"A tight unit with a riotous party spirit, K-pop collective are bringing their culture to the masses: Balming Tiger are a many-headed beast. Formed in 2018, this 11-strong K-pop collective boasts a rotating cast of rappers, vocalists, writers, producers and cinematographers ... [Their] debut album, 'January Never Dies', is a collection of blissfully tongue-in-cheek songs that examine day-to-day life in Seoul, harnessing the rough edges of heavy metal with a pop sheen and exuberantly rapped verses ... The group are a different proposition from their more polished K-pop peers, uninterested as they are in slick choreography and major record deals".
