Mini 6th album HOUSE OF TRICKY: WRECKING THE HOUSE wraps up the series, with SUPERPOWER highlighted by energy-drink, peak, and conviction.
Xikers have carried explosive energy into their music and performances since their debut, and after more than three years they have learned to temper that energy with growing finesse. The group has built momentum, aiming to leave an imprint of heat and momentum on every release and performance.
On October 31, they released Mini 6th album HOUSE OF TRICKY: WRECKING THE HOUSE, bringing the HOUSE OF TRICKY series to a close. The title track SUPERPOWER embodies keywords energy drink, peak, and conviction, signaling a surge of power as they push beyond their limits.
The band began the HOUSE OF TRICKY storyline with their March 2023 debut mini album HOUSE OF TRICKY: Doorbell Ringing, and over two years and seven months released five mini albums in total, culminating in this latest release. The members have expressed that finishing the series and showing their growth is a priority, even if it comes with some bittersweet feelings.
They describe the series as manga-like, a story that gathers, endures hardships, awakens, and finally unleashes SUPERPOWER. The narrative has drawn them into an immersive arc that resonates with their performances, driven by the energy and momentum of their artistry.
The journey has not always been easy—from the debut onward—yet the group recalls that the period of awakening and challenges occurred earlier this year. They point to the April release of Mini 5, SPUR, and the accompanying second world tour as pivotal moments, noting that a domestic solo concert added just three weeks prior brought fears to the surface.
When the team first announced a domestic show, they worried whether the short preparation period could yield a high-quality stage. Yet after discussions among the members, they decided to give it their all, and the concert left them with a sense of achievement and confidence that they could overcome big hurdles together.
Xikers delivered a performance that was intense yet infused with a sense of freedom and ease, with members pledging to deliver an even more evolved stage. They also teased that the choreography remains demanding, incorporating a freer vibe from college festivals into the new material, which they believe will feel different from their previous performances.
Having completed their second world tour, Xikers now wraps up the first series, confident that all these experiences will synergize as they move forward. They want to remain a group that brings energy and heat, a team that feels like a perpetual hot summer.
Reflecting on their journey, the members remember how pivotal it was when fans told them, “Thank you for singing about a hot summer.” That moment of appreciation, they say, helped resolve many of their prior concerns and underscored the importance of maintaining a distinct identity.
Looking ahead, Xikers strive to keep delivering energy and heat on stage, aiming to stay a group that embodies a hot summer spirit for a long time. The crew also emphasized the mantra they often share: life is momentum, and they intend to keep moving forward with confidence and momentum.
