Background and conception
On October 7, 2025, Jannabi announced the release of the second part of their fourth studio album, Sound of Music, scheduled for October 21, through a teaser video on their official social media channels. The subtitle "life" is a chapter that reconstructs Jannabi’s philosophy of life, which has been seen in songs like "Dreams, Books, Power and Walls", "As Tears Go By," and "I Know Where The Rainbow Has Fallen" with the sensibility of the present. The first part of the series Sound of Music Pt. 1 which came out in April, captured the romance of spring and the vitality of youth. The second part layers the depth of an orchestra with the texture of folk and classical music to deepen the introspective emotions of autumn. It continues Jannabi's exploration of life through music, offering a fresh, more mature perspective while delving into deeper stories about adulthood and life in general, according to Peponi Music, the band's agency.
The album jacket captures two members leaping against a hill backdrop. The red lettering title in a diagonal frame with a film texture adds retro aesthetics. The band also shared a partial tracklist and lyric previews for its fourth studio album through its official social media channels, starting on October 11.
Track listing All lyrics are written by Choi Jung-hoon. All tracks are composed and arranged by Choi and Kim Do-hyung. All tracks are produced by Choi.
