Official AlphaBAT Thread

[Entropy]

I wonder if the new group is going to be anything like this.

[Entropy]

Serin is mine all of u should back off thanks

 

He's all yours hun.

 

Well that`s AlphaBAT...they are reinvented into a 9 member group 

The old members aren't in the new group?

[Entropy]

Alphabat was a duo but they had problems with their company so they left and joined SimTong (GI & Tritops' company). Serin is an original member, but Kyumin left and 8 others became Alphabat members, reinventing this group as 9

Awww too bad both of them couldn't be in the group

I didn't know they are really supposed to be going by those names. I just thought it was there for dramatic effect lol

I always have a hard time picking biases so I'll wait until I learn more about the members,

but based on first impression I'm liking Sanha, Sanghoon, and Hayong

[Entropy]

 

 

lol AB City (ABCD). Alphabet's puns..

It took me so long to notice all of the puns.

[Entropy]

Alphabet's song is sooooo good guys, the dance as well

I'm really liking Hayong, he is brimming with talent.

Can't wait for their debut.

Somehow I find this video unexplainably disturbing

Hayong and Serin are the only ones who don't look awkward.

[MV] AlphaBAT- AB CITY

Edited November 15, 2013 by Entropy

[Entropy]

A group of young guys thrusting their crotches and shaking it up.

I see nothing awkward about that. 

well...there's that one in the white that needs to tell his arms to chill.

 

Haha its not the thrusting so much as the thrusting being synchronized

and the two tallest on the ends look dorky and uncoordinated

I really like this group. I think J:eta is my bias but I'm not sure yet.

And I love all the alphabet puns!

Welcome to the thread.

Yeah the puns are kinda clever actually

I'm Hayong biased but I also love D:elta's voice.

What did you guys think about the MV?
 A lot of people seem unsatisfied with it but I'm not sure what they were expecting .

Thanks!!

Which one is that? Lol, I only know their stage names. I love D:elta's voice too.

Yeah Hayong is B:eta.
And I knew J:eta was going to be a favorite the moment I saw him.
D:elta's voice reminds me of someone but I won't say it here
 
 
I'm just going to leave this here, because I think this is an odd performance (but the adlibs and rap are better than the original)

The move that Hayong does @2:56 cracks me up

[Entropy]

 

It's not like I was expecting much from the MV besides eye candy so I was 100% okay with it.

Thanks Sarah

Jeta is so good looking

Beta is a strange character

Delta's voice sounds amazing

Too bad C:ode and G:amma didn't get much camera time.

[Entropy]

 

Oh ok.

I wasn't expecting much honestly. I didn't see anything wrong with the MV.

I'am actually super undecided between F:ie, I:ota, J:eta, and G:amma.
Who is it? Cause I think we may be thinking of the same person lol.


Omg I can't with F:ie doing aegyo. He looks like he should be this badass rapper, but he's really cute offstage lol.

People think that all hip-hop is energetic and fast. AB CIty has more of a cool feel.

I won't say who it is because then people are going be like "Bish, that nugu doesn't sound anything like oppa :hoplz:"

I have no problem admitting that kpop fans scare me.

But you can say who you think it is if you want, I may or may not confirm if thats who I had in mind

 

lord, the leader is freaking 87' liner. legit oppa !! i thought i wouldn't never find a rookie older than me, then alpabat comes legal legal legal

Welcome to the thread

Yeah and they got an 88' liner too.

Haha "legit oppa". Soooo true!

It can be annoying when a new group debuts, they look old, and then you find out they're 92-95ers

Edited November 19, 2013 by Entropy

[Entropy]

Yea it defiantly does.

 

Omg no they do me to. But I was thinking it was someone from EXO.

The person I had in mind sounds like that person from EXO too, but on second thought Delta does sound more the EXO person who will remain unnamed.

 

But they look younger .. i thought they were jailbaits like team b. then baaam... lord all members are legal. i cant stand rookies because they tend to be younger than me -_- had no idea a 87 liner could debut lol he's chingu with jay park.

Legit oppas♥

 

Lord, the eyeliner though -_- fire their makeup artists.

I don't mind the eyeliner. Its the painted nails that kill me.

