HYUKOH and Taipei’s Sunset Rollercoaster have joined forces for the collaborative album AAA, which will be dropping via DOOROODOOROO ARTIST COMPANY and Sunset Music Productions Co. Ltd. To introduce the sound of the new album, HYUKOH and Sunset Rollercoaster share the single “Young Man,” which is a song speaking to the anxieties of the future weaved with an optimistic melody. On the song, each of the ten members of the Asian supergroup blend together seamlessly. Paired with the new song is the Pennacky-directed video which features each member of both HYUKOH and Sunset Rollercoaster along with each bands’ frequent collaborator and producer JNKYRD.

A casual chat in 2020 seemingly foretold the collaboration between HYUKOH and Sunset Rollercoaster. The conversation led to musical collaborations including Sunset Rollercoaster’s remake version of the HYUKOH track “Help” from their album through love and HYUKOH vocalist OHHYUK’s feature on the Sunset Rollercoaster track “Candlelight” from their album Soft Storm. When Sunset Rollercoaster visited Seoul for a headline show in March 2023, the audience spotted HYUKOH members at the show, which took the anticipation of a collaboration of the two bands to another level. After they discovered their chemistry in the studio, the two bands decided to create a full-length project together, the result being AAA.

The eight tracks of AAA were recorded over the course of a year during monthly meetings in various studios across South Korea including in the lush Gapyeong, buzzing Seoul and tranquil Jeju Island. HYUKOH and Sunset Rollercoaster considered themselves to be a “troupe of music wanderers” as they traversed South Korea together for inspiration and connection. With their collected experiences, they would return to the studio to jam together where those improvisations and demo ideas from various of the bands’ members would morph into full songs.
