Wonder Girls Make a Psychedelic Reggae-Rock Comeback With 'Why So Lonely': Watch (1)
Last year Wonder Girls refreshed their throwback-inspired concept, transforming from a '50s Motown sound to a '80s synth-pop band, and for their latest comeback, they've ended up somewhere in the middle. Watch "Why So Lonely" above where Yenny, Yubin, Sunmi and Lim embrace a '70s-inspired rock band look and feel.
Written and produced by the members, "Why So Lonely" has a reggae-rock sound that's perfect for summer and right on trend as the likes of Fifth Harmony, Drake and Meghan Trainor continue to incorporate island sounds in their pop soundscape. But the surging guitar riffs mixed with Wailers- and Sublime-like ska beats give the track a classic-rock vibe that the ladies successfully pull off as they detail wanting a deep love rather than their current one that makes them feel "so lonely."
