EXO Is Back... 'Wolf' MV

After about 13 months since the release of their last single "MAMA", EXO is back with "Wolf", the first single from the upcoming album "XOXO". SM uploaded two teaser videos for this song before finally posting the MV for both K and M sub sections of EXO. There was alot of build-up and hype surrounding this group when SM first introduced them, and for the most part I think these guys did a good job of living up to the expectations. I wish their live stages had more live singing but it IS understandable, since the choreography for their songs tends to be really physical.
'Wolf' is no different. The two versions of the video very similar but the vocal arrangement and placement of the group members is different.

EXO-K

EXO-M

At first I wasn't blown away by the song, I was thinking  "it's catchy but not my favorite from EXO, but the choreography is pretty cool. I love the tree!" Then I went in search of the lyrics, and my feelings grew, exponentially, for the song. I love the concept of a guy fighting his inner beast so that he can get and keep the girl. They way that their almost having a conversation throughout the song about what decision to make, whether to make the girl into a meal for the full moon (heavy bass/industrial and rough voices) or hold back for love (light piano melody and soulful riffs). The song is definitely growing on me.
I have so say that this surprised me, most times songs that I like musically work out lyrically, while the ones that I don't favor tend to be weak lyrically. It's nice to have a song surprise me in a good way. I want to say job well done to the writer of this song. If anyone has the information about who it is, I would love to know :)

Fortunately the guys have even done a live stage on M Countdown, so we can see them again right away.
