[edit]

The group was formed, as the result of the survival program called No.Mercy, which was launched by Starship Entertainment and Mnet in December 2014.[13] Through the course of ten episodes, twelve trainees (thirteen after I.M joined the competition on episode 8) competed against each other through various performances and were ranked from one to twelve, with one being the best and twelve being the worst. They also have to wear a nametag with their ranking, which changed following the challenges and performances set by the judges. For the show, the participants worked directly with artists from Starship Entertainment, including Hyolyn, K.Will, Mad Clown, and Soyou, as well as other artists, such as Rhymer, San E, Giriboy, and Genius Nochang. These artists also served as judges for ranking the contestants.[14][15] For its concluding mission, the nine remaining members formed into three groups of three to compete and the members of Monsta X were selected from these nine in the final episode as the seven members of the group: Shownu, Wonho, Minhyuk, Kihyun, Hyungwon, Jooheon, and I.M.[16]

No.Mercy also led to the 2014 spin-off web series Deokspatch, which also began airing in December, which was meant to showcase a more casual and lighthearted side to the competition in order for people to get to know the trainees better. It also continued as Deokspatch X on May 14, 2015, and as Deokspatch X² on October 2, 2015. These seasons focused on the newly formed Monsta X participating in variety show activities.[17][18]

Artistry

[edit]

Musical style and influences

[edit]

Monsta X's musical style is often described as intense or aggressive, combining the elements of hip hop, EDM, and pop.[1][9] Philip Merrill of the Grammys described their sound as distinct in the K-pop scene as they are "adding their Korean eclectic backgrounds to a meld between American rap, rock, and pop", and that they "bring a throbbing rhythmic bounce, lyrics hard enough to slide in raps at will, melodies pop enough to hold you, all with a rock edge as the greater context".[162] The group's aggressive musical style with "tracks centered around loud, clattering, electronic instrumentals, vicious rap verses, and striking vocals" had been influential across the fourth generation of K-pop.[10]

While the group is known for their intense musical style, their albums are also described as "a mix between intense songs and softer ballads".[9] Michael Cerio of Radio.com described their EP Follow: Find You as "a balance of ballads and bangers".[163] Tamar Herman of Billboard described their first English-language studio album All About Luv as "a divergence from their boisterous dance-oriented album they typically release in the South Korean music market", focusing on "an overwhelming sense of sentimentality and smoothness",[164] and that the album proves "K-pop transcends language barriers".[165]

Early in their career, Monsta X cited Big Bang as the artist that influences and inspires them.[166][167][168] The group also cited various international artists as their musical influences including Michael Jackson,[168][169] Chris Brown,[168] and Bruno Mars.[169]

Concept and lyrical themes

[edit]

Monsta X has showcased various concepts throughout their career, starting from their LGBT-themed concept for The Clan series. Their third EP The Clan Pt. 1 Lost, representing the letter L in LGBT, depicts the loss and pain of youth. Their fourth EP The Clan Pt. 2 Guilty, representing the letter G, depicts the group protecting their innocence against the world that has caused them loss and pain. Their first studio album The Clan Pt. 2.5: The Final Chapter and its title track "Beautiful", representing the letter B, portrays youth's rebellion. The series completes a trilogy, which represent the letter T, forming a complete story about youth growth.[170]

The group has also explored the seven deadly sins concept through the release of their second studio album Take.1 Are You There?, which was conceptualized as a battle of "light and dark", "good and evil", "life and death", and the search for salvation.[171] The concept was continued through the release of Take.2 We Are Here, with the theme of finding hope in the midst of loss and wandering, while finding salvation in the process.[172]

To show the many sides of love, Monsta X released their first english-language studio album All About Luv, which explores the elements of relationships, dealing with breakups and deceit.[165] The group also explored a villain-inspired concept with the release of their third studio album Fatal Love, which referenced different well-known characters from movies such as Kingsman, American Psycho, The Silence of the Lambs, Fight Club, Joker, and Drive. The album experimented with the concept of temptation and exploring the darker side of romance, showing it as both cruel and beautiful.[173][174] They also released their second english-language album The Dreaming, which explores the deep meaning of love, lust, loss, and heartbreak.[120]

The group's lyrics are noted for addressing the themes of love and empowerment.[164][175]

Stage and aesthetics

[edit]

Monsta X was known for breaking gender norms before it was a trend.[11] Taylor Glasby of GQ stated that their "smokey eye make-up, embellished jackets, chokers, and leather trousers, with bondage-style leather harnesses under double-breasted suits", made it "sensual, provocative, and divisive but Monsta X have developed a proud ownership of this duality".[176] The group's stylists, most notably Kim A Yeon and Kim Minseo have received praise for styling many of their "heavy-hitting looks."[177] Natalie Morin described the group's fashion for Refinery29 as "usually some mixture of blacks, golds, and reds, faux leather, and dramatic, smokey makeup, with an aura around them that mere mortals dare not disturb", accenting that the group "fit closely in many ways to what Koreans would describe as the "beast" idol aesthetic – dark, edgy, traditionally "masculine" presenting – as opposed to the softer, cute "flower boy" aesthetic found among many male K-pop groups".[178]

The group was also commended for using traditional Korean inspired elements during their performances, including hanbok-inspired outfits and the use of the taepyeongso.[179][180] Their modernized take on the men's hanbok, "in black and gold prints flowing past their waists like a cape, with fitted pants of mostly gold designs, and the use of the Korean drums, was also highlighted".[181] Kim Ri-eul, a hanbok designer who created hanbok fashion for Monsta X, expressed their hope that "the beauty of traditional hanbok will become more widely known through the Korean wave".[182]
