    Background

    Donghae and Eunhyuk were released.[4] In August 2020, the jacket film of the album was released on YouTube.[5] On August 25, individual teaser photos of Donghae were released, along with the news that the album will come in three variants: "Cold Blood", "Hot Blood", and "Balance."[6] On August 26, individual teaser photos of Eunhyuk were released with SM Entertainment claiming that Eunhyuk was involved in writing one of the tracks in the upcoming album.[7]

    On September 3, the album was officially released with the re-released special edition of the Bad Blood album, called Bad Liar was released on September 28 with 2 additional tracks: "No Love" and "What Is Your Name?" the latter track featured their bandmate Shindong.[8]

    Composition

    The album is influenced by hip hop and dance music.

    "B.A.D" is described as an electronic hip-hop genre and lyrically expresses the appearance of a beautiful opponent through the word 'BAD", the track was penned by Donghae.[9]

    The

    rock ballad, "To you, Tomorrow" has an electric guitar that amps up the song's vigor and a string melody that doubles the melancholy mood of the piano. The song's lyrics express a man's sadness at realizing how valuable the relationship was to him following their breakup. It was written by member Eunhyuk.[10]

    As one of the two new songs from the re-released album, "No Love" is classified into electronic dance music that has swing snares and flowy synths that blend in with different databases.[11] Meanwhile, "What Is Your Name?" is a R&B song featuring their bandmate Shindong, with its lyrics describing sweetness and could be considered as a love song for the group's fanbase, "E.L.F. (Ever lasting friends)." Previously, they have performed the song together during Super Show 8: Infinite Time.[12]
