Dreamcatcher 3rd MINI ALBUM [Alone In The City]"For those who want to escape all nightmares..."
Dreamcatcher's 'New Nightmare' Story 3rd Mini Album 'Alone In The City'
There are still some things that haven't been clearly explained. Why do I have nightmares? The steamy nightmare that invades the bedroom determines the mood of the day. The gloomy and heavy energy accumulated overnight is not easily shaken off no matter how hard you try.
Some say that the cause of these nightmares is stress. Home, entrance exam, job, work life… . There are countless causes of stress that plague modern people. And the stress, the seed of the nightmare, gradually sprouts, squeezes the mind, and grows in size.
Dreamcatcher draws a new worldview of nightmares through this album. Dreamcatcher, who escaped the antique era through the previous game 'Escape the ERA', now plans to face the 'nightmare' in modern times. They sing endlessly, sometimes as the nightmare itself, sometimes as a spokesperson for you suffering from nightmares.
However, this does not mean that it deviate from the narrative line that has been unfolded so far. From 'Nightmare' and 'Nightmare-Fall Asleep in the Mirror' to 'Prequel', which contains the answer to 'How did a girl become a nightmare', and 'Escape the ERA', which announced the completion of the first chapter of the nightmare story, Dreamcatcher's own fantasy. The story expands further without losing its power with 'Alone In The City'.
Hints to interpret Dreamcatcher's stories can be found in the music videos of each title song. The music video for the title song 'What' of this 'Alone In The City' also expresses the anxiety of youth in the real world, the illusion of recreating everything that bothers one in a nightmare, and the conflict between 'Seven Nightmares'. It further expands Catcher's story.
The stage also strongly appeals to Dreamcatcher's unique charm. It is a dance performance that melts the story of Dreamcatcher with the intensity of a metal rock sound that hits the heart, giving listeners a different kind of joy. The time has come for Dreamcatcher's unique color, which started out as unfamiliarity, to be clearly imprinted on the public.
Dreamcatcher has modified their previous work 'Escape the ERA' as "a comma, not a period of a nightmare". In this sense, the 3rd Mini Album 'Alone In The City' is a work that inherits the baton of the 'Nightmare' series, and is the second chapter of 'Nightmare' drawn by Dreamcatcher.
Now, it's time for Dreamcatcher's 'new nightmare' to open its eyes.

Dreamcatcher(드림캐쳐) 3rd MINI ALBUM [Alone In The City]"모든 악몽으로부터 벗어나고자 하는 이들에게…."
드림캐쳐가 펼쳐내는 '새로운 악몽' 이야기 3rd Mini Album 'Alone In The City'
아직 명확하게 설명되지 않는 것이 있다. 도대체 악몽은 왜 꾸는 걸까. 침실을 파고 든 찜찜한 악몽은 하루의 기분을 좌지우지한다. 밤사이 축적된 침울하고도 무거운 기운은 아무리 노력해도 쉽사리 떨쳐지지 않는다.
혹자들은 이러한 악몽의 이유를 스트레스에 기인한다고 말한다. 가정, 입시, 취업, 직장생활…. 현대인을 괴롭히는 스트레스의 원인은 셀 수 없이 많다. 그리고 그 악몽의 씨앗인 스트레스는 점차 싹을 틔우고, 마음을 비집고 덩치를 키우기도 한다.
드림캐쳐는 이번 앨범을 통해 새로운 악몽의 세계관을 그려낸다. 전작 'Escape the ERA'를 통해 Antique 시대를 탈출한 드림캐쳐는 이제 현대에서의 '악몽'과 직면할 계획. 이들은 때로는 악몽 그 자체가, 때로는 악몽에 시달리는 당신의 대변인이 되어 끝없이 노래한다.
그렇다고 해서 지금까지 펼쳐놓은 서사의 줄기를 벗어나는 것이 아니다. '악몽'과 '악몽-Fall asleep in the Mirror'부터 '소녀는 어떻게 악몽이 되었나'라는 해답을 담은 'Prequel', 악몽 스토리 첫 챕터의 완결을 알렸던 'Escape the ERA'까지 이어진 드림캐쳐만의 판타지 스토리는 'Alone In The City'로 그 힘을 잃지 않고 더욱 뻗어나간다.
드림캐쳐의 이러한 이야기들을 해석할 수 있는 힌트는 각 타이틀곡의 뮤직비디오에서 찾아볼 수 있다. 이번 'Alone In The City'의 타이틀곡 'What'의 뮤직비디오 역시 불안한 현실 세계의 청춘들, 그리고 자신을 괴롭히는 모든 것들이 악몽 속에서 재창조되는 환상, 그리고 '일곱 악몽' 사이의 갈등 등을 표현하며 드림캐쳐만의 이야기를 더욱 확장시킨다.
무대도 드림캐쳐만의 매력을 강하게 어필한다. 심장을 두드리는 메탈록 사운드의 강렬함을 품고 드림캐쳐의 스토리를 녹여낸 댄스 퍼포먼스로 청자들에게 색다른 희열을 선사하는 것. 낯설음으로 시작했던 드림캐쳐만의 색깔이 이제는 대중들에게 확실히 각인될 시기가 도래했다.
드림캐쳐는 전작 'Escape the ERA'를 "악몽의 마침표가 아닌 쉼표"로 수식한 바 있다. 이과 같은 의미에서 3rd Mini Album 'Alone In The City'는 '악몽' 시리즈의 배턴을 이어받는 작품이자, 드림캐쳐가 그려가는 '악몽'의 두 번째 챕터인 셈이다.
이제, 드림캐쳐의 '새로운 악몽'이 눈을 뜰 때다.
