Play with Earth! 0.03 is the second studio album by the South Korean indie rock band Wave to Earth, released on September 6, 2024, through Wavy. It follows their 2023 debut album, 0.1 Flaws and All.
Wave to Earth released their debut studio album, 0.1 Flaws and All in 2023. They only had two months to produce Play with Earth! 0.03.
The album is primarily a soft rock, indie rock, and dream pop album. Play with Earth! 0.03 keeps the band's usual sound from their last projects. It exhibits their signature blend of comfort, excitement, and melancholy with their youthfulness and playfulness.
The intro track, "Are You Bored?" is a short instrumental with qualities of lo-fi music and synth-pop. The title track, "Play With Earth!", is upbeat and contains an aquatic ambience that reminisces of the band's 2020 EP Wave 0.01. The third song, "Annie.", is the band's first explicit song and is a joyful narrative of the narrator getting over a girl who told lies about him. "Pueblo" was a song originally released in 2020 and is a more livelier song with elements of pop rock. "Beck." shows the narrator having insecurities about chasing his dreams, but later finding that he has his friends with him. The last two songs, "Slow Dive" and "Holyland", are slower, more soothing songs; the first half of the latter song is influenced by R&B and soul.
Play with Earth! 0.03 was released on September 6, 2024. To support the album, Wave to Earth embarked on a world tour.
