They’re back, and that sound is bigger than ever. ATEEZ have released their 13th EP, GOLDEN HOUR: Part.4. This segment of the group's chapter comes off the chart success of ‘GOLDEN HOUR: Part. 3. The new EP contains five tracks: "Ghost," "NASA," "On The Road," "CHOOSE" and the title track, "Adrenaline." Let’s start with the title track, as the choreography alone is no joke, a 100mph chorus that features steps that will leave fellow idols at music bank shows hiding in dressing rooms. ATEEZ's strength lies in the magic of their moves. They transfer just as well – if not better – onstage, showing what kind of powerhouse group they’ve evolved into over the years. 

There’s no denying that their sound on the last album was summer-filled and a lot lighter than past albums. With “Lemon Drop”, a stark contrast to 2025’s “In Your Fantasy” But what's the point of being an artist if they don’t play with sound and image?




But they’re back on top form with part four, gritty, impactful and again with the shorter EPs, you are left wanting more. Thanks in part to the sheer speed and veracity of the rappers in contrast to the fluidity of the vocalists. 

2025 marked a defining chapter for ATEEZ, highlighted by major milestones on the global stage. The group earned their first Billboard Hot 100 entries with “Lemon Drop” (No. 69) and “In Your Fantasy” (No. 68), alongside their fifth No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart with ‘GOLDEN HOUR : Part. 3.’ The year also saw ATEEZ recognised as K-pop Artist of the Year at the 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards and nominated for Favourite K-pop Artist at the American Music Awards, affirming their place in the international music landscape.

A group that has always had a determined narrative throughout their albums, from reflections of youth to complex narratives and a collision of emotions. The EP marks an exciting new turning point in the group's seven-year-long career as their first official project post contract renewal.

 

As ATEEZ continues to prove their status as a global top artist, K-pop fans around the world are eagerly anticipating what they have in store for this year. ATEEZ offers their fans the power to pierce through the chaos of these uncertain times with “Adrenaline”—a party anthem for those who refuse to succumb to apathy.
