The Billage of Perception : Chapter Two (stylized as the Billage of perception : chapter two) is the third mini album by Billlie. It was released on August 31, 2022 with "Ring Ma Bell (What a Wonderful World)" serving as the album's title track.

The physical release is available in three versions: Lux, Mane, and Quies.

Background

On August 7, 2022, MYSTIC Story confirmed reports that Billlie was preparing to make a comeback with the second installment of their 'Billage of perception' series sometime later in the month. Later, a teaser poster posted across the group's social medias revealed the comeback work's title, format, and release date.

Composition

The album has incorporated various genres such as hard rock, synth-pop, and pop-R&B. During the showcase, the group revealed that the storyline and the lyricism is connected to their debut EP, The Billage of Perception: Chapter One. The opening track, "My B = The Birth of Emotion", is a synth-pop number with a "psychedelic" synth phrase. The second and the pop-R&B track "B'rave ~ A Song for Matilda" is inspired by the 1988 novel Matilda written by Roald Dahl. The third and the title track "Ring Ma Bell (What a Wonderful World)" is a hard rock number that starts with a 70's crunchy overdrive guitar riff. "Sun Palace (Stroop Effect)" is a follow-up for "Moon Palace" from their second EP The Collective Soul and Unconscious: Chapter One. "Mcguffins ~ Who's the Joker?" is a dance-pop track that fusions latin trap and Chicago hip hop. "Back 2 Where We Belong" is a rock number that acts as a fan song.

On August 31, 2022, Hanteo Chart reported that the album had recorded 43,823 copies sold in its first day of release, thus breaking the group's previous first-day sales record.
