[NEWS] BIGBANG - MONSTER M/V RANK #5 ON THE BEST VIDEOS OF THE WEEK FOR STEREOGUM
5. BigBang – “Monster” (Dir. ?)
BigBang are obviously the greatest boy band in the known universe, and though their “Monster” video doesn’t approach the hallucinatory future-pop visions of “Fantastic Baby,” it still has explosions and high-kicks and inexplicable fashion decisions and a great beast’s-eye-view shot of a mad dash through a prison minefield, or something. Delightfully confusing, in the grandest K-pop tradition.Source : stereogum.com

[NEWS] BIGBANG "MONSTER" RANKS 3RD ON BILLBOARD'S SOCIAL 50 CHART
K-Pop act Big Bang shook things up online this week and rocketed its way up the Billboard Social 50 chart, rising 36-12 after ending the charting week with a YouTube video release of its newest single, "Monster."
The Social 50 chart ranks the most popular artists on YouTube, Vevo, Facebook, Twitter and MySpace, using a formula that blends weekly additions of friends/fans/followers along with weekly artist page views and weekly song plays.
The new single, "Monster," is from the South Korean group's newest release, "Still Alive - Special Edition," which was released last week and debuts at No. 3 on World Albums.
The album is a (quick) follow-up to Big Bang's Feb. 19 release, "Still Alive," and features both new tracks and special versions of the hits from the original such as "Blue," "Fantastic Baby" and "Bad Boy." On March 9, Big Bang dominated Billboard's K-Pop Hot 100 chart, capturing five of the top 10 spots on the tally with singles from "Still Alive."
K-Pop 100: Big Bang is Unstoppable
To obtain the massive 24-spot jump on the chart and nearly break the Top 10, Big Bang released a series of teaser clips for the "Monster" video before it dropped June 2, including a video of the Japanese version of "Fantastic Baby." These six video releases leading up to the actual release of "Monster" each gained between 500,000 and 2 million views apiece in the span of a week. That grand total of 10.3 million views allowed Big Bang to experience a 43% increase in fan acquisition during the charting week.

[VOTE] BIGBANG vs. Wonder Girls
Can vote once a day
Big Bang and the Wonder Girls faced off on the music charts with the release of their respective, albums Still Alive and Wonder Party this week, so it’s only appropriate that they go head to head in this week’s K-Pop Battle.
The two groups are credited for setting off the second generation idol group craze, and while the flood of new idol groups have temporarily filled the Big Bang and Wonder Girls-shaped void in our hearts throughout the years, very few idol groups can claim to be game changers in the K-Pop world.
But we want to know where our readers’ loyalties lie, so head over to the K-Pop section and cast your vote in this week’s K-Pop Battle.
Big Bang
Before Big Bang made its debut in 2006, the days of fans going crazy over an idol group were a distant memory as most of the popular boy bands and girl groups of the late 90s and early 2000s had either fizzled out or disbanded.
But, a quiet storm was brewing over at YG Entertainment, and when it finally unleashed its secret weapon Big Bang in 2006, the idol group lived up to its name, blowing up the music scene with its unconventionality.
Big Bang wasn’t unconventional in the way we understand the word today (basically, G-Dragon defined) then, but the group set out and proved to be a new breed of idol.
Unlike the genre-less, oft nonsensical songs of the 90s idol groups, Big Bang debuted with hip hop and R&B tracks We Belong Together and A Fool’s Only Tears, but it wasn’t until 2007 that the group developed a musical style that is uniquely ‘Big Bang’ through smash hit Lies.
The rest is history as every major release, from Last Farewell, Haru Haru, Tonight and Blue, have all charted at number one.
Big Bang’s latest release Monster from special edition album Still Alive claimed the number one spot on music charts upon its release on June 3. The fact that the track has become a hit without the group actively promoting it proves that Big Bang can make a lot of noise based on its name alone.

[NEWS] Big Bang’s ‘Extraordinary 20′s’ photo collection available through app stores
As reported earlier, Big Bang has released their first official photo book since their debut!
The photo book ‘Extraordinary 20′s‘ was released along with their special edition album ‘Still Alive‘ on June 6th, and contains photos depicting the normal life of Big Bang. The members look more approachable and laid back, which is a big change from their dramatic image they usually show on stage.
The pictorial, shot by famous photographer Hong Jang Hyun, was shot in London as well as Korea to capture the various images of the Big Bang members.
‘Extraordinary 20′s’ can be purchased on and off line, as well as through mobile app stores. For the mobile version, the pictorial has been divided into two different versions, London and Seoul. The London version has been released (android download here), while the Seoul version will be unveiled at the end of this month. The two versions will both be available through the Apple app store as well later this month!
