“Blue Valentine” — A New Chapter in the NMIXX Universe
The 12-track album marks the beginning of a new era for NMIXX, following their ambitious Fe₃O₄ series. “Blue Valentine” dives deep into the emotional complexities of love, loss, and rediscovery. These themes reflects both the group’s personal growth and artistic transformation.