In certain images they look really young.

But I can see Beta's age, he has laugh lines. He debuted in 2011 in a group called HITT, but left the group due to back problems. He'll have to serve his 2 years soon...like really soon, unless he still has issues with his back. That's the problem with legit oppas. They have the best bodies though

What I would love to see is a group consisting of members who have already served in the military, with the maknae being like a 89er or 90er

 

AlphaBAT Showcase Interview.

omg F:ie, omg omg omg. F:ie is my bias. No questions asked. 10:53 

 

I'm glad he actually has a personality instead of being this "I'm a hardcore BA rapper" and being very stoic. 

Haha, he is so unlike a typical rapper. He likes skinship the most, and lets not mention his aegyo.

Also many rappers are known for being the weakest dancers of the group but he's actually the one that creates the choreography.

[Entropy]

[Entropy]

OOOOOH, I think I know who you're talking about

 

YES!! The nail art NEEDS to go away and never come back!

 

Is B:eta the oldest? I'm still super beyond newbie to this group. I still have a rough time telling B:eta and G:amma apart. Aw what happened to his back? When they said C:ode had been in the military and I was rather shocked, you don't normally hear about a new group with a member who's already been in the military.

 

Yes he is and that's why I love him! Not to bash my other bias, but E.Den from LC9 (my dp), he's defiantly the weakest dancer. But my bias' are usually dancers. (I'm a dancer) So I love him already.

Yes B:eta is the oldest. He's the 87 liner.

G:amma is the tallest in the group (6'0" or 6'1"), much taller than B:eta who is the 3rd shortest (he's only 5'8"). That's the easiest way to tell them apart imo.

All I know is that he had to leave HITT because it required a lot of medical attention, but looking at him now he seems just as hyper as ever.

I'm shocked that out of all of the members C:ode is the one who has been in the military. 5zic, the guy in my dp was in the military before debut too. I think its better that way, that way they can just focus on training and don't worry about their position in the group when they're gone for 2 years.

 

F:ie's voice shocks me every time. You wouldn't think he would sound like that just by looking at him.

My bias is usually leader or main vocal for guy groups.

[Entropy]

 

 

 

 

 

Something's been bothering me.

Why didn't they give H:eta any lines? I mean, he's probably the 3rd or 4th best vocal in the group but he got nothing

I think they should just give him one of J:eta "AB City EFG" lines or Iota's "Lets move it higher" line.

They don't even let him have the chance to dance in the center.

Oh I see. Lol yea that'll make it easier. Oh wow, I hope it healed fine (which it seems it did.) Oh wow! He's almost as old as Yunho from TVXQ! Yea he'll have to go to the military really soon, that sucks since he just redebuted. Yea I would expect I:iota or someone else, but when I first saw the group I thought C:ode would be the visual and he's not. Oh what group is he from? I agree, it defiantly seems like a better plan then wait it out and go when you're at like, your groups peak like some guys do.

I know! It's so deep and he almost sounds like he has a slight lisp. I usually just base my bias on personality, but I'm usually drawn to the dancers.

Yeah I would have expected someone less like a flower boy, but I guess it doesn't matter because they will all have to serve military time anyway.

Yeah B:eta's old, but good thing he didn't let it discourage him from debuting again.

C:ode did mention that he was the Visual in the allkpop interview, but I thought J:eta was. Maybe there's two visuals or maybe since J:eta is the maknae they didn't want to give him two titles.

 

5zic is from the hip hop group MIB from TIger Jk's company.

 

I didn't notice it at first but I think you're right. I think he does have a lisp.

Edited November 22, 2013 by Entropy

[Entropy]

i noticed that too. he was one of the main singers in their Love in the ice cover, so it's quite strange that he was given no line in AB City

And their Nothing's Over cover.

It is very strange but he doesn't seem too bothered by it lol

 

It bothers me to! He can obviously sing, but why didn't they give him any lines? Like, as much as I enjoy C:ode's voice, they could have cut his part in half and gave one half to C:ode and one to H:eta.

 

I know, it's weird thinking about the guys who are super flower boys like Gongchan from B1A4 or Jun from LC9 going into the military.

