How can I describe EXO's music? Well, it's very powerful, for one thing. To be honest, I'm not good at classifying music into genres, so let's just call this pop/rock with heavy metal and electronic influences to make up for my lack of knowledge. However; I can distinguish what kind of style and what kind of vibe they give off. Does Star Trek come to mind? The whole entire time I was watching MAMA, star trek star trek star trek Vulcan, live long and prosper, star trek and star trek kept going through my mind. (I kinda like Star Trek by the way) We can definitely say that EXO is out of this world what with their vibrating, metallic pants - which were very baggy might I add - their glass mosaic pantaloons, and their aluminum foil jackets. By doing this, they're really trying to play up the whole alien/supernatural concept, which helps me segue onto the topic of their awesome magical powers! I love how each member has their own super powers. The special effects were quality stuff! Also, from what songs I've heard, it tells me that EXO is experimenting a lot of different styles of music; (dub step, of course, is included) which I think is pretty interesting. Their music as a whole definitely has a unique sound, I guess you could say it's exotic, but mostly what I love is that each song translate well and sounds good in Chinese and vice versa. Most songs usually sound really off when their translated into another language, but all the songs sound good. I have to say that I sometimes I have trouble deciding which version I'd rather listen too!Not to mention, I love their voices. So far, I think Chen, Lu Han, D.O. and Baekhyun have got the best voices as well as wide vocal ranges. That, I think, is one of the elements that make their music unique in addition to the main rappers, Kris, who is a rhythmic rapper, and Chanyeol, who is a faster rapper, according to an interview I saw. Despite their main roles in the group, almost all of the members are well-rounded in at least dancing, rapping, and singing. And even though they only have 6 songs on their album, their teasers hint at other songs, which I am really excited for, (i.e. Black Pearl, Beautiful and My Lady!) but I keep hearing that these songs will be in the repackage album. (Crossing fingers!)

| Does lightning bending count as a talent? lol |
EXO members are really versatile and multitalented.Even though this is nothing new because all K-pop idols are talented in some way or another, I still find it hard to believe that one person can be good at so many things. Kai knows ballet, jazz, popping, and that's just naming a few. Chen and Baekhyun both have amazing singing skills; their voices can hit really high notes! Tao and Xiumin know martial arts. LuHan is just so smart; have you seen him solve a Rubix cube?! Nearly half of them are bilingual or trilingual in Kris' case. SM, where do you find such amazing people? What I love about SMTown is that they always pick people with distinctive characters, I mean that's one of the reasons why I love Super Junior! For this same reason, I like how each EXO member has a unique personality, especially Tao. Since they just debuted, they're still shy and awkward, especially in interviews, so we still have yet to see what they're really like, but I find that to be the fun part!
