[OSENWORLD] Xdinary Heroes are turning up the volume ahead of their highly anticipated comeback.
The rock band under JYP Entertainment will return on October 24 with their 7th mini album “LXVE to DEATH” and title track “ICU.” Building anticipation, the group has rolled out a series of teasers — including mood films, concept photos, and an instrumental preview of the title track — showcasing their signature full-band energy and creative flair.
On October 15 at noon (KST), Xdinary Heroes dropped an instrumental live sampler via their official social channels, featuring live snippets of all tracks from the upcoming album. In the video, drummer Gunil, keyboardists Jungsu and O.de, guitarists Gaon and Jun Han, and bassist Jooyeon perform parts of each track — “Lost and Found,” “FiRE (My Sweet Misery),” “Ashes to Ashes,” “Spoiler!!!,” “Love Tug of War,” and “LOVE ME 2 DEATH.”
From the mounting tension of dynamic riffs to the raw impact of their climactic jam session on “ICU,” the video captures the band’s explosive synergy and emotional depth. The closing shot — showing the six members lying together, with Jun Han appearing first under an oxygen mask — sparked curiosity among fans, hinting at a dramatic narrative behind the album’s dark concept.
Known for blending genres and pushing the boundaries of rock within K-pop, Xdinary Heroes have continued to expand their musical spectrum with each release. With “LXVE to DEATH,” they aim to channel both their intensity and introspection, delivering a record that embodies the essence of the band’s “beautiful chaos.”
The self-written album will drop on October 24 at 1 p.m. (KST). Following its release, Xdinary Heroes will hold a three-night “Beautiful Mind” World Tour finale from November 21–23 at Jamsil Indoor Stadium in Seoul — marking the band’s first-ever solo shows at the iconic venue.