 

Yea I'm really glad he didn't decide to give up because of his age.

 

Oh did he? I watched that but I don't remember that part. Possibly. IMO C:ode fits the visual role more then J:eta.

 

Oh ok!

 

I actiay didn't notice it until I read it in tumblr and thought, yea he really does.

Yeah giving him part of Code's lines would work too.  Maybe they will do that if fans complain enough.

 

I just figured J:eta was the Visual because he's a model.

J:eta has seduced me, but I must resist because he's so damn young.

Edited November 22, 2013 by Entropy

[Entropy]

I guess maybe cause there's 9 members they didn't know how to distribute the lines properly? But, if SNSD can do it, I think the could have made it work.

I don't want them to think we're complainers though, but I do hope they fix that.

Yea him being a model seems like it would concrete him as the visual.
Lol! Are you a lot older then him?

Yes waaaaaaay older than J:eta. Only Code and Beta are older than me

 

 

C:ode's engliiiiisssshh!!

Haha, Code's Engrish is cute.

Beta thinks he is soooooo good at English.

[Entropy]

Fie forgot the lyrics in that Show Champion performance btw

Lol @ Heta just happily performing in the back with no lines. When the camera does catch him for like a fraction of a second he does look lively.

Lol! I still don't have their ages memorized (there's so many!) but I'm only 20 I'd fit right in lol.

OMG it is!! He really REALLY does and it's adorable cause it's so bad lol!!

I also am slightly freaking out cause during the Arirang interview, B:eta defiantly started singing Hot Summer by f(x) who's my ultimate bias group!! AHHHHHH slight bias interaction!

Haha lucky you! But it doesn't matter because my bias is strictly Beta anyway even with Jeta's seduction powers.

The thing is Code and the others don't try to speak more English than they are capable of but Beta is in denial about his Engrish. He was like that back in the HITT days too.

Oh so he was singing Hot Summer? I thought it sounded like it.

I wonder what its like for them to have a leader that talkative and hyper

[Entropy]

Where? I didn't notice it.

 

I know! I makes me think either he doesn't care, or maybe he's just not letting it get to him.

 

Haha thanks! Lol! Go you! Not giving in to the almost jailbait maknaes!

 

Forreal! C:ode's engrish is cute, but B:eta genuinely tries to speak it and use it as often as possible. Did you follow HITT?

 

Idk, from that Arirang interview they all seem overly hyper lol. Isak could barely control them!

He messes up  around 0:32

 

Maknae's of any kind just don't do it for me, even the ones closer to my age...but Jeta is beautiful

I wouldn't say I followed them but I remember them back when they first debuted and lets just say Hayong wasn't my favorite from HITT.

 

Yeah they all seem pretty hyper. Personally, I blame Hayong. I think he's rubbed off on them.

[Entropy]

^Why does C:ode look nervous/lost/bewildered here? Or is that just how he always looks.

Well his hair looks nice at least (I don't like that mini ponytail that he often sports)

I just want to stay as Alphas OTL

I know right. They should just go with Alphas, but watch they go with something random lmao
Watch it's gonna be like Robin or Gotham CD or something...or worse

[Entropy]

 

 

Okay....so there were some rough patches.

 

'Loving You' is a bit out of their range.

B:eta has a hard time singing in the pocket. It's like he's anticipating the next part too early instead of focusing on what he's singing.

D:elta was great though. My only complaint with him is that his falsetto can be jarring. He needs to go into his head voice and not so much falsetto.

Iota's rap was superb.

 

I prefered the Love In the Ice cover

I love I:ota's rap here too. Its very passionate and I love how it builds. I love his finger. Its like Drake Hand. Iota Finger.

Hayong from 7:48-8:07 and 8:20-8:34 were really good. He and D:elta harmonized well.

However, I'm really impressed by H:eta. His voice is really stable. There's no reason for him to not have a part in AB City.

E:psilon as well. I laughed @6:45 when Epsilon side eyed whoever it was that messed the harmony. Omg they looked so pissed after that lol. I think it was C:ode because F:ie looked pissed and H:eta was side eyeing someone to the left of him. I also saw C:ode laugh micheiviously @5:49 lol.
