The Japanese-style resonance of the track is striking and suits her voice perfectly! At the same time, it skillfully incorporates an electronic approach to the sound—just what you’d expect from HoneyWorks.

LEMONADEI Don’t Like Mondays.
I Don’t Like Mondays.
is a rock band that’s been active since 2012.
While they do have songs that lean more pop with bold use of electronic sounds, this track has a light, polished feel reminiscent of Western pop rock.
There aren’t many domestic bands with this kind of vibe, so they’re a rare gem.
It’s highly recommended not only for fans of Western pop rock, but also as a great entry point for those who usually only listen to Japanese guitar rock.
LEGITINI
INI is an idol group formed on the audition program PRODUCE 101 JAPAN SEASON2.
Their style, which strikingly seems to draw directly from the musicality of K-pop—a recent trend—has won them popularity through high-level performances.
Among their songs, the one I especially recommend for its striking high notes is LEGIT.
Centered on hip-hop, it primarily stays in the low to mid-high range, but in the latter half it features high parts that use mixed voice.
Late Night WalkIchika Nito
Guitarist Ichika Nito—also active as a member of Dios and ichikoro—has been gaining attention in Japan and abroad for his enchanting sound woven from a single guitar.
His digital single “Late Night Walk,” released on November 13, 2023, immediately draws you into its world from the opening.
The clear, spacious guitar tone evokes vivid scenes even without vocals.
It’s a mellow instrumental piece distinguished by a truly one-of-a-kind ensemble.
RadioVisionJO1
JO1 is an 11-member boy group that even appeared on the 2022 Kohaku Uta Gassen.
Their song “RadioVision” carries the message that “this very moment we’re enjoying together will become a memory.” JO1 is well-known for handling a wide range of songs, from ballads to dance numbers, but their exceptionally danceable disco tunes are especially cool! It’s a perfect track for summer and fits a driving playlist perfectly.
Also, keep an ear out for how past song titles are woven into the lyrics.
RED ZONEJanne Da Arc
In 1999, the year that truly capped off the ’90s, Janne Da Arc made their major-label debut with the single “RED ZONE.” While presenting themselves as a visual-kei band, they earned strong support not only from women but also from men and young band musicians, thanks to songs that reflected hard rock and heavy metal influences and the band’s high-level instrumental prowess.
Among V-kei tracks, there aren’t many where every instrument asserts itself this fiercely right from the intro, are there? Together with the distinctive melody delivered by soaring vocals, this classic track showcased their direction to the world as a young rock band.
