God’s Menu
"Looking like a chef, I'm a 5-star Michelin," never gets old! Composed by the talented 3RACHA (Bang Chan, Han, Changbin), God's Menu is an addictive song with a catchy hook sure to get anyone singing along and stomping to the beat.
MANIAC
Imagine the sound of chirping birds and a drilling machine together in one song. Unusual as it is, Stray Kids make sense of it with "MANIAC"'s upbeat tempo and aggressive choreography.
Thunderous
Hip hop injected with traditional Korean instruments, "Thunderous" stays unique without compromising Stray Kids' artistry and sound.
Back Door
Aligning with other powerful songs like "God's Menu" and "Thunderous," "Back Door" is composed of exciting thumping sounds matched with intense shouty vocals.
CASE 143
Stray Kids' viral song "CASE 143" playfully talks about love. The whole track is satisfying with little catchy tunes scattered here and there, you’ll want to play it over and over again.
Red Lights (Bang Chan, Hyunjin)
A sensual R&B as opposed to the usual unapologetically noisy hip hop tracks they produce, "Red Lights" bring out the group's versatility in music.
Charmer
No one can deny the sexy, hypnotizing vibe "Charmer" brings to the table. Especially with flute playing in the background, the sound intends to catch listeners' attention and get them hooked.
VENOM
The uniqueness in "VENOM"'s hauntingly beautiful instrumentation makes it a song hard to miss and even harder to forget.
TASTE (Lee Know, Hyunjin, Felix)
"TASTE" talks of love one can't resist despite risks and unfair treatment. In this sensual number, the trio proves how broad Stray Kids' musicality is.
THE SOUND
The lead single from the group's first Japanese full-length album which takes the same name, is a step back from hip hop and plays around electronic rock. The Korean version of "THE SOUND" is part of 5 STAR's tracklist.
