALALA）》,Stray Kids将在2023年再次向全世界音乐市场传达新鲜感，引领大势前行。

1. MEGAVERSE

[Stray Kids' Comment]
迷你专辑《樂-STAR》的第一首track《MEGAVERSE》以简洁的节奏和强烈的base sound为基础，既又节制又充满凝聚能量。通过这首歌大家在感受Stray Kids牌特有的强烈歌词所编织成的"Mega级Verse"的同时又可以体会到属于我们"多彩又独一无二的世界观"。请尽情享受用节奏转换和左右席卷而来的声音所完成的"MEGAVERSE"吧！

2. 락 (樂) *TITLE

[Stray Kids' Comment]

主打曲《樂（LALALALA）》是一首以Phonk sound和Afrobeats类型节奏为基础，以distotion base展开的旋律为主调的歌曲，给人独特感的同时提升了听众的兴趣。利用"樂（Rock）"这个字，多种文字含义的歌词表现形式增添趣味感，副歌部分通过反复的"Lalalala"和摇滚要素，展现出中毒性和强烈感。想要制作出像歌曲名一样可以一起享受氛围的音乐，唱出了"在任何苦恼或逆境的情况下,我们的樂都会持续下去"的觉悟。

3. 사각지대

[Stray Kids' Comment]
为了能够完美发光，将无人知晓，独自磨练的秘密空间表现为"死角地带"。能够感受到速度感的节奏和充满力量的vocal提升了整首歌曲的能量。歌词中包含着 "相信自己所走过的路，虽然未来还未确定，但堂堂正正向前的样子异常美丽，这样的我们就是胜者"的深刻意义，希望听到这首歌的人们能够从中感受到勇气和希望。

4. COMFLEX

[Stray Kids' Comment]
《COMFLEX》通过巧妙的Top Line和充满中毒性的电音，展现了属于我们的从容和霸气。 将COMPLEX和FLEX两个单词合二为一的歌名"COMFLEX"和表现"自身瑕疵魅力"的歌词中，可以感受到"我们不会隐藏弱点，而是将它打磨出光芒变成强项"的抱负。

5. 가려줘

[Stray Kids' Comment]

这是一首将漫漫长夜，希望某个人可以来遮住这让人无法入睡的明朗月光的心情全部倾诉在歌词中的温暖又充满感性的歌曲。“月光如此耀眼的夜晚，谁可以来遮住那刺眼的光亮，逐渐走向尽头的长夜，在新的光亮升起时请接受它吧”。以感性的acoustic旋律开始，到后半部分逐渐激昂的感情全部用沉重的电吉他音进行了诠释。

6. Leave

[Stray Kids' Comment]

这首歌讲述了在给予互相更多伤害之前结束这场爱恋，忍痛送走对方的故事。"为了彼此而上演的结局"等哀切深情的歌词和反复的吉他声表现出了凄凉的氛围感，让人联想到树叶飘落的秋天。

7. Social Path (Feat. LiSA) (Korean Ver.)

[Stray Kids' Comment]
这是与日本著名歌手LiSA的第一首合作歌曲,也是包含"开拓道路"意义的Social Path韩语版，表现了"为了未来,一直把青春押注在音乐上"的主题。是一首以Drum&Bass类型为基础，同时具备Rock Sound和充满力量的vocal魅力的歌曲。

8. 락 (樂) (Rock Ver.)

[Stray Kids' Comment]
将主打曲《樂》以金属体裁全新诠释的版本，与原歌名相符的强烈乐队Sound和成员们压倒性的能量与歌曲本身完美契合，将属于Stray Kids的魅力极大化。
