Why didn’t Maniac or Glitch Mode make much noise?

I remember the potential Billboard fraud being more talked about than Maniac the song itself. It didn’t feel like it made noise like God’s Menu/Thunderous either. Glitch Mode is not even as talked about as Love Dive even though Nct sales are 7 times higher than Ive. Why did these come backs make so little noise?

Because both songs weren't even slightly relevant outside of their fandom. The only people listening to them are their fans.

What are you talking about? MANIAC is literally Stray Kids most well-received song since God's Menu. It's been on Spotify Global for 27 days and counting. Also, the fastest 4th gen song to surpass 30 million streams so far.

cos they are bad.don`t know if the sm well got dry, cos even last exo song -dftf- is bad

I think it depends a lot on where you're looking and what people you're surrounding yourself with Maniac is doing well and I've seen a lot of non-stays talk about it and Oddinary as a whole

also I don't think it's fair to compare any Stray Kids song to God's Menu because before its release, people were convinced SKZ were done for and they'd stagnate for the rest of their career, the circumstances of its success were very dramatic

you're just not paying attention

Because the songs are still not good and people don't care anymore about giving them a listen...

Like most boy groups, they have a comeback and get a lot of hype the first day then have conversation around them drop off because people lose interest. Most boy groups these days don't hold people's attention.

Maniac seems to be very liked by nonfans

I think skz has a lot of casual listeners internationally

Tomboy overshadowed maniac.

Love dive overshadowed glitch mode.

Still life survived because bigbang is legendary unlike other two boy groups. Those two are nobodies compared to bigbang.

NCT Dream is making a lot of noise in Korea, which has always been their target. The fact that they charted on Billboard 200 at all when their entire promotional push (Korean radio shows, TV shows) has been centered around Korea with some Indonesia is pretty impressive. The tt reached #21 on the MelOn daily chart...

Just because people aren't talking about it here doesn't mean it's not successful.

The IT non-bts boygroup song hasn't come out yet. Even if it's true Glitch mode and Mania are performing great and even better than past releases from these groups, I agree they lack hype and there isn't as much people talking about the songs, at least not as much as Hot Sauce or Gods menu.

Because only the fans care about it. Granted this can be said about almost all groups, they just don't have wide reach outside of kpop stans

Those songs might be doing better on charts than each previous song by those groups but that doesn't mean they have hype or are popular among non listeners. It shows that they have huge fandoms which have grown a lot for the past months, fandoms which will mass stream like crazy

I don't think Maniac's effect is mass streaming when the difference between the filtered and unfiltered streams are only 54k streams.

And a special phenomenon I've noticed with boygroups is that, when the song is supported only by fans, the numbers are closer to the bsides, since the bsides themselves are very close in numbers with a few exceptions, since the fans support the whole album. But Maniac's streams total and daily streams are far from Venom.

What are they?

Fans are getting better at understanding how streaming works. There are many ways to make sure your views added by mass streaming don't get filtered

Maniac did make noise, maybe not nuch here on akp because stays are not hyping it everywhere but on twitter its very much hyped and talked about

For dream i certainly feel that hot sauce made more noise than it despite glitch mode being the better performing one so i guess it boils down to the song
